Hyatt Corporation crossed with 2008
Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Hyatt Corporation and 2008 — sum to $202,468. 46 itemized contributions and 5 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. HYATT CORPORATION is grouped employer text, including CORPORATION as stored. The 2008 filter keeps receipts in that cycle whose employer field collapsed to this key. Five donors on 46 lines is a concentrated cell, not a property-level census.
Neither the Hyatt Corporation hub nor the 2008 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. The Hyatt Corporation hub is the year index for this string. HYATT, HYATT HOTELS, and HOTELIER occupation titles stay on their own keys if filers used them. Federal hospitality awards on USAspending are a different file and are not funded by these itemized gifts.
4.5% of the Hyatt Corporation roll
The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $4.5 million ($4,508,886). The 2008 slice of $202,468 is about 4.5% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 95.5%. Treating 2008 as the Hyatt Corporation FEC story would ignore that remainder.
Treat $4,508,886 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 2008 from being folded silently into $4,508,886.
