CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES money in federal elections

Ampersand firm name, not a lobbying-disclosure recode

LobbyVault ranks grouped employer text. CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES is the ampersand spelling as committees stored it. The $4,116,084 total is those itemized gifts. It is not LDA registration dollars, not a client-billings total, and not a NAICS public-relations category.

People who typed CASSIDY AND ASSOCIATES without the ampersand, CASSIDY ASSOCIATES, or LOBBYIST without the firm sit in other rows. LobbyVault does not collapse those spellings into this key. Researchers who want a combined Cassidy family must recode after export.

222 donors and a dense receipt file

222 unique donors produced 11,008 CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES contribution lines totaling $4,116,084. That is on the order of 50 itemized receipts per donor—among the densest firm patterns in this slice—and a mean gift near $374. Mean per donor is about $18,541.

Party share is not on the industry headline. Independent expenditures and the firm’s committee PAC filings are outside the $4,116,084 unless an individual receipt itself carries this employer string. Unitemized gifts never appear.

LOBBYIST as a title stays separate

LOBBYIST, GOVERNMENT RELATIONS, and AND ASSOCIATES without Cassidy are separate employer-name or title keys. Combining them with CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES would mix distinct FEC fields. This page reports $4,116,084 for the ampersand firm only.

Occupation pages show titles stored beside the firm. LOBBYIST and CONSULTANT exist as industry keys when donors put the function in the employer box instead of CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES.

Donor table

The CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES donor table lists disclosed names, amounts, and recipient committees. A large gift is a public individual contribution. LobbyVault does not attach a client list, an LDA filing, or a motive to that line. Alumni who still type the ampersand firm share the string with current staff. The FEC field is not a lobbying roster.

Repeat names are expected among 11,008 lines from 222 people. Follow committees on the table for party and office. This page does not assign a partisan percentage to the firm string.

Ampersand Cassidy versus LOBBYIST as a title

CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES keyed $4.1M from 11,008 contributions and 222 donors. About 50 itemized gifts per person is arithmetic on the packet, not a utilization rate for the firm. LOBBYIST remains a title page. Unitemized gifts and firm PAC documents remain omitted.

Keep $4,116,084, 11,008 contributions, and 222 donors on this ampersand string. Occupation breakdowns show titles stored beside the brand. The donor table lists disclosed recipients; this guide does not assign party percentages. Cite FEC.gov via LobbyVault, not a NAICS public-relations total.

Read $4,116,084 as the ampersand CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES cluster only. The 11,008 contributions and 222 donors are matching-text counts on FEC.gov via LobbyVault. About 50 gifts per person, a mean gift near $374, and about $18,541 per donor are packet arithmetic. That receipt density is among the thicker firm patterns in this slice; it is not a utilization rate for the lobbying shop. Unitemized gifts and firm PAC filings sit outside the $4.1M unless an individual receipt itself carries this employer string. CASSIDY AND ASSOCIATES without the ampersand, LOBBYIST, and GOVERNMENT RELATIONS remain other keys.

LDA registration dollars are a different disclosure system and are not imported into this FEC rollup. LobbyVault does not attach a client list to any donor-table line. Occupation breakdowns list titles stored beside the ampersand firm. Cite FEC.gov via LobbyVault. Industry labels come from FEC employer/occupation self-reports, not NAICS. Open the CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES donor table for line-level detail. This page does not treat $4,116,084 as a NAICS public-relations total. All industries lists other government-relations employer strings without merging them here. Repeat names among 11,008 lines are expected from 222 donors.

Questions

How much have CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES-listed donors given federally?

LobbyVault attributes $4,116,084 to the CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES employer string, from 11,008 contributions and 222 donors. These are itemized individual receipts, not the firm’s PAC and not a NAICS public-relations total. Unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted. Figures are limited to that FEC employer string as indexed on LobbyVault.

Is this the same as LDA lobbying totals?

No. LDA filings are a different disclosure system. The $4.1M total is FEC itemized individual receipts whose employer text grouped to CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES. LobbyVault does not import LDA client billings into this row. Unitemized gifts are omitted. Cite FEC.gov via LobbyVault.

Does this include people who typed only LOBBYIST?

No. LOBBYIST is a separate title string. A receipt counted here carries the grouped text CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES. Staff who typed GOVERNMENT RELATIONS without the firm sit in that title row instead. Figures on this answer are limited to that FEC employer string as indexed on LobbyVault.

How many unique donors listed CASSIDY & ASSOCIATES?

The rollup counts 222 donors and 11,008 contribution lines. Repeat gifts raise the receipt count. This is not an employee headcount from the firm. Figures are limited to the FEC string as indexed on LobbyVault; unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted.
