The US Senate × 2014 cell holds $277,224. That figure comes from FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates: 378 contributions, 72 donors, keyed to the stored string US SENATE. Lifetime for the grouping is $4,513,115, so 2014 is about 6.1% of the roll. Not senate pac disbursements, not official senate operating funds, and not the united states senate spelling.
Key figures
- US Senate × 2014 is $277,224 in itemized individual contributions.
- The cell includes 378 contributions from 72 donors.
- 2014 is about 6.1% of the grouping’s $4,513,115 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.
The US Senate × 2014 join
LobbyVault stores employer and occupation text as grouped strings and election cycles as two-year tags. Where US Senate meets 2014, the itemized individual total is $277,224. That is 378 contributions from 72 donors. The figure is not a corporate treasury transfer and does not identify who received the money. Cite FEC.gov.
The us senate hub nor the 2014 election cycle hub restates a one-key total. This tie keeps both keys. US Senate is chamber employer text as stored. UNITED STATES SENATE, U.S. SENATE, and U S SENATE are other keys. Rows that used those other strings are not added into $277,224.
A share of 6.1% versus $4,513,115 is a scale check, not a ranking of cycles and not evidence of a coordinated program. The remaining 93.9% ($4,235,891) lives on other even-year pages for the same string. 2014 is a midterm even-year window; that fact describes the FEC calendar, not which contests received the money.
Scale: $277,224 versus $4,513,115
The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $4,513,115. The 2014 slice of $277,224 is about 6.1% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 93.9% ($4,235,891). Treating 2014 as the entire US Senate FEC story would ignore that remainder. The industry hub is the year index for this string.
Treat $4,513,115 as the denominator for the 6.1% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. This tie keeps 2014 from being folded silently into $4,513,115. Neighboring spellings are not added into either figure.
