Contributions

101

Unique Donors

54

The The Blackstone Group grouping and the 2012 cycle intersect at $525,001 in itemized individual contributions on FEC.gov. 121 receipts from 60 donors built that cell. The lifetime string THE BLACKSTONE GROUP is $4,480,166, which puts 2012 near 11.7% of the stored book. This is a two-dimension join, not a restatement of either hub, and not a Blackstone PAC, a fund AUM figure, or a finance NAICS total.

Key figures

  • The Blackstone Group and 2012 meet at $525,001.
  • 121 itemized contributions and 60 donors produced the cell.
  • 2012 is 11.7% of the $4,480,166 stored grouping.
  • Neighboring labels such as BLACKSTONE are other keys.
  • FEC Schedule A is not USAspending.

Reading the The Blackstone Group Γ— 2012 cell

Lead with the number: $525,001. Then name both keys: THE BLACKSTONE GROUP and 2012. Then name the source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates. 121 contributions and 60 donors are the volume fields that accompany the dollars. None of those fields names a recipient committee on this page. The join is itemized individual Schedule A activity only.

THE BLACKSTONE GROUP is the stored employer. BLACKSTONE without the article is a different key if filers typed it that way. The overlay path The Blackstone Group 2012 is where rows can be inspected. The industry page The Blackstone Group drops the year. The cycle page 2012 election cycle drops the employer string. All FEC ties indexes other joins.

Independent expenditures, PAC-to-PAC transfers, and unitemized gifts are outside $525,001. Mixing those tables with this cell would invent a total the packet does not publish.

The Blackstone Group on the employer/occupation axis

The Blackstone Group is employer string as stored. Filers typed THE BLACKSTONE GROUP (or a string that grouped to it). BLACKSTONE, BLACKSTONE GROUP, BX, and named Blackstone affiliates remain other keys. Exact-match grouping is why a short label can look smaller than a reader’s mental sector. $525,001 counts only this key inside 2012. Named people are not invented here; the packet’s identity field is 60 donors.

The all-cycle figure $4,480,166 uses the same string with the year filter off. $3,955,165 sits in other cycles (88.3%). That remainder is not missing money; it is money tagged to other even-year windows on the The Blackstone Group hub.

Questions

What is the The Blackstone Group total for the 2012 cycle?
$525,001 in itemized individual contributions, on 121 receipts from 60 donors, for the stored string THE BLACKSTONE GROUP. Source: FEC.gov. The all-cycle grouping is $4,480,166, which already includes this cell. The join is not a PAC total.
Why is 2012 only 11.7% of The Blackstone Group money?
Because $4,480,166 spans every cycle in the table. $525,001 is the 2012 slice (11.7%). Other even-year windows hold $3,955,165. A smaller share is a calendar fact, not a ranking of The Blackstone Group and not a judgment about the grouping.
Are the 60 donors named on this page?
No. The packet publishes a donor count, not names. 60 is an identity total for THE BLACKSTONE GROUP in 2012. Repeat gifts help explain 121 contributions versus 60 identities. The overlay holds itemized rows; this file does not invent a roster. Cite FEC.gov. THE BLACKSTONE GROUP in 2012 is $525,001 on 121 itemized receipts from 60 donors; the all-cycle grouping is $4,480,166.
Is The Blackstone Group 2012 money the same as federal spending?
No. These are FEC individual contributions. USAspending awards are a different dataset and a different form. The packet has no obligation amount. Do not treat $525,001 as grants, contracts, or assistance tied to The Blackstone Group. Cite FEC.gov. THE BLACKSTONE GROUP in 2012 is $525,001 on 121 itemized receipts from 60 donors; the all-cycle grouping is $4,480,166.
