Lifetime storage for the same exact string is $5,309,080; 2014 is about 6.3% of that figure. The join is self-reported occupation or industry word, not a PR-firm PAC, a communications NAICS rollup, or named agencies stored as employer keys.

Key figures

  • Join total: $337,071 for Public Relations in the 2014 cycle.
  • Volume: 202 itemized contributions, 61 donors (about 3.3 lines per donor).
  • 6.3% of the $5,309,080 lifetime grouping is this window.
  • Exact string PUBLIC RELATIONS; neighboring spellings are other keys.
  • Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates.

The Public Relations Γ— 2014 join

LobbyVault stores FEC employer/industry strings separately from election cycles. Crossing them for Public Relations and 2014 yields $337,071. That is 202 itemized lines and 61 unique donors. The figure is not a committee’s reported disbursement. FEC.gov remains the underlying source.

Self-reported occupation or industry word can collide with similar form text. This join uses the exact grouping PUBLIC RELATIONS. PUBLIC RELATIONS is a two-word title string. People who stored a firm name as employer sit in other buckets. Neighboring stored labels include PR, PUBLICIST, COMMUNICATIONS, MARKETING, and named PR agencies. LobbyVault does not merge those strings into $337,071. The 61 donor identities are contributor keys, not a headcount of a workforce.

Dropping either filter changes the story. Drop the year and you see $5,309,080. Drop the string and you see the entire 2014 cycle. This page holds both filters at once.

Lifetime Public Relations money versus 2014

A lifetime figure of $5,309,080 can swallow a single cycle if the join is skipped. 2014 is $337,071, about 6.3%. The leftover $4,972,009 belongs on other cycle pages for the same string, not in this cell.

$5,309,080 is still only this exact grouping. It is not every related company name and not a sector total. 6.3% describes 2014 inside Public Relations, nothing else. $5,309,080 is the running sum for exact string PUBLIC RELATIONS. 2014 contributes $337,071 (6.3%); the complement is $4,972,009 (93.7%). Changing one character in the employer field would move money to another grouping and change both the numerator and the denominator.
