The FEC grouping Investments records $2,129,985 in itemized individual contributions for the 2014 cycle. One thousand three hundred twenty-three contributions from 341 donors make up that midterm cell. The grouping’s all-cycle total is $48,858,468, so 2014 is 4.4% of the string. This is the same Investments key as the 2012 join, cut to a congressional year, and still distinct from Investor and from named funds.

A thinner midterm on the same plural label

Three hundred forty-one donors and 1,323 lines average about 3.9 receipts per donorβ€”similar lines-per-person language to many occupation keys. Average line size is about $1,610. Average per donor is about $6,246. Those 2014 ratios are this packet’s facts. The 2012 Investments file used 497 donors and 1,946 lines; those counts are not facts on this page.

Both pages share the industry total $48,858,468. This page’s cycle cell is only $2,129,985.

The 2014 Investments cut is $2,129,985 on 1,323 lines from 341 donors, 4.4% of the shared $48,858,468 industry total. Three hundred forty-one keys and about $1,610 per line is an occupation-style midterm. The 2012 Investments join used 497 donors and 1,946 lines; those counts are not facts on this page. Investor is a different string. Named funds are other keys. This join is the word Investments locked to the congressional cycle.

4.4% of the Investments roll

Two million one hundred twenty-nine thousand nine hundred eighty-five dollars is 4.4% of $48,858,468. A midterm taking a smaller share than a presidential slice of the same key is consistent with FEC volume. This file still does not import 2012’s cycle dollars. The comparison that belongs here is 2014 versus the all-cycle roll.

The industry hub links years. This tie exists so the midterm is not treated as leftover after the 2012 overlay.
