About 7.5% of the Verizon lifetime FEC bucket landed in 2014: $301,281 of $4,014,059. The cycle cell counts 248 contributions and 97 donors on FEC.gov. Read the number as a two-key filter (VERIZON and 2014), not as a Verizon PAC, VERIZON WIRELESS as a sibling, or a telecom NAICS rollup.
Key figures
- FEC.gov: $301,281 for Verizon donors in 2014.
- 248 contributions from 97 donors; about $3,106 per donor.
- 2014 holds 7.5% of $4,014,059; other cycles hold $3,712,778.
- Self-reported string VERIZON is the only employer key used.
- Correlation of name and year is not a federal-spending trail.
2014 filtered to Verizon
Apply the Verizon filter to the 2014 election cycle and the remaining money is $301,281. FEC.gov itemized that amount across 248 contributions and 97 donors. The overlay at the cycle path lists the rows; this file explains the relationship.
Verizon is telecommunications employer text. It is not NAICS. It is not a donor biography. 97 unique donors matched the stored string in 2014. Wireless and Communications suffixes are other keys. This cell is the stored employer VERIZON, not a product-line rollup. Neighboring stored labels include VERIZON WIRELESS, VERIZON COMMUNICATIONS, VZ, and VERIZON FIOS. LobbyVault does not merge those strings into $301,281. Repeat gifts can raise 248 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 2014 would overstate this cell. Citing the 2014 hub as if it were Verizon-only would overstate the year.
7.5% in 2014, 92.5% elsewhere
7.5% of stored Verizon money is tagged 2014 ($301,281). 92.5% is not ($3,712,778). 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 2014 so $4,014,059 is not mistaken for a two-year number. Lifetime Verizon storage is $4,014,059. Subtract the 2014 cell and $3,712,778 remains. That remainder is 92.5% of the grouping. 7.5% is the 2014 share. Both percentages use packet facts only.

Questions
- How much did Verizon donors give in 2014?
- FEC.gov aggregates show $301,281 in itemized individual contributions for the Verizon grouping in the 2014 cycle, across 248 contributions and 97 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $4,014,059 all-cycle figure. Independent expenditures are not included.
- What share of Verizon FEC money is 2014?
- The grouping’s all-cycle total is $4,014,059. The 2014 cell of $301,281 is about 7.5% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 92.5% ($3,712,778) on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell.
- Does this include only Verizon employees?
- No. The bucket is the self-reported string VERIZON. The FEC does not verify licenses, current jobs, or corporate identity. Related phrases may sit in other groupings. This join reports the string match for 2014 only, totaling $301,281 from 97 donors across 248 contributions.
- Where is the overlay for the Verizon 2014 join?
- Open Verizon 2014 for the cycle overlay, Verizon for the grouping hub, and the 2014 election cycle for the year without this employer filter. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. This JSON file names the join; the overlay holds the itemized rows.
