Contributions

Unique Donors

Donors listing Construction reported $375,677 in itemized individual contributions during the 2010 federal election cycle, according to FEC.gov aggregates. Those dollars arrived in 387 contributions from 134 donors. The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $10,512,594; the 2010 slice is about 3.6% of that running sum. CONSTRUCTION is grouped occupation text as stored on FEC individual receipts — not a BLS construction-employment total, not a NAICS 23 census, and not a contractor PAC.

Key figures

  • Construction × 2010 is $375,677 in itemized individual contributions.
  • The cell includes 387 contributions from 134 donors.
  • 2010 is about 3.6% of the grouping’s $10,512,594 all-cycle total.
  • The label is self-reported form text, not a BLS construction-employment total, not a NAICS 23 census, and not a contractor PAC.
  • FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.

Construction crossed with 2010

Occupation groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Construction and 2010 — sum to $375,677. 387 itemized contributions and 134 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. This page joins the occupation grouping Construction to cycle 2010; it is not a restatement of either hub alone.

Neither the Construction hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. 134 unique donors and 387 lines in 2010 sit under the stored string CONSTRUCTION. CONTRACTOR, GENERAL CONTRACTOR, CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, and BUILDER stay on their own keys if filers used them. GSA, USACE, or other construction USAspending rows are a different file and are not funded by these itemized gifts. Campaign contributions are not federal awards.

3.6% of the Construction roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $10,512,594 ($10.5 million). The 2010 slice of $375,677 is about 3.6% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 96.4%, or $10,136,917. Treating 2010 as the Construction FEC story would ignore that remainder. Quote $375,677 when the sentence is about 2010. Quote $10,512,594 when the sentence is about the grouping across cycles. Do not add those two dollar figures; the first is already inside the second.

Treat $10,512,594 as the denominator for the 3.6% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2010 from being folded silently into $10,512,594. 3.6% is $375,677 divided by $10,512,594. Rounding to $375,677 and $10.5 million does not create extra facts. Use exact integers in a table. Use the rounded forms only as headlines of those same integers.

Questions

How much did Construction donors give in 2010?
FEC.gov aggregates show $375,677 in itemized individual contributions for the Construction grouping in the 2010 cycle, across 387 contributions and 134 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $10,512,594 all-cycle figure. Cite FEC.gov for the Construction × 2010 join.
What share of Construction FEC money is 2010?
The grouping’s all-cycle total is $10,512,594. The 2010 cell of $375,677 is about 3.6% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 96.4% ($10,136,917) on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the Construction hub holds other cycles.
Is this Construction’s PAC or an official account?
No. $375,677 is itemized individual receipts whose employer or occupation text grouped to Construction. Committee PAC filings and official organization accounts sit outside this rollup. The key is not a BLS construction-employment total, not a NAICS 23 census, and not a contractor PAC. Filings remain on FEC.gov.
Where is the overlay for the Construction 2010 join?
Open Construction 2010 for the cycle overlay, Construction for the grouping hub, and the 2010 election cycle for the year without this filter. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. This JSON file names the join; the overlay holds the itemized rows.
