DENTIST

Dentist as stored text, 2010 as cycle

Employer and occupation groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Dentist and 2010 — sum to $1,049,775. 1,623 itemized contributions and 735 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.

Neither the Dentist hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. Dentist is a self-reported title, not a state dental-board licensee file and not an ADA membership roll. 735 donors and 1,623 lines in 2010 matched that word. DDS, DMD, DENTAL, ORTHODONTIST, and named dental practices sit in other keys. This page is the stored string DENTIST.

LobbyVault keeps this two-key page so a reader can open Dentist 2010 without treating the industry hub as a cycle total or the 2010 cycle hub as an employer total. The overlay at the Dentist 2010 path holds the itemized rows for this cell. This prose publishes the packet snapshot: $1,049,775, 1,623 contributions, 735 donors, and 2.8% of $37,234,621.

2.8% of the Dentist roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $37,234,621. The 2010 slice of $1,049,775 is about 2.8% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 97.2% ($36,184,846). Treating 2010 as the Dentist FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $37,234,621 as the denominator for the 2.8% 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 $37,234,621.

A 2.8% cell can sit next to larger or smaller even-year windows on the same Dentist hub. This packet does not publish those other cycle dollars, so they are not cited here. Open Dentist to drop the year filter. Open the 2010 election cycle to drop the employer filter.

How much did Dentist donors give in 2010?

FEC.gov aggregates show $1,049,775 in itemized individual contributions for the Dentist grouping in the 2010 cycle, across 1,623 contributions and 735 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $37,234,621 all-cycle figure.

What share of Dentist FEC money is 2010?

The grouping’s all-cycle total is $37,234,621. The 2010 cell of $1,049,775 is about 2.8% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 97.2% ($36,184,846) on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the Dentist hub holds other cycles; the 2010 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.

Does this include only licensed or currently employed Dentist donors?

No. The bucket is the self-reported string DENTIST. The FEC does not verify licenses or current jobs. Related phrases may sit in other groupings. This join reports the string match for 2010 only, totaling $1,049,775 from 735 donors.

Where is the overlay for the Dentist 2010 join?

Open Dentist 2010 for the cycle overlay, Dentist for the grouping hub, and the 2010 election cycle for the year without this employer filter. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. This JSON file names the join; the overlay holds the itemized rows.
