Associate political contributions from Maryland
Maryland is the donor-state code on $620,367 of Associate-labeled itemized gifts. 62 donor keys produced 1,687 contributions, about 27.2 lines per key. Nationally the same occupation string shows about 26.9 lines per donor across 2,045 keys. Neither ratio is a workforce census. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered.

$620,367 at the occupation-state overlay
Cycle-free geography: donor state MD and Associate (ASSOCIATE) are the two nouns this URL must keep together. Drop Associate and you are citing the Maryland hub across every occupation. Drop Maryland and you are citing an occupation hub that still mixes every other state. Keep both and the number is $620,367 from 1,687 contributions and 62 donors.
4.2% names $620,367 as a share of $14,867,080. It does not name a share of Maryland statewide receipts, a share of licensed workers, or a share of itemized giving by every nearby title. Those denominators are absent. $14,246,713 is the complement inside the same occupation string, other states only.
ASSOCIATE is a short rank string. Associate Attorney and Associate Professor are other keys when those extra words appear. Setting is unpublished. Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates grouped by occupation and donor state. Not a claim about federal spending.
Associate is a filer-entered label
FEC.gov stores the occupation as typed. This join uses ASSOCIATE. Associate Attorney, Associate Professor, Sales Associate, and Associate Director are other keys when those characters appear. LobbyVault does not recode the string into a law-firm associate census, a university faculty file, or a retail payroll. Cite $620,367 for this title in Maryland on 1,687 receipts from 62 donors.
The occupation hub still holds $14,246,713 outside Maryland. Most of the $14,867,080 roll is not this state’s cell if 4.2% is a modest slice — or a large slice if the state dominates. Either way, quote the share with both dollars.
Maryland campaign finance versus this Associate filter
Maryland as used here is donor geography on itemized individual receipts. It is not a Secretary of State campaign-finance extract and not a state PAC database. Federal itemized individual contributions are the coverage. State-only filings never enter $620,367.
ASSOCIATE is a short rank string. Associate Attorney and Associate Professor are other keys when those extra words appear. Setting is unpublished. Keep Maryland in the same sentence as Associate when citing $620,367. Dropping the occupation noun turns the figure into an unpublished statewide total.
27.2 gifts per donor is arithmetic, not turnout
27.2 gifts per donor is 1,687 divided by 62. That ratio is not a measure of civic engagement and not a turnout figure. It is a line-to-key quotient inside one occupation-state cell. Quote it with both integers.
62 donor keys totaling $620,367 is not a ranking of Associate against other occupations in Maryland. This join has one occupation and one state. Neighboring occ-state pages are other keys.
Coverage limits on the Associate × Maryland cell
Coverage is itemized individual contributions with occupation ASSOCIATE and donor state MD. $620,367, 1,687 lines, 62 keys. The occupation total $14,867,080 uses the same string without the state filter. Anything else a reader might want — party, committee, employer, city — is not in this packet.
Donor state is an address code. That fact locates the money on the disclosure form. It does not explain motives. See Associate donations, Maryland campaign finance, all occupations, and all FEC ties for adjacent tables. Source: FEC.gov.
Amended reports and live hubs
Individual reports amend. A later extract can raise or lower $620,367 without this JSON file changing. Treat the live Associate hub and the live Maryland hub as current, and treat this prose as a labeled snapshot of packet facts: $620,367, 1,687, 62, $14,867,080.
ASSOCIATE is a short rank string. Associate Attorney and Associate Professor are other keys when those extra words appear. Setting is unpublished. Sibling occupation-state pages for other states or other titles are other slugs. Do not reuse $620,367 on those pages.
Repeat the join in one sentence for citation: occupation Associate, donor state Maryland (MD), $620,367 itemized, 1,687 contributions, 62 donors, 4.2% of $14,867,080. ASSOCIATE is a short rank string. Associate Attorney and Associate Professor are other keys when those extra words appear. Setting is unpublished. Associate Attorney, Associate Professor, Sales Associate, and Associate Director stay on other occupation pages. The Maryland campaign finance hub still mixes every other title. All occupations and All FEC ties are indexes, not extra dollar columns.
What a reader may not do with $620,367: treat it as payroll, treat 62 as a workforce census, treat 4.2% as a share of Maryland statewide receipts, or treat the cell as money that funded USAspending awards. What a reader may do: quote the pair, quote the source FEC.gov, and follow the four internal links. Mean about $368 per contribution and $10,006 per donor remain attached to 1,687 and 62. About 27.2 lines per donor remains 1,687 divided by 62.
Questions
- What is the Maryland Associate contribution total?
- $620,367 from 1,687 itemized contributions and 62 donor keys whose occupation grouped to ASSOCIATE and whose donor state grouped to MD. Source: FEC.gov. That number is not the occupation’s national total of $14,867,080. Mixing the two columns is incorrect.
- What share of Associate occupation receipts is Maryland?
- 4.2%. That is $620,367 divided by $14,867,080. The complement is $14,246,713 from other states under the same occupation string. The share is not a share of donors nationwide, votes, or federal awards. Contribution share is 3.1%; donor share is 3.0%.
- Does occupation ASSOCIATE mean the donors were licensed in Maryland?
- No. Occupation is a filer-entered field. FEC.gov does not verify licenses, degrees, or employment. ASSOCIATE is a short rank string. Associate Attorney and Associate Professor are other keys when those extra words appear. Setting is unpublished. 62 is a donor-key count, not a credential census. The dollars remain $620,367 on 1,687 lines.
- Where are the live Associate and Maryland tables?
- Associate donations carries the $14,867,080 occupation total. Maryland campaign finance places Associate beside other occupation strings in that state. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling joins. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. This tie page is the Associate × Maryland intersection only.
FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and donor state. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
