What chief-operating-officer donors give in federal races

Spelled-out operations rank, mid-range means

$10,490,066, 20,331 itemizations, and 1,450 donor records are the occupation-level facts. Mean contribution size is about $516. Mean dollars per donor record are about $7,234. Repeat giving is about 14 itemizations per donor record.

20,331 lines from 1,450 records is a mid-volume C-suite stack, close in dollars to the spelled-out CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER key but on fewer donor records. The $516 per-line mean is arithmetic, not a typical operations bonus redirected to politics.

The packet has no public-versus-private split, no median gift, and no party field. A few large itemizations can lift the average.

CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER is not the COO abbreviation

The FEC record does not verify that the donor is a sitting operations chief. Nonprofit COOs, private-company operators, and retirees can all appear. Best-efforts rules do not force a controlled officer vocabulary.

This page cites only $10,490,066, 20,331 contributions, and 1,450 donors. The three-letter COO key, if it exists as a separate occupation page, is not rolled into this total unless the bulk extract normalized it.

Donor records and dual executive titles

1,450 donor records used CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER on at least one matching itemization. Address variants split records. A person who listed CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER on some gifts and COO on others will appear in both occupation totals for those lines.

Occupation is stored per transaction. LobbyVault does not infer party from the spelled-out rank.

Industry pages group employers

Industry pages group employers. A COO in health care and a COO in logistics share this occupation string if they typed CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER. Adding $10,490,066 to an industry total double-counts.

Open the CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER occupation page for rows. Use the occupations index to place the spelled-out rank next to COO and other executive titles.

Citation language

A usable sentence is: occupation equals CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER, dollars equal $10,490,066, contributions equal 20,331, donors equal 1,450, sourced from FEC Form 3/3X itemizations indexed on LobbyVault.

Unitemized receipts never carry an occupation code. Quote the three facts together so the mid-range mean is visible next to the headline dollars.

Reading the spelled-out operations rank next to COO

CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER in this extract is $10,490,066 on 20,331 itemizations from 1,450 donor records, or $10.5 million in compact millions. Those dollars are itemized activity on FEC Form 3 and Form 3X schedules indexed on LobbyVault from FEC.gov bulk data. Unitemized receipts never carry an occupation code, so they never enter the total. Refunds and memo entries follow FEC presentation in the underlying schedules. People who type COO, president, or general manager may sit on other occupation pages. Only the exact CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER key is in $10,490,066.

Arithmetic means on this key are about $516 per contribution and about $7,234 per donor record, with roughly 14 itemizations per donor record. Means are not medians. The packet has no gift-size distribution and no party split. Combining CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER with the COO abbreviation without naming each source total changes the unit from one FEC string to a homemade cluster. 1,450 donor records on 20,331 lines is a mid-volume spelled-out rank pool, not a public-company operations census.

Industry pages group employer-side categories and should not be added to $10,490,066. A person who listed CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER on some gifts and a neighboring title on others will appear in both occupation totals for the respective lines. A public-record citation that stays inside the packet is: occupation equals CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER, dollars equal $10,490,066, contributions equal 20,331, donors equal 1,450. Candidate and committee pages hold the recipient side.

Researchers who need cycle cuts, employer text, or recipient lists should leave this guide and open the live CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER occupation hub. This file restates harvested packet facts only. Compact millions ($10.5 million) are the same headline amount as $10,490,066, rounded to one decimal place. Keep 20,331 contributions and 1,450 donor records in any sentence that quotes the dollars, so readers can see the spelled-out rank separately from the COO abbreviation. Exact-string matching is the method. Anything else is a different query. The occupation field is donor-supplied free text, not a public-company officer filing. A citation that stays inside the packet names CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER, $10,490,066, 20,331, and 1,450 together.
