OIL PRODUCER and 2012 together

Schedule A lines that grouped to OIL PRODUCER inside cycle 2012 sum to $461,569 in this extract. That is the relationship this URL exists to explain. Oil Producer is not scored here as a winner or loser. Public records, not accusations. OIL PRODUCER is grouped occupation or employer text, not a NAICS oil-extraction code and not a named-operator roster. Eighty unique donors produced 342 itemized receipts in 2012, about 4.3 lines per donor. OIL AND GAS, INDEPENDENT OIL PRODUCER, and company names are other keys unless a receipt grouped here.

Mean gift size about $1,350 across 342 lines is a ratio, not a typical gift proven for every donor. Mean per donor about $5,770 is $461,569 divided by 80 unique IDs, not a household census.
