Key figures
- State of California × 2010 is $349,373 in itemized individual contributions.
- The cell includes 385 contributions from 136 donors.
- 2010 is about 4.3% of the grouping’s $8,112,855 all-cycle total.
- The label is self-reported form text, not a California state-employee census, not a state-budget line, and not a California PAC.
- FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.
State of California crossed with 2010
Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — State of California and 2010 — sum to $349,373. 385 itemized contributions and 136 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. This page joins the employer grouping State of California to cycle 2010; it is not a restatement of either hub alone.
Neither the State of California hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. 136 unique donors and 385 lines in 2010 sit under the stored string STATE OF CALIFORNIA. CALIFORNIA, STATE OF CA, CALIFORNIA STATE, and CA STATE GOVERNMENT stay on their own keys if filers used them. Federal-to-state grants or other California USAspending rows are a different file and are not funded by these itemized gifts. Campaign contributions are not federal awards.
4.3% of the State of California roll
The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $8,112,855 ($8.1 million). The 2010 slice of $349,373 is about 4.3% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 95.7%, or $7,763,482. Treating 2010 as the State of California FEC story would ignore that remainder. Quote $349,373 when the sentence is about 2010. Quote $8,112,855 when the sentence is about the grouping across cycles. Do not add those two dollar figures; the first is already inside the second.
Treat $8,112,855 as the denominator for the 4.3% 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 $8,112,855. 4.3% is $349,373 divided by $8,112,855. Rounding to $349,373 and $8.1 million does not create extra facts. Use exact integers in a table. Use the rounded forms only as headlines of those same integers.
