Key figures
- General Atomics × 2010 is $214,870 in itemized individual contributions.
- The cell includes 171 contributions from 61 donors.
- 2010 is about 3.5% of the grouping’s $6,115,776 all-cycle total.
- The label is filer-entered form text (GENERAL ATOMICS), not a PAC disbursement and not a NAICS total.
- FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.
Headline cell $214,870
Employer and occupation groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — General Atomics (GENERAL ATOMICS) and 2010 — sum to $214,870. 171 itemized contributions and 61 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 General Atomics hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. GENERAL ATOMICS is the stored employer string. GA, GENERAL ATOMIC, and GENERAL ATOMICS AERONAUTICAL are other keys. Sixty-one unique donors produced 171 lines. FEC individual receipts are not USAspending contract obligations. Do not read this cell as defense awards. LobbyVault does not merge neighboring spellings into $214,870. This URL exists because the two dimensions meet.
96.5% of General Atomics dollars sit outside 2010
The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $6,115,776 ($6.1 million). The 2010 slice of $214,870 is about 3.5% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 96.5% ($5,900,906). Treating 2010 as the General Atomics FEC story would ignore that remainder.
Treat $6,115,776 as the denominator for the 3.5% 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 $6,115,776.

Questions
- How much itemized money sits at GENERAL ATOMICS in 2010?
- FEC.gov aggregates show $214,870 in itemized individual contributions for the General Atomics grouping in the 2010 cycle, across 171 contributions and 61 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $6,115,776 all-cycle figure. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.
- How much of the $6.1 million General Atomics book is 2010?
- The grouping’s all-cycle total is $6,115,776. The 2010 cell of $214,870 is about 3.5% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 96.5% ($5,900,906) on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the General Atomics hub holds other cycles; the 2010 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.
- Are these General Atomics PAC transfers in 2010?
- No. $214,870 is itemized individual contributions whose employer or occupation field grouped to General Atomics (GENERAL ATOMICS) in the 2010 cycle. It is not committee disbursements, not independent expenditures, and not a verified employee census. 171 contributions came from 61 donors. Do not invent those names from the grouping label.
- Which hub drops the 2010 filter?
- Open General Atomics 2010 for the cycle overlay, General Atomics 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. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov controls.
