Actor political money in the 2014 election cycle

$560,383 in itemized individual contributions is the FEC.gov join between the occupation ACTOR and the 2014 election cycle. That cell covers 318 contributions from 143 donors. The occupation’s all-cycle total is $13,378,363, so 2014 is 4.2% of the labeled roll. This page is the occupation-and-cycle match, not an SAG-AFTRA roster, a casting file, or a studio payroll.

Key figures

  • Actor × 2014: $560,383.
  • 318 receipts from 143 donors.
  • 4.2% of the $13,378,363 ACTOR total.
  • Filer-entered occupation; committee filings are a different table.

Actor as occupation, 2014 as the cycle

Two FEC fields define the cell: occupation ACTOR and election cycle 2014. Matching rows sum to $560,383, 318 contributions, and 143 donors. ACTOR is the occupation string. Actress is a different key if that word appears. Stage versus film versus television is unpublished. The occupation hub is $13,378,363 across every cycle in the aggregate. The 2014 cycle hub mixes every other occupation that used that year. Neither hub restates this intersection; this tie page exists because the two dimensions meet.

2014’s dollar share is 4.2% ($560,383 of $13,378,363). The remainder, $12,817,980, sits in other cycles on the occupation hub. A donor-key count of 143 and a 4.2% year share mean 2014 is one slice of the labeled roll, not the whole occupation. Correlation between a job title and a two-year FEC window is a reporting overlap, not causation of an election outcome. Itemized individual receipts are the coverage. Unitemized money never appears in $560,383.

Open Actor donations for the $13,378,363 roll. Open the 2014 election cycle hub for every occupation in that window. All occupations and All FEC ties place this pair beside other occupation-cycle pages without combining dollar figures. 2014 is a midterm cycle. This join does not rank Actor versus other titles in that window.

The Actor string across every cycle on file

$13,378,363 is the occupation-side denominator. It is not limited to 2014. Actress, Entertainer, Artist, and Performer are other occupation keys if stored separately. Adding those keys to $13,378,363 would be a researcher-built recode, not this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered on itemized individual receipts.

The occupation hub still answers questions this page refuses: every cycle under ACTOR, not only 2014. This file stays on the overlap. $12,817,980 remains on the hub as the complement of $560,383. ACTOR is the occupation string. Actress is a different key if that word appears. Stage versus film versus television is unpublished. Do not fold those sibling strings into $13,378,363 and then cite the sum as this join.

143 donors and the gift math in 2014

Dividing $560,383 by 318 contributions yields about $1,762 per gift. Dividing by 143 donors yields about $3,919 per donor. Gifts per donor average about 2.2 (318 ÷ 143). Those ratios describe this string in 2014, not payroll at firms that employ people with similar titles.

143 is a donor-key count inside the occupation × cycle aggregate, not a headcount of everyone who held the job in 2014. Repeat itemization, couples filing separately, and people who used the string on some receipts but not others all move the 143 figure. The cycle hub still holds every other occupation’s 2014 receipts beside this cell.

What 4.2% of Actor-coded dollars is not

A 4.2% share of Actor-coded dollars from 2014 does not mean the occupation caused those gifts, and it does not mean people with that title funded a policy outcome. Occupation and cycle are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Independent expenditures, committee-to-committee transfers, and unitemized gifts are out of scope.

Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger. This join does not claim that 2014 donations funded contracts or grants. Quote $560,383 as itemized individual receipts tagged ACTOR in 2014, source FEC.gov, and stop there.

How to cite Actor × 2014

A complete claim names Actor and 2014, then $560,383, 318 contributions, 143 donors, and 4.2% of $13,378,363, source FEC.gov. Do not convert 143 keys into licensed or employed practitioners. Do not fold independent expenditures or USAspending awards into the cell. Keep both sides of the name—Actor and 2014—whenever the dollars are quoted. Mean gift $1,762 and mean per donor $3,919 travel with those counts; they do not travel with a licensing board.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Actor donations rolls every cycle into one ACTOR running total. The 2014 election cycle rolls every occupation into one 2014 total. Only the Actor × 2014 overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 318 receipts and $560,383. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-cycle cells.

Occupation hub, 2014 hub, and sibling keys

The occupation hub still holds $12,817,980 outside 2014. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the year, not either hub restated. Actress, Entertainer, Artist, and Performer are other occupation keys if stored separately. Those titles are not parents of ACTOR on this page. Gifts per donor in 2014 average about 2.2. That ratio is 318 divided by 143, not a measure of turnout.

A clean footnote names occupation ACTOR, election cycle 2014, $560,383 in itemized individual contributions, 318 receipts, and 143 donors on FEC.gov. Keep the itemized word. Mean dollars remain about $1,762 per line and $3,919 per donor in the cell. If the live Actor donations overlay has refreshed, quote the overlay. Do not treat 318 as unique workers in the trade.

Questions

How much did Actor-tagged donors give in 2014?
The join records $560,383 in itemized individual contributions for occupation Actor in the 2014 FEC cycle, from 318 contributions and 143 donors. The occupation’s all-cycle total is $13,378,363, so 2014 is 4.2% of that roll. Figures come from FEC.gov aggregates. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
Does this count every actor who donated in 2014?
No. The 143 donor keys are people whose itemized receipts grouped to ACTOR in 2014. Filers who used a different title are other occupation rows. FEC.gov does not verify jobs. The cell totals $560,383 on 318 lines. Unitemized gifts never appear in this aggregate.
What share of Actor occupation money is the 2014 cycle?
4.2%: $560,383 of $13,378,363. The remaining $12,817,980 sits in other cycles on the occupation hub. That share is $560,383 divided by $13,378,363, not a ranking of civic engagement and not a peak-year list. Other years’ amounts are not in this packet except as that remainder.
Where are the live Actor and 2014 tables?
Actor donations carries the $13,378,363 occupation total. The 2014 election cycle hub places Actor beside other occupation strings that year. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling joins. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. This tie page is the Actor × 2014 intersection only.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
