$2,405,666 in itemized individual contributions is the 2010-cycle join for the occupation grouping Real Estate. FEC.gov aggregates count 2,429 contributions from 690 donors. The same string totals $66,412,750 across every cycle in this table, so the cell is about 3.6% of the lifetime bucket β€” a self-reported title meeting a two-year window, not a REALTORS PAC and not a real-estate NAICS total.

Key figures

  • Real Estate Γ— 2010 is $2,405,666 in itemized individual contributions.
  • The cell includes 2,429 contributions from 690 donors.
  • 2010 is about 3.6% of the grouping’s $66,412,750 all-cycle total.
  • The label is filer-entered form text, not a REALTORS PAC and not a real-estate NAICS total.
  • FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.

Real Estate as stored text, 2010 as cycle

Employer and occupation groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both β€” Real Estate and 2010 β€” sum to $2,405,666. 2,429 itemized contributions and 690 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.

Neither the Real Estate hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. Real Estate is a self-reported grouping, not a NAR membership file and not a property-sales series. 690 donors and 2,429 lines in 2010 matched that word. REALTOR, REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER, REAL ESTATE BROKER, and named brokerages sit in other keys. This page is the stored string REAL ESTATE.

LobbyVault keeps this two-key page so a reader can open Real Estate 2010 without treating the industry hub as a cycle total or the 2010 cycle hub as an employer total. The overlay at the Real Estate 2010 path holds the itemized rows for this cell. This prose publishes the packet snapshot: $2,405,666, 2,429 contributions, 690 donors, and 3.6% of $66,412,750.

3.6% of the Real Estate roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $66,412,750. The 2010 slice of $2,405,666 is about 3.6% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 96.4% ($64,007,084). Treating 2010 as the Real Estate FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $66,412,750 as the denominator for the 3.6% 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 $66,412,750.

A 3.6% cell can sit next to larger or smaller even-year windows on the same Real Estate hub. This packet does not publish those other cycle dollars, so they are not cited here. Open Real Estate to drop the year filter. Open the 2010 election cycle to drop the employer filter.

Questions

How much did Real Estate donors give in 2010?
FEC.gov aggregates show $2,405,666 in itemized individual contributions for the Real Estate grouping in the 2010 cycle, across 2,429 contributions and 690 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $66,412,750 all-cycle figure.
What share of Real Estate FEC money is 2010?
The grouping’s all-cycle total is $66,412,750. The 2010 cell of $2,405,666 is about 3.6% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 96.4% ($64,007,084) on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the Real Estate hub holds other cycles; the 2010 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.
Does this include only licensed or currently employed Real Estate donors?
No. The bucket is the self-reported string REAL ESTATE. The FEC does not verify licenses or current jobs. Related phrases may sit in other groupings. This join reports the string match for 2010 only, totaling $2,405,666 from 690 donors.
Where is the overlay for the Real Estate 2010 join?
Open Real Estate 2010 for the cycle overlay, Real Estate for the grouping hub, and the 2010 election cycle for the year without this employer 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.
