About 8.6% of the Verizon lifetime FEC bucket landed in 2012: $346,080 of $4,014,059. The cycle cell counts 380 contributions and 170 donors on FEC.gov. Read the number as a two-key filter (VERIZON and 2012), not as a Verizon PAC, a wired-telecom NAICS rollup, or Verizon Communications as a sibling string.
Key figures
- FEC.gov: $346,080 for Verizon donors in 2012.
- 380 contributions from 170 donors; about $2,036 per donor.
- 2012 holds 8.6% of $4,014,059; other cycles hold $3,667,979.
- Self-reported string VERIZON is the only employer key used.
- Correlation of name and year is not a federal-spending trail.
2012 filtered to Verizon
Apply the Verizon filter to the 2012 election cycle and the remaining money is $346,080. FEC.gov itemized that amount across 380 contributions and 170 donors. The overlay at the cycle path lists the rows; this file explains the relationship.
Verizon is telecom employer text. It is not NAICS. It is not a donor biography. 170 unique donors matched the stored string in 2012. Repeat gifts can raise 380 contributions without raising the donor count at the same pace.
The all-cycle Verizon total of $4,014,059 still includes other windows. Citing $4,014,059 as if it were 2012 would overstate this cell. Citing the 2012 hub as if it were Verizon-only would overstate the year.
8.6% in 2012, 91.4% elsewhere
8.6% of stored Verizon money is tagged 2012 ($346,080). 91.4% is not ($3,667,979). Both percentages use $4,014,059 as the base. Changing the string changes the base.
The industry hub holds the year-by-year index. This tie isolates 2012 so $4,014,059 is not mistaken for a two-year number. Lifetime Verizon storage is $4,014,059. Subtract the 2012 cell and $3,667,979 remains. That remainder is 91.4% of the grouping. 8.6% is the 2012 share. Both percentages use packet facts only.

- What share of Verizon FEC money is 2012?
- The grouping’s all-cycle total is $4,014,059. The 2012 cell of $346,080 is about 8.6% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 91.4% ($3,667,979) on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell.
- Does this include only Verizon employees?

- Where is the overlay for the Verizon 2012 join?
- Open Verizon 2012 for the cycle overlay, Verizon for the grouping hub, and the 2012 election cycle for the year without this employer filter. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages.
