Contributions

Unique Donors

The Boeing Γ— 2008 intersection totals $284,511. Itemized individual receipts on FEC.gov produced 464 lines from 225 donors. Lifetime storage for the same exact string is $14,415,064; 2008 is about 2.0% of that figure. The join is aerospace employer text, not a Boeing PAC, THE BOEING COMPANY as a longer sibling, or USAspending awards to Boeing entities.

Key figures

  • Join total: $284,511 for Boeing in the 2008 cycle.
  • Volume: 464 itemized contributions, 225 donors (about 2.1 lines per donor).
  • 2.0% of the $14,415,064 lifetime grouping is this window.
  • Exact string BOEING; neighboring spellings are other keys.
  • Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates.

The Boeing Γ— 2008 join

LobbyVault stores FEC employer/industry strings separately from election cycles. Crossing them for Boeing and 2008 yields $284,511. That is 464 itemized lines and 225 unique donors. The figure is not a committee’s reported disbursement. FEC.gov remains the underlying source.

Aerospace employer text can collide with similar form text. This join uses the exact grouping BOEING. THE BOEING COMPANY is a longer sibling string. Division names are other keys. Federal aerospace awards in USAspending are a different dataset and are not funded by these itemized gifts. Neighboring stored labels include THE BOEING COMPANY, BOEING CO, BOEING CORPORATION, and named Boeing divisions. LobbyVault does not merge those strings into $284,511. The 225 donor identities are contributor keys, not a headcount of a workforce.

Dropping either filter changes the story. Drop the year and you see $14,415,064. Drop the string and you see the entire 2008 cycle. This page holds both filters at once.

Lifetime Boeing money versus 2008

A lifetime figure of $14,415,064 can swallow a single cycle if the join is skipped. 2008 is $284,511, about 2.0%. The leftover $14,130,553 belongs on other cycle pages for the same string, not in this cell.

$14,415,064 is still only this exact grouping. It is not every related company name and not a sector total. 2.0% describes 2008 inside Boeing, nothing else. $14,415,064 is the running sum for exact string BOEING. 2008 contributes $284,511 (2.0%); the complement is $14,130,553 (98.0%). Changing one character in the employer field would move money to another grouping and change both the numerator and the denominator.
