$1,483,679 in itemized individual contributions is the 2014-cycle join for the occupation grouping Developer. FEC.gov aggregates count 761 contributions from 233 donors. Across every cycle the same string totals $33,132,163, so 2014 holds about 4.5% of the lifetime bucket. The word remains generic — software, real estate, and other jobs share it — and this page is the midterm window, not the presidential-year cell.
Key figures
- $1,483,679 joins the Developer occupation grouping to the 2014 FEC cycle.
- 761 contributions from 233 donors produced that cell.
- 2014 is about 4.5% of the grouping’s $33,132,163 lifetime total.
- Developer is a generic self-reported string; this join is 2014 only.
Developer × 2014 as a separate join
The occupation hub stacks all cycles. A 2012 Developer relationship page, if present, uses a different cycle key. This page uses 2014: $1,483,679 from 761 itemized gifts and 233 unique donors. Mixing those cells would invent a combined year the packet does not contain.
Average contribution is about $1,950; average per donor is about $6,368. Those means sit a little above the 2012 Developer averages in this table, with fewer gifts and fewer donors — a smaller midterm cell, not a new definition of the word.
Real Estate Developer remains a separate grouping if stored separately.
Four-and-a-half percent of a $33 million bucket
$1,483,679 divided by $33,132,163 is about 4.5%. Other windows hold about 95.5%. A midterm cell at 4.5% is a thin slice of a multi-cycle occupation string, consistent with lower national individual totals outside presidential years.
The industry hub is the place to compare 2014 with other Developer cycle cells. This tie only certifies the 2014 arithmetic.

Questions
- How much did Developer-labeled donors give in 2014?
- The Developer grouping’s 2014 cell is $1,483,679 in itemized individual contributions, from 761 contributions and 233 donors, based on FEC.gov aggregates. That join is not a PAC total and not the $33,132,163 all-cycle occupation total.
- Is this the same as the Developer 2012 page?
- No. Both pages share the same occupation grouping and the same lifetime total of $33,132,163, but the cycle keys differ. 2014 is $1,483,679 from 233 donors. This join is only the 2014 overlap. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the industry hub holds other cycles; the cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.
- Does Developer mean software or real estate?
- The bucket does not say. It is the self-reported string Developer. Software, real estate, and other uses can land in the same cell. A longer string such as Real Estate Developer is a separate grouping if stored separately. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the industry hub holds other cycles; the cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.
- Is this the same as federal spending on development projects?
- No. These numbers are FEC individual contribution aggregates. USAspending records federal awards. This page does not claim that campaign gifts funded those awards. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the industry hub holds other cycles; the cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.
