Anesthesiologist donations in the 2012 FEC cycle

Specialty title inside a presidential year

ANESTHESIOLOGIST plus cycle 2012 equals $1,739,355. This presidential-year URL does not carry other cycles’ dollar amounts; those amounts are not in this packet. Physician, anesthetist, and CRNA remain other keys.

Parent hubs: Anesthesiologist donations and the 2012 election cycle. All FEC ties keeps presidential and midterm specialty cells on separate paths.

The occupation hub for Anesthesiologist lists $16.0 million ($16,038,755) under the exact string ANESTHESIOLOGIST. The 2012 election-cycle hub is a different cut: every occupation that filed in 2012, not only this label. This ties page is the cell where those two filters meet. All occupations and All FEC ties keep sibling joins in the same directory so a reader can move without mixing totals.

Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Anesthesiologist in 2012 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $1.7 million. The occupation page and the 2012 cycle page are the next clicks for named committees and other cuts.

The same specialty rollup

$16.0 million ($16,038,755) is the harvested ANESTHESIOLOGIST total across cycles. The 2012 cell is 10.8% of that rollup. Board certification is still not a field.

A presidential-year share in the low teens is a slice of the string, not a statement that the specialty only gives in presidential years. Other years are not listed here.

Amended individual contribution reports can move $1,739,355. A later harvest of the same occupation string can move $16,038,755. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Live Anesthesiologist donations and the live 2012 election cycle pages are the tables; this prose is a packet snapshot.

Itemized individual contributions are the only receipt class in this cell. Unitemized gifts below the itemization threshold, in-kind goods, and bundled contributions without this occupation string are outside $1,739,355. If a later harvest revises 2,917 or 2,102, revise the volume sentence and leave the occupation rollup ($16,038,755) unchanged unless that rollup moved too.

2,102 donors in 2012

2,102 donors and 2,917 receipts — about 1.4 lines per donor. Mean per receipt about $596; mean per donor about $827. A 2,102-donor file is broad for a specialty title. Broad is a count, not a political diagnosis. No median.

Presidential calendars mix primary and general receipts. This packet does not split $1.7 million by those stages or by party.

2,917 is a receipt count. 2,102 is a distinct-donor count inside this occupation-cycle cell. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by the string. People who left the occupation blank, used a nearby spelling, or listed a more specific title are not in $1.7 million.

Presidential-year citation

Cite $1,739,355 as Anesthesiologist in 2012. Cite $16,038,755 as the specialty-string total. Do not add a midterm figure from another page into this sentence; it is not a fact on this packet.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates. All occupations for neighboring clinical titles.

Dividing $1,739,355 by 2,917 receipts yields about $596 per line. Dividing by 2,102 donors yields about $827 per person in the cell. Those ratios are arithmetic on two harvested integers. They are not medians, not typical gifts, and not a claim about income.

Still not a license file

LobbyVault does not match medical boards. The form said ANESTHESIOLOGIST, and the 2012 dollars are $1.7 million. Filers who wrote physician are outside this cell.

No ranking of specialties, no party split, no specialty-PAC dollars in this total. 2,917 receipts and 2,102 donors are the volume facts.

FEC.gov individual contribution files carry the occupation as the filer typed it. This join does not recode ANESTHESIOLOGIST into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a medical-board specialty. If a researcher needs those crosswalks, they start from the raw string and do the mapping themselves.

Questions

How much did anesthesiologists donate in 2012?

Filers who listed Anesthesiologist itemized $1,739,355 in FEC individual contributions in 2012, from 2,917 receipts and 2,102 donors. That cell is 10.8% of $16,038,755 under ANESTHESIOLOGIST. Physician and CRNA are other occupation keys when those words appear on the form.

Does this presidential-year page include midterm totals?

No. This join is cycle 2012 only. The occupation rollup ($16.0 million) is a single sum across harvested cycles, not a year-by-year list. This packet does not itemize other cycles, so this page does not quote them.

Why is the donor count higher than the receipt-to-donor ratio is modest?

2,102 donors produced 2,917 receipts, about 1.4 lines per donor. A large donor roster with a modest repeat ratio means many people appear, not necessarily that each gave once. The packet has no median and no top-donor table. Distinct donors are not a headcount of practicing anesthesiologists.

Does $1.7 million include specialty PACs?

No. It is individual contributions tagged Anesthesiologist. Specialty PACs file as committees. See Anesthesiologist donations or the 2012 election cycle for committee rows. Party is not a field in this packet. Figures are FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates. Anesthesiologist in 2012 is $1,739,355 on 2,917 receipts from 2,102 donors.
