NORFOLK SOUTHERN CORPORATION

Norfolk Southern Corporation crossed with 2010

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Norfolk Southern Corporation and 2010 — sum to $382,232. 1,417 itemized contributions and 65 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 employer grouping Norfolk Southern Corporation to cycle 2010; it is not a restatement of either hub alone.

Neither the Norfolk Southern Corporation hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. 65 unique donors and 1,417 lines in 2010 sit under the stored string NORFOLK SOUTHERN CORPORATION. NORFOLK SOUTHERN, NS, NORFOLK SOUTHERN RAILWAY, and NORFOLK & WESTERN stay on their own keys if filers used them. FRA, Amtrak, or other rail USAspending rows are a different file and are not funded by these itemized gifts. Campaign contributions are not federal awards.

6.8% of the Norfolk Southern Corporation roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $5,647,909 ($5.6 million). The 2010 slice of $382,232 is about 6.8% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 93.2%, or $5,265,677. Treating 2010 as the Norfolk Southern Corporation FEC story would ignore that remainder. Quote $382,232 when the sentence is about 2010. Quote $5,647,909 when the sentence is about the grouping across cycles. Do not add those two dollar figures; the first is already inside the second.

Treat $5,647,909 as the denominator for the 6.8% 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 $5,647,909. 6.8% is $382,232 divided by $5,647,909. Rounding to $382,232 and $5.6 million does not create extra facts. Use exact integers in a table. Use the rounded forms only as headlines of those same integers.
