What GENERAL MANAGER donors give in federal races

Donors who wrote GENERAL MANAGER on federal itemizations account for $26,732,218 in receipts indexed from FEC.gov bulk files. That total sits on 86,873 contributions tied to 5,386 donor records. The two-word rank is stored apart from MANAGER, MANAGEMENT, and EXECUTIVE. In compact form the occupation total is $26.7 million.

Key figures

  • GENERAL MANAGER itemizations sum to $26,732,218 from 86,873 contributions and 5,386 donors.
  • MANAGER and MANAGEMENT are separate FEC occupation buckets.
  • Mean amounts are about $308 per contribution and about $4,963 per donor record.
  • The two-word rank is donor-typed Form 3/3X text, not a verified unit-head registry.

Two-word rank, mid-volume file

$26,732,218, 86,873 itemizations, and 5,386 donor records describe this occupation filter. Mean contribution size is about $308. Mean dollars per donor record is about $4,963. Repeat giving is about 16 itemizations per donor record.

The per-line mean sits with other mid-volume professional titles. The packet has no median and no sector split (hospitality, manufacturing, sports, and other uses of the title share the string).

These means are arithmetic, not typical-check estimates.

General manager is not manager

MANAGER and MANAGEMENT are neighboring occupation pages. Donors who specify GENERAL MANAGER land here. Combining those keys without showing each source total mixes rank labels the bulk file kept apart.

This page cites only $26,732,218, 86,873 contributions, and 5,386 donors. The FEC record does not verify that the donor runs a unit or a venue.

Donor-record limits

5,386 donor records used GENERAL MANAGER on at least one matching itemization. Address variants split records. A person who listed this two-word rank on some gifts and MANAGER on others will appear in both occupation totals for those lines.

Occupation is stored per transaction. LobbyVault does not infer party from the title.

Industry pages remain employer-side

Industry tables group employers. General managers in different sectors share this occupation string if they typed GENERAL MANAGER. Adding $26,732,218 to an industry total double-counts.

Open the GENERAL MANAGER occupation page for rows. Use the occupations index to see MANAGER and MANAGEMENT as separate keys.

Citation

Name both words: GENERAL MANAGER itemizations in FEC bulk data indexed on LobbyVault sum to $26,732,218 on 86,873 contributions from 5,386 donor records. Source: FEC Form 3/3X schedules.

Unitemized receipts never carry an occupation code. If a brief needs “managers as a group,” list GENERAL MANAGER, MANAGER, and MANAGEMENT as separate lines.

A venue-and-plant title without a sector tag

GENERAL MANAGER in this extract is $26,732,218 on 86,873 itemizations from 5,386 donor records, or $26.7 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; this guide does not invent a fourth occupation-level fact. Hotels, factories, and sports teams all use GENERAL MANAGER. The occupation column stores the words, not the workplace type. The occupation field is donor-supplied free text, not a NAICS industry code and not a licensing roster.

Arithmetic means on this key are about $308 per contribution and about $4,963 per donor record, with roughly 16 itemizations per donor record. Means are not medians. The packet has no gift-size distribution and no party split. Neighboring strings such as MANAGER and MANAGEMENT remain other occupation pages unless the bulk extract normalized them to GENERAL MANAGER. Combining those keys without naming each source total changes the unit from one FEC string to a homemade cluster. 86,873 lines from 5,386 donor records is a two-word mid-volume rank, heavier than MANAGEMENT’s vagueness and distinct from MANAGER’s shorter key.

Industry pages group employer-side categories and should not be added to $26,732,218. A person who listed GENERAL MANAGER on some gifts and a neighboring title on others will appear in both occupation totals for the respective lines, because occupation is stored per transaction. A public-record citation that stays inside the packet is: occupation equals GENERAL MANAGER, dollars equal $26,732,218, contributions equal 86,873, donors equal 5,386. Candidate and committee pages hold the recipient side. LobbyVault does not infer motive from the occupation column.

Researchers who need cycle cuts, employer text, or recipient lists should leave this guide and open the live occupation hub. This file restates harvested packet facts only. Compact millions ($26.7 million) are the same headline amount as $26,732,218, rounded to one decimal place. Keep the contribution count and the donor-record count in any sentence that quotes the dollars, so readers can see whether GENERAL MANAGER is a high-volume stack, a concentrated pool, or a high-repeat status label. Exact-string matching is the method. Anything else is a different query.
