Key figures
- Freelance in 2012: $246,160 on 290 receipts from 117 harvested donors.
- Freelance all-cycle grouping in this extract: $5,174,808.

- Employer labels are filer-entered. Cycle dollars are not federal awards.
Freelance as stored title, 2012 as the cycle
The parent grouping indexes $5,174,808 ($5.17 million rounded). 2012’s $246,160 is 4.8% of that parent. Other even-year cuts exist on other cycle hubs. This packet publishes one cycle integer for this page: $246,160. Do not invent a 2010 or 2014 total from these facts. The leftover $4,928,648 sits in other harvested years under the same Freelance key.
This page exists because two FEC dimensions meet: employer/industry grouping Freelance and even-year election cycle 2012. $246,160 is the intersection. $5,174,808 is the grouping’s harvested all-cycle total before the year filter. 290 is the 2012 line count. The 2012 donor count is 117 (117 harvested donors). LobbyVault does not convert those integers into a motive, a lobbying total, or a USAspending award.
117 donors on 290 itemized receipts
In 2012, receipts tagged FREELANCE sum to $246,160 on 290 itemized lines from 117 harvested donors. About $849 per receipt is $246,160 divided by 290. About $2,104 per harvested donor is $246,160 divided by 117. Lines per donor average about 2.5. FEC even-year cycles run through December 31 of the even year; 2012 names that two-year window, not a single November night.
