Contributions

Unique Donors

Receipts grouped to the string CORPORATION account for $10,063,141 in the 2014 election cycle, according to FEC.gov aggregates on LobbyVault. That slice is 14 contributions from 2 donors. The all-cycle CORPORATION total is $66,264,486. Cycle 2014 is 15.2% of that parent book. CORPORATION is a generic word that appears on FEC employer fields — not a census of every incorporated firm, not NAICS, and not a merge of Apple, Exxon, or any legal name that includes the word. This page joins that generic key to cycle 2014.

  • The all-cycle generic-string total is $66,264,486; 2014 is 15.2% of that book.

A two-donor book under a dictionary word

Two unique contributors produced 14 itemized lines totaling $10.1 million in 2014. The dollars are concentrated; the label is not. Filers sometimes type CORPORATION when they mean a generic status rather than a legal employer. LobbyVault groups what was stored. It does not expand the string into the entire corporate sector.

The parent total of $66,264,486 shows other cycles hold most of this generic key. 2014’s $10,063,141 is 15.2%. Adding cycle and parent dollars would double-count.

People who typed a full legal name ending in CORP or INC are usually on those name keys, not necessarily here. The Corporation 2014 overlay lists the two 2014 donors as disclosed.

2014 is a midterm clock on a generic string

FEC cycle 2014 is the two-year federal window labeled 2014. This join does not treat CORPORATION as a BLS sector for that midterm. The 2014 election cycle hub shows named employers beside this generic word.

Party split is not in the packet. Recipient rows are on the overlay.
