STOCKBROKER

Two keys: Stockbroker and 2008

The relationship is mechanical: stored occupation text STOCKBROKER plus cycle year 2008. FEC.gov individual-contribution aggregates put $262,016 at that intersection, from 206 itemized gifts and 58 unique donors. No recipient names appear in this packet. Independent expenditures sit outside the cell.

Stockbroker is self-reported occupation title, not a brokerage PAC, not a FINRA roster, and not a securities NAICS total. STOCK BROKER, BROKER, FINANCIAL ADVISOR, and named firm employers are other keys. The FEC does not verify that the string matches a legal employer, a license, or a current job.

Readers who want the year without Stockbroker use 2008 election cycle. Readers who want Stockbroker without 2008 use Stockbroker. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. 2008 is a presidential even-year window on FEC.gov; that calendar label does not explain the dollar cell.

Where 2008 sits on the Stockbroker hub

6.8% is $262,016 divided by $3,860,967. That arithmetic uses only packet facts. The leftover 93.2% equals $3,598,951 and lives on other cycle pages for Stockbroker. A mid-single-digit share (or any other share this packet happens to show) is not a peak-year claim.

$3,860,967 is a sum of itemized individual receipts grouped to STOCKBROKER across cycles in this table. It is not assets, payroll, or a federal award total. Sharing a calendar year with USAspending records does not turn these gifts into contracts or grants. Keep the 6.8% attached to Stockbroker and 2008 together.
