INSURANCE

Insurance as stored text, 2012 as cycle

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Insurance and 2012 — sum to $777,884. 716 itemized contributions and 221 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 Insurance hub nor the 2012 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. Insurance as a one-word occupation or employer grouping collected 716 lines from 221 donors in 2012. The word can mean a carrier, an agency, or a job. Named companies typed as employer sit on firm pages. Insurance Agent is a longer string with its own 2012 cell and is not added here. INSURANCE AGENT, INSURANCE BROKER, INSURANCE EXECUTIVE, and named carriers such as STATE FARM are other keys. This page is the one-word Insurance string.

6.5% of the Insurance roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $11,967,484 ($12.0 million). The 2012 slice of $777,884 is about 6.5% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 93.5%. Treating 2012 as the Insurance FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $11,967,484 as the denominator for the 6.5% 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 $11,967,484.

Questions

How much did Insurance donors give in 2012?

FEC.gov aggregates show $777,884 in itemized individual contributions for the Insurance grouping in the 2012 cycle, across 716 contributions and 221 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $11,967,484 all-cycle figure.

What share of Insurance FEC money is 2012?

The grouping’s all-cycle total is $11,967,484. The 2012 cell of $777,884 is about 6.5% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 93.5% on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the Insurance hub holds other cycles; the 2012 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.

Does this include only licensed or currently employed Insurance donors?

No. The bucket is the self-reported string Insurance. The FEC does not verify licenses or current jobs. Related phrases may sit in other groupings. This join reports the string match for 2012 only, totaling $777,884 from 221 donors.

Where is the overlay for the Insurance 2012 join?

Open Insurance 2012 for the cycle overlay, Insurance 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.
