CEO

Scale of the CEO string

$336,009,831 is the occupation-level dollar total. 378,272 is the itemization count. 35,118 is the donor-record count. Mean contribution size is about $888. Mean dollars per donor record is about $9,568. Both sit toward the high side among common occupation labels in this extract.

The repeat rate is about 11 itemizations per donor record. That is close to several other senior-title strings and far below occupations that generate thirty or more lines per person. Frequency and dollar size are different dimensions; this bucket is heavier on dollars per line than on raw line count.

These means are not typical-check estimates. A small number of large itemizations can lift the average while most lines remain smaller. The packet does not include a distribution.

Punctuation splits the public record

C.E.O. is a different occupation page with its own facts. Donors and software that insert periods create a parallel bucket. Combining CEO and C.E.O. without showing both source totals would mix keys the FEC file kept apart. This guide cites only the CEO facts: $336,009,831, 378,272 contributions, and 35,118 donors.

Chief executive officer, founder, and president are also separate strings when that is what the donor wrote. Best-efforts rules do not force a controlled vocabulary. LobbyVault indexes the text that arrived in the bulk download.

Questions

How much have CEO-occupation donors given in FEC data?

The CEO occupation string is attached to $336,009,831 in LobbyVault’s FEC bulk index, across 378,272 contributions and 35,118 donor records. The figure is itemized occupation money, not a census of all chief executives. Occupation is self-reported free text on FEC Form 3 and Form 3X schedules. Unitemized receipts never enter this occupation total. The live hub may apply cycle filters; this packet is the harvested occupation key.

Is C.E.O. included in the CEO total?

No. C.E.O. is a separate occupation string with its own dollar, contribution, and donor facts. This page covers the CEO key only: $336,009,831, 378,272 contributions, and 35,118 donors. Occupation is self-reported free text on FEC Form 3 and Form 3X schedules. Unitemized receipts never enter this occupation total. The live hub may apply cycle filters; this packet is the harvested occupation key.

What is the average CEO contribution in this file?

Dividing $336,009,831 by 378,272 itemizations yields about $888 per contribution. Dividing by 35,118 donors yields about $9,568 per donor record. Both are means, not medians. Occupation is self-reported free text on FEC Form 3 and Form 3X schedules. Unitemized receipts never enter this occupation total. The live hub may apply cycle filters; this packet is the harvested occupation key.

Does listing CEO imply the donor ran a public company?

No. Occupation is self-reported free text. Private-company chiefs, nonprofit heads, and people using CEO loosely can all appear. The FEC record does not verify corporate form. The matching contribution count is 378,272 and the matching donor-record count is 35,118. Those three numbers are occupation-string totals from FEC Form 3/3X itemizations indexed on LobbyVault, not a licensed roster and not a party split.
