Key figures
- General Electric Co × 2012 is $617,130 in itemized individual contributions.
- The cell includes 718 contributions from 166 donors.
- 2012 is about 4.5% of the grouping’s $13,679,946 all-cycle total.
- The label is self-reported form text, not a conglomerate NAICS total and not a GE PAC.
- FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.
General Electric Co crossed with 2012
Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — General Electric Co and 2012 — sum to $617,130. 718 itemized contributions and 166 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 Electric Co hub nor the 2012 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. One hundred sixty-six donors and 718 lines in 2012 sit under the same General Electric Co stored spelling as other even-year cells, but this page is the presidential-year join only. Adding the 2014 midterm cell would invent a total this packet does not publish as a join. Co is part of the stored suffix. GENERAL ELECTRIC, GE, GE COMPANY, and named GE subsidiaries are other keys. The 2014 General Electric Co cell is a different cycle page and is not added here.
4.5% of the General Electric Co roll
The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $13,679,946 ($13.7 million). The 2012 slice of $617,130 is about 4.5% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 95.5%. Treating 2012 as the General Electric Co FEC story would ignore that remainder.
Treat $13,679,946 as the denominator for the 4.5% 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 2012 from being folded silently into $13,679,946.

Questions
- How much did General Electric Co donors give in 2012?
- FEC.gov aggregates show $617,130 in itemized individual contributions for the General Electric Co grouping in the 2012 cycle, across 718 contributions and 166 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $13,679,946 all-cycle figure.
- What share of General Electric Co FEC money is 2012?
- The grouping’s all-cycle total is $13,679,946. The 2012 cell of $617,130 is about 4.5% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 95.5% on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the General Electric Co hub holds other cycles; the 2012 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.
- Is this General Electric Co’s PAC or an official account?
- No. $617,130 is itemized individual receipts whose employer or occupation text grouped to General Electric Co. Committee PAC filings and official organization accounts sit outside this rollup unless an individual receipt itself carries the string. The key is not a conglomerate NAICS total and not a GE PAC.
- Where is the overlay for the General Electric Co 2012 join?
- Open General Electric Co 2012 for the cycle overlay, General Electric Co for the grouping hub, and the 2012 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.
