499 itemized gifts totaling $474,397 sit at the meeting of Owner and the 2008 cycle. 203 unique donors produced the cell. FEC.gov is the source. The grouping’s all-cycle total is $8,415,493, so this window is about 5.6% — self-reported title in a two-year tag, not a small-business PAC, a verified ownership census, or related titles such as business owner stored as other keys.
Key figures
- $474,397 is the Owner × 2008 overlap.
- 203 unique donors; 499 itemized contributions; mean gift about $951.
- Lifetime grouping $8,415,493; 2008 share about 5.6%.
- The page is self-reported title, not a small-business PAC.
- Unitemized gifts, PACs, and federal awards sit outside this cell.
Two keys: OWNER and 2008
The packet’s keys are literal: industry string OWNER, cycle 2008. Their product on FEC.gov individual-contribution aggregates is $474,397, from 499 contributions and 203 donors. No recipient list, party split, or PAC total is published here.
Treat the label as self-reported title. Self-reported employer and occupation fields are free text. Filers who wrote a longer firm name, a parent company, or a nearby title are counted elsewhere. This page does not merge those buckets.
$474,397 is smaller than $8,415,493 because other cycles exist, and it is not a share of national 2008 giving because this packet has no cycle-wide denominator. The join is the point.
Where $7,941,096 still sits
After this 2008 cell of $474,397, $7,941,096 of the Owner grouping remains in other even-year windows. That remainder is 94.4% of $8,415,493. The 2008 page is not empty of other employers; this file simply does not add them.
Percentages here use packet facts only. No national 2008 total is supplied, so no “share of the election” claim is possible. 5.6% is Owner-internal. Because 2008 is about 5.6% of $8,415,493, most stored Owner money sits outside this window ($7,941,096). The industry hub is the index for those other cycles. This page isolates 2008 so the lifetime figure is not mistaken for a two-year number.
