CISCO SYSTEMS money in federal elections

Two-word networking brand on the receipt

LobbyVault ranks grouped employer text. CISCO SYSTEMS is the form with both words present. The $5,443,189 total is those itemized individual gifts. It is not router-unit shipments, not a federal IT-contract obligated total, and not a NAICS rollup of all networking employers. People who typed CISCO, CISCO SYSTEMS INC, or a business-unit name sit in other rows if stored that way.

The FEC field is not a badge export from a campus or a sales region. Former employees who still type CISCO SYSTEMS share the key with current staff. LobbyVault does not recode the one-word CISCO brand into this two-word label. Occupation pages show titles stored beside the employer.

515 donors and 11,872 lines

515 unique donors produced 11,872 CISCO SYSTEMS contribution lines totaling $5,443,189. That is on the order of 23 itemized receipts per donor. The packet does not publish a mean gift or a split among engineering, sales, and corporate payrolls.

Party share is not on the industry headline. Independent expenditures and the company’s committee PAC filings are outside the $5,443,189 unless an individual receipt itself carries this employer string. Unitemized gifts never appear. Repeat names among 11,872 lines from 515 people are expected.

Other tech-employer strings

Other networking and software employer strings are separate keys on the industry index. Combining them with CISCO SYSTEMS would be a researcher-built enterprise-IT recode. This page stays at $5,443,189 for CISCO SYSTEMS only.

ENGINEER and SOFTWARE ENGINEER still hold staff who omitted the company name. Occupation breakdowns are the place to inspect those titles. State filings are omitted from the federal total.

Donor table

The CISCO SYSTEMS donor table lists disclosed names, amounts, and recipient committees. A large gift is a public individual contribution. LobbyVault does not attach a product line, a federal contract, or a motive to that line. The 515 unique-person count is not an employee headcount from the company.

Follow committees on the table for party and office. This page does not assign a partisan percentage to the networking string. People who typed CISCO only are not in these 515 unless a receipt also grouped to CISCO SYSTEMS.

Two-word networking receipts versus the company PAC

CISCO SYSTEMS as two words is the stored key behind $5,443,189. One-word CISCO and CISCO SYSTEMS INC, if stored, are other rows. Committee PAC filings are other FEC documents. Unitemized gifts stay outside the 11,872 lines from 515 donors.

About 23 receipts per person is 11,872 divided by 515. That is a mid-volume itemized pattern, not a campus headcount and not a sales-region census. The packet does not split engineering, sales, and corporate payrolls. Occupation pages show engineer titles stored beside the two-word brand.

Questions
