Donors listing MD reported $379,058 in itemized individual contributions during the 2010 federal election cycle, according to FEC.gov aggregates. Those dollars arrived in 494 contributions from 227 donors. The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $20,116,027; the 2010 slice is about 1.9% of that running sum. MD is grouped occupation text as stored on FEC individual receipts β€” not an AMA physician census, not a hospital payroll, and not a medical PAC.

Key figures

  • MD Γ— 2010 is $379,058 in itemized individual contributions.
  • The cell includes 494 contributions from 227 donors.
  • 2010 is about 1.9% of the grouping’s $20,116,027 all-cycle total.
  • The label is self-reported form text, not an AMA physician census, not a hospital payroll, and not a medical PAC.
  • FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.

MD crossed with 2010

Occupation groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both β€” MD and 2010 β€” sum to $379,058. 494 itemized contributions and 227 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. This page joins the occupation grouping MD to cycle 2010; it is not a restatement of either hub alone.

Neither the MD hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. 227 unique donors and 494 lines in 2010 sit under the stored string MD. PHYSICIAN, DOCTOR, M.D., and MEDICAL DOCTOR stay on their own keys if filers used them. Medicare, VA, or other health USAspending rows are a different file and are not funded by these itemized gifts. Campaign contributions are not federal awards.

1.9% of the MD roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $20,116,027 ($20.1 million). The 2010 slice of $379,058 is about 1.9% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 98.1%, or $19,736,969. Treating 2010 as the MD FEC story would ignore that remainder. Quote $379,058 when the sentence is about 2010. Quote $20,116,027 when the sentence is about the grouping across cycles. Do not add those two dollar figures; the first is already inside the second.

Treat $20,116,027 as the denominator for the 1.9% 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 $20,116,027. 1.9% is $379,058 divided by $20,116,027. Rounding to $379,058 and $20.1 million does not create extra facts. Use exact integers in a table. Use the rounded forms only as headlines of those same integers.

Questions

How much did MD donors give in 2010?
FEC.gov aggregates show $379,058 in itemized individual contributions for the MD grouping in the 2010 cycle, across 494 contributions and 227 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $20,116,027 all-cycle figure. Cite FEC.gov for the MD Γ— 2010 join.
What share of MD FEC money is 2010?
The grouping’s all-cycle total is $20,116,027. The 2010 cell of $379,058 is about 1.9% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 98.1% ($19,736,969) on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the MD hub holds other cycles.
Is this MD’s PAC or an official account?
No. $379,058 is itemized individual receipts whose employer or occupation text grouped to MD. Committee PAC filings and official organization accounts sit outside this rollup. The key is not an AMA physician census, not a hospital payroll, and not a medical PAC. Filings remain on FEC.gov.
Where is the overlay for the MD 2010 join?
Open Md 2010 for the cycle overlay, Md for the grouping hub, and the 2010 election cycle for the year without this filter. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. This JSON file names the join; the overlay holds the itemized rows.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by employer/industry grouping and election cycle.
