UNITED STATES SENATE

2010 Election Cycle

Total Donated

$171,326

Contributions

110

Unique Donors

25

FEC.gov records $211,085 at the intersection of United States Senate and the 2010 election cycle. The Commission’s individual-contribution aggregates list 125 itemized gifts and 25 unique donors for that pair of keys. Across all cycles the stored string UNITED STATES SENATE sums to $8,119,516, which means this window is about 2.6% of the running total. The page is a join, not Senate PAC disbursements, not official Senate operating funds, and not the US SENATE spelling.

Key figures

  • United States Senate × 2010 is $211,085 in itemized individual contributions.
  • The cell includes 125 contributions from 25 donors.
  • 2010 is about 2.6% of the grouping’s $8,119,516 all-cycle total.
  • The label is self-reported form text (chamber employer text as stored), not a PAC.
  • FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.

Why United States Senate and 2010 share one cell

This page is the product of two keys, not a restatement of one hub. Filter individual receipts to UNITED STATES SENATE and to cycle 2010 and the Commission’s aggregates return $211,085. 125 contributions and 25 donors sit inside that cell. Recipients are not named here. PAC disbursements and independent expenditures are other tables. FEC.gov is the source.

Open United States Senate and the year filter comes off. Open 2010 election cycle and the employer filter comes off. Only the overlay United States Senate 2010 keeps both. United States Senate is chamber employer text as stored. US SENATE, U.S. SENATE, and U S SENATE are other keys. A neighboring spelling is a different join even if a searcher thinks the words are synonyms.

$8,119,516 is the lifetime total for this stored string. Folding 2010 into that figure, or stretching $211,085 across every cycle, mixes two different questions. The cell answers only the paired question. 2010 is a midterm even-year window; that fact describes the FEC calendar, not which contests received the money.

2010 as a slice of $8,119,516

2.6% is $211,085 divided by $8,119,516. That arithmetic uses only packet facts. The leftover 97.4% equals $7,908,431 and lives on other cycle pages for United States Senate. A mid-single-digit share (or any other share this packet happens to show) is not a peak-year claim.

$8,119,516 is a sum of itemized individual receipts grouped to UNITED STATES SENATE 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 2.6% attached to United States Senate and 2010 together.
