$114,300 in itemized individual contributions is the 2008-cycle join for the employer grouping American Financial Corp. FEC.gov aggregates count 37 contributions from 11 donors. The same string totals $5,465,008 across every cycle in this table, so the cell is about 2.1% of the lifetime bucket — financial-firm employer text meeting a two-year window, not American Financial as a corporate treasury or an insurance PAC rollup.

Key figures

  • American Financial Corp × 2008 is $114,300 in itemized individual contributions.
  • The cell includes 37 contributions from 11 donors.
  • 2008 is about 2.1% of the grouping’s $5,465,008 all-cycle total.
  • The label is self-reported form text (financial-firm employer text), not American Financial as a corporate treasury or an insurance PAC rollup.
  • FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.

American Financial Corp as stored text, 2008 as cycle

Employer and occupation groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — AMERICAN FINANCIAL CORP and 2008 — sum to $114,300. 37 itemized contributions and 11 unique donors produced it. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables. Cite FEC.gov for this intersection.

Neither the American Financial Corp hub nor the 2008 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. American Financial Corp is financial-firm employer text, not a verified payroll file. 11 donors and 37 lines in 2008 matched that stored string. People who typed a neighboring spelling sit in other buckets. Named affiliates and related titles are other keys. This page is the exact string AMERICAN FINANCIAL CORP.

The join exists so a reader does not treat $5,465,008 (all cycles for this string) as the 2008 story, and does not treat the 2008 cycle hub as a American Financial Corp-only list. Two filters, one cell: $114,300.

2.1% of the American Financial Corp roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $5,465,008. The 2008 slice of $114,300 is about 2.1% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 97.9% ($5,350,708). Treating 2008 as the entire American Financial Corp FEC story would ignore that remainder. The industry hub is the year index for this string.

Treat $5,465,008 as the denominator for the 2.1% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. This tie keeps 2008 from being folded silently into $5,465,008. Neighboring spellings are not added into either figure.
