$924,482 in itemized individual contributions is the 2010-cycle join for the occupation grouping Engineer. FEC.gov aggregates count 1,065 contributions from 305 donors. The same string totals $24,337,583 across every cycle in this table, so the cell is about 3.8% of the lifetime bucket — a self-reported title meeting a two-year window, not an engineers PAC and not an engineering NAICS total.
Key figures
- Engineer × 2010 is $924,482 in itemized individual contributions.
- The cell includes 1,065 contributions from 305 donors.
- 2010 is about 3.8% of the grouping’s $24,337,583 all-cycle total.
- The label is filer-entered form text, not an engineers PAC and not an engineering NAICS total.
- FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.
Engineer as stored text, 2010 as cycle
Employer and occupation groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Engineer and 2010 — sum to $924,482. 1,065 itemized contributions and 305 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 Engineer hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. Engineer is a self-reported title, not a PE license file and not an NSPE membership roll. 305 donors and 1,065 lines in 2010 matched that word. SOFTWARE ENGINEER, CIVIL ENGINEER, PE, ENGINEERING, and named engineering firms sit in other keys. This page is the stored string ENGINEER.
LobbyVault keeps this two-key page so a reader can open Engineer 2010 without treating the industry hub as a cycle total or the 2010 cycle hub as an employer total. The overlay at the Engineer 2010 path holds the itemized rows for this cell. This prose publishes the packet snapshot: $924,482, 1,065 contributions, 305 donors, and 3.8% of $24,337,583.
3.8% of the Engineer roll
The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $24,337,583. The 2010 slice of $924,482 is about 3.8% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 96.2% ($23,413,101). Treating 2010 as the Engineer FEC story would ignore that remainder.
Treat $24,337,583 as the denominator for the 3.8% 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 $24,337,583.
A 3.8% cell can sit next to larger or smaller even-year windows on the same Engineer hub. This packet does not publish those other cycle dollars, so they are not cited here. Open Engineer to drop the year filter. Open the 2010 election cycle to drop the employer filter.

Questions
- How much did Engineer donors give in 2010?
- FEC.gov aggregates show $924,482 in itemized individual contributions for the Engineer grouping in the 2010 cycle, across 1,065 contributions and 305 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $24,337,583 all-cycle figure.
- What share of Engineer FEC money is 2010?
- The grouping’s all-cycle total is $24,337,583. The 2010 cell of $924,482 is about 3.8% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 96.2% ($23,413,101) on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the Engineer 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 Engineer donors?
- No. The bucket is the self-reported string ENGINEER. 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 $924,482 from 305 donors.
- Where is the overlay for the Engineer 2010 join?
- Open Engineer 2010 for the cycle overlay, Engineer 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.
