Those dollars arrived in 363 contributions from 97 donors. The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $4,325,023; the 2010 slice is about 7.1% of that running sum. The key is not an LDA registrant census and not a lobbying-firm PAC.

Key figures

  • Lobbyist × 2010 is $307,096 in itemized individual contributions.
  • The cell includes 363 contributions from 97 donors.
  • 2010 is about 7.1% of the grouping’s $4,325,023 all-cycle total.
  • The label is self-reported form text, not an LDA registrant census and not a lobbying-firm PAC.
  • FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.

Lobbyist crossed with 2010

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Lobbyist and 2010 — sum to $307,096. 363 itemized contributions and 97 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. LOBBYIST is an occupation-style grouping, not a Lobbying Disclosure Act total. The 2010 filter keeps receipts whose grouped field matches this string in that cycle. It does not list clients, bills, or LDA filings.

Neither the Lobbyist hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. The Lobbyist hub is the year index for this string. GOVERNMENT RELATIONS, GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS, and firm legal names stay on their own keys if stored separately. Federal awards on USAspending are a different file and are not funded by these itemized gifts.

7.1% of the Lobbyist roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $4.3 million ($4,325,023). The 2010 slice of $307,096 is about 7.1% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 92.9%. Treating 2010 as the Lobbyist FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $4,325,023 as the denominator for the 7.1% 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 $4,325,023.

Questions

How much did Lobbyist donors give in 2010?
FEC.gov aggregates show $307,096 in itemized individual contributions for the Lobbyist grouping in the 2010 cycle, across 363 contributions and 97 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $4,325,023 all-cycle figure. Filings remain on FEC.gov. Quote packet facts only.
What share of Lobbyist FEC money is 2010?
The grouping’s all-cycle total is $4,325,023. The 2010 cell of $307,096 is about 7.1% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 92.9% on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the Lobbyist hub holds other cycles; the 2010 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.
Is this Lobbyist’s PAC or an official account?
No. $307,096 is itemized individual receipts whose employer or occupation text grouped to Lobbyist. Committee PAC filings and official organization accounts sit outside this rollup unless an individual receipt itself carries the string. The key is not an LDA registrant census and not a lobbying-firm PAC.
Where is the overlay for the Lobbyist 2010 join?
Open Lobbyist 2010 for the cycle overlay, Lobbyist 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. Original filings remain on FEC.gov.
