  • Counts: 324 contributions, 120 donors.

Reading $366,255 as an intersection

$366,255 is the amount that survives both filters. The employer filter is Akin Gump (AKIN GUMP). The cycle filter is 2008. FEC.gov itemized individual contributions supply the dollars, the 324 lines, and the 120 donors.

Because the grouping is law-firm employer text, the cell is a text match. Household members, retirees, and former workers can reuse a workplace or title. The Commission does not audit those claims on this aggregate.

Use the industry hub when the question is every cycle for Akin Gump. Use the 2008 election cycle when the question is every string that year. Use this tie when the question is both.
