$104,020 in itemized individual contributions is the 2008-cycle join for the employer grouping State Farm. FEC.gov aggregates count 155 contributions from 80 donors. The same string totals $3,826,299 across every cycle in this table, so the cell is about 2.7% of the lifetime bucket — insurance employer text meeting a two-year window, not State Farm PAC, State Farm Mutual as a corporate treasury, or every State Farm agent-office spelling stored separately.
Key figures
- State Farm × 2008 is $104,020 in itemized individual contributions.
- The cell includes 155 contributions from 80 donors.
- 2008 is about 2.7% of the grouping’s $3,826,299 all-cycle total.
- The label is self-reported form text (insurance employer text), not State Farm PAC.
- FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.
State Farm as stored text, 2008 as cycle
Employer and occupation groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — STATE FARM and 2008 — sum to $104,020. 155 itemized contributions and 80 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. Cite FEC.gov for this intersection.
Neither the State Farm hub nor the 2008 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. State Farm is insurance employer text, not a verified payroll file. 80 donors and 155 lines in 2008 matched that stored string. People who typed a neighboring spelling sit in other buckets. Named affiliates and related titles are other keys. This page is the exact string STATE FARM.
The join exists so a reader does not treat $3,826,299 (all cycles for this string) as the 2008 story, and does not treat the 2008 cycle hub as a State Farm-only list. Two filters, one cell: $104,020.
2.7% of the State Farm roll
The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $3,826,299. The 2008 slice of $104,020 is about 2.7% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 97.3% ($3,722,279). Treating 2008 as the entire State Farm FEC story would ignore that remainder. The industry hub is the year index for this string.
Treat $3,826,299 as the denominator for the 2.7% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. This tie keeps 2008 from being folded silently into $3,826,299. Neighboring spellings are not added into either figure.
