Advertising contributions received by NEW YORKERS AND FRIENDS FOR HOLLY LYNCH

A thin contribution count against a large dollar cell

Occupation ADVERTISING and committee C00658070 produce $1,464,174 from 63 itemized lines. Dividing those dollars by 63 gifts yields about $23,241 per contribution. That mean is an arithmetic result of a small denominator. It is not a typical advertising-worker check, and it is not a billings figure for any shop.

The occupation hub is $7,811,913 across every recipient. About 18.7% of that bucket matched NEW YORKERS AND FRIENDS FOR HOLLY LYNCH. The other 81.3% of ADVERTISING-coded dollars sits elsewhere. Quoting only this tie as ‘advertising money’ drops that remainder.

ADVERTISING as typed is a trade label, not an employer. Filers who wrote COPYWRITER, MEDIA BUYER, or AD EXECUTIVE, if those strings exist, sit in other occupation hubs. This join does not certify employment at a New York agency or a role on any campaign creative team.

ADVERTISING as a filer-entered occupation bucket

The $7,811,913 national total is the ADVERTISING string only. It is not NAICS 5418, not an American Advertising Federation roster, and not a sum of agency PACs. Individual Schedule A lines carry whatever occupation the donor or the committee typed.

LobbyVault groups similar strings so a researcher can open one occupation hub. That grouping still leaves spelling variants in other buckets. This page locates how much of the labeled ADVERTISING money also named C00658070. 63 itemized lines carrying $1,464,174 is the opposite of a high-volume small-check pattern. A researcher who only quotes the $7,811,913 occupation hub will miss how concentrated this recipient cell is, and a researcher who only quotes C00658070 will miss every other occupation on that committee.

NEW YORKERS AND FRIENDS FOR HOLLY LYNCH as the recipient

Committee C00658070 received $1,464,174 from ADVERTISING-coded itemized gifts across 63 contributions. That is this occupation’s slice of the committee overlay, not every dollar the committee raised. 63 rows is a narrow contribution count. Other occupations can fill the rest of the committee table.

The committee name is the FEC filing name. This page does not identify an office, a cycle, or a party from that name. Open the committee hub for the full C00658070 record. Open the Advertising occupation hub for every other recipient of the $7,811,913 bucket.

What 63 gifts cannot tell you

63 itemized contributions totaling $1,464,174 do not prove that advertising professionals bundled for the committee, that a firm reimbursed the gifts, or that the money funded federal awards. USAspending is a separate ledger. FEC individual receipts are personal gifts. Correlation between an occupation string and a committee ID is not causation. It is not a measure of advertising billings, not a New York media-market ranking, and not a claim that 63 donors set committee strategy.

The share of the occupation bucket is 18.7%. The arithmetic mean of about $23,241 is a small-denominator result, not a typical advertising paycheck.

Sixty-three itemized lines is a narrow window. Subtract $1,464,174 from $7,811,913 and the difference is ADVERTISING-coded money at every other committee. The occupation internal link holds that remainder in aggregate; the committee internal link holds every occupation coded to C00658070, not only ADVERTISING.
