MICROSOFT CORPORATION as FEC employer text: $9.0 million

CORPORATION as typed, not the one-word brand

LobbyVault ranks grouped employer text. MICROSOFT CORPORATION is the form committees stored when filers typed the full legal suffix. The $8,998,472 total is those itemized individual gifts. It is not Microsoft’s disclosed PAC spending, not Azure or Office revenue, and not a NAICS 5112 software-publishing rollup.

The shorter MICROSOFT string is a different hub. People who typed MSFT, a subsidiary name, or ENGINEER without the company sit in other rows. LobbyVault does not recode those variants into MICROSOFT CORPORATION. Alumni who still type the CORPORATION form remain among the 461.

461 donors and 14,937 lines

461 unique donors produced 14,937 MICROSOFT CORPORATION contribution lines totaling $8,998,472. That is on the order of 32 itemized receipts per donor. Unique-donor count is smaller than the one-word MICROSOFT row; this legal-suffix cluster is a distinct stored string. The packet does not publish a mean gift as its own FEC field.

Party share is not on the industry headline. Independent expenditures and the company’s committee PAC filings are outside the $8,998,472 unless an individual receipt itself carries this employer string. Unitemized gifts never appear. Repeat names among 14,937 lines are expected.

GOOGLE INC. and IBM stay on their own pages

GOOGLE, GOOGLE INC., IBM, and ENGINEER are separate keys. Combining them with MICROSOFT CORPORATION would invent a tech-sector recode. This page stays at $8,998,472 for the CORPORATION spelling only.

Occupation pages show titles stored beside MICROSOFT CORPORATION — software engineer, program manager, retired — as typed. DEVELOPER remains an occupation-style row that may include people who omitted the company.

Donor table without product inference

The MICROSOFT CORPORATION donor table lists disclosed names, amounts, and recipient committees. A large gift is a public individual contribution. LobbyVault does not attach a cloud contract, an antitrust caption, or a motive to that line. The FEC field is not an HR export.

Follow committees on the table for party and office. This guide does not assign a partisan percentage to the CORPORATION spelling. Coverage is itemized federal individual receipts only.

FEC.gov via LobbyVault: $8,998,472, 14,937 contributions, 461 donors, top employer MICROSOFT CORPORATION. Labels are FEC employer/occupation self-reports, not NAICS. Unitemized gifts, state races, and the company PAC are omitted.

Keep this $8,998,472 on the CORPORATION string. MICROSOFT without the suffix is another key. Occupation breakdowns show titles beside MICROSOFT CORPORATION. Cite FEC.gov via LobbyVault, not a NAICS software table.

Short MICROSOFT and ENGINEER remain other keys

MICROSOFT CORPORATION is not the shorter MICROSOFT hub, not MSFT, and not GOOGLE INC. or IBM. Those strings sit on other keys. The $8,998,472 total, 14,937 contribution lines, and 461 donors describe this CORPORATION spelling only. ENGINEER and DEVELOPER still hold staff who omitted the company.

Unitemized gifts, state races, independent expenditures that lack this employer string, and the company PAC stay outside the $8,998,472. Occupation pages show titles beside MICROSOFT CORPORATION. Alumni who still type the CORPORATION suffix remain in the 461. The FEC field is not an HR export and not NAICS 5112.

Open the MICROSOFT CORPORATION donor table for disclosed names and committees. A large gift is a public individual contribution, not a cloud-contract or antitrust-caption inference. Cite $8,998,472, 14,937 contributions, and 461 donors from FEC.gov via LobbyVault. Labels are FEC employer/occupation self-reports. Do not merge the one-word MICROSOFT row into this CORPORATION spelling.

Researchers who want a Microsoft family recode must list the short MICROSOFT hub as a separate addition. The $8,998,472 figure does not absorb that row. It stays on MICROSOFT CORPORATION as 461 donors and 14,937 lines. GOOGLE INC. and IBM stay on their own pages. ENGINEER still holds omitted company names. Follow recipient committees on the MICROSOFT CORPORATION donor table. Party share is not computed on the industry headline.

Questions

How much have MICROSOFT CORPORATION-listed donors given federally?

LobbyVault attributes $8,998,472 to the MICROSOFT CORPORATION employer string, from 14,937 contributions and 461 donors. These are itemized individual receipts, not the company’s PAC and not a NAICS software-publishing total. Unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted from that figure.

Is this the same as the MICROSOFT page?

No. MICROSOFT is a shorter employer string with a separate hub. The $8,998,472 total is only receipts whose grouped text is MICROSOFT CORPORATION. LobbyVault does not merge the two spellings. Figures here are limited to this FEC string as indexed on LobbyVault.

Does this include Google or IBM employees?

No. GOOGLE INC. and IBM are separate employer strings. A receipt counted here carries the grouped text MICROSOFT CORPORATION. Staff who typed only ENGINEER sit in that occupation-style row instead. Unitemized gifts are omitted. Coverage is itemized federal individual receipts only.

How many unique donors listed MICROSOFT CORPORATION?

The rollup counts 461 donors and 14,937 contribution lines. Repeat gifts raise the receipt count — on the order of 32 itemized receipts per donor. This is not an employee headcount from the company. Coverage is itemized federal receipts only.
