FEC.gov records $478,436 for the string FORD MOTOR COMPANY inside the 2008 election cycle. That cell is 1,088 itemized contributions and 160 unique donors. Across all cycles the grouping stores $5,741,013, which means 2008 is about 8.3% of the running sum. This page is a join: Ford Motor Company on one axis, 2008 on the other — not Ford Motor Company PAC, a vehicle-manufacturing NAICS bucket, or Ford as a corporate treasury.
Key figures
- FORD MOTOR COMPANY in 2008 totals $478,436 on FEC.gov itemized individual receipts.
- 1,088 contributions and 160 unique donors produced the cell.

- Do not treat campaign gifts as USAspending awards.
Why Ford Motor Company and 2008 share a page
Ford Motor Company pages without a year mix every even-year window. 2008 pages without this string mix every employer and occupation. The reason this file exists is the overlap: $478,436 from FEC.gov itemized individual receipts tagged FORD MOTOR COMPANY in 2008. 1,088 contributions and 160 donors are the volume counts. Recipients are not in this packet.
The stored employer label is automaker employer text. The Commission does not certify that each filer worked there, held that title, or used a legal entity name. Neighboring spellings remain other keys. Ford motor company pac, a vehicle-manufacturing naics bucket, or ford as a corporate treasury would be a different dataset or a different string.
Keep $5,741,013 on the industry hub and keep the 2008 cycle hub for the year without this filter. The overlap — and only the overlap — is $478,436.
2008 as a slice of $5,741,013
$5,741,013 is the all-cycle total stored for FORD MOTOR COMPANY. Subtract $478,436 and $5,262,577 remains in other cycles (91.7%). 2008 therefore accounts for about 8.3% of the grouping. That percentage is arithmetic on two packet facts, not a ranking against other employers.
Do not read 8.3% as intensity, influence, or a planned 2008 campaign. It is $478,436 divided by $5,741,013. The industry hub is where the other windows live. The 8.3% ratio is $478,436 divided by $5,741,013. Other even-year joins for FORD MOTOR COMPANY are not listed in this packet; they collectively hold $5,262,577. Citing 2008 as if it were the Ford Motor Company lifetime total would overstate this cell by $5,262,577.
