How Attorney meets Baton Rouge, LA on the FEC tape
$19,771 is the overlap of two filer-entered fields: grouping ATTORNEY and contributor city BATON ROUGE with state LA. LobbyVault keeps a Baton Rouge, LA city hub and a Attorney industry hub. Neither hub is this join. The city hub mixes every employer string in Baton Rouge. The industry hub follows that string across cities. This page is only both filters at once.
30 receipts from 23 donors produced $19,771. Repeat gifts add receipts; 23 donors is the headcount in this extract for the join, not a census of everyone in Baton Rouge tied to that label. Arithmetic mean per receipt is about $659; per donor, about $860. Those means are division of packet facts, not typical salaries and not medians.
ATTORNEY is stored as an occupation/employer grouping on the itemization, not a NAICS sector and not every related job title. ATTORNEY is a stored occupation string, not a state-bar census and not every lawyer or law-firm name. Other spellings, parent-company names, job titles, and blank employer rows are other keys. $19,771 counts only rows that stored this string in Baton Rouge, LA. City labels are filer-entered.
What the Baton Rouge, LA city book holds
On the city side, BATON ROUGE in LA indexes $73,570,268 of itemized individual dollars on 158797 city-field lines. The Attorney slice is $19,771 (under 0.1%). The complement inside the city book used other stored groupings ($73,550,497). 158797 is a city-wide contribution count, not a unique-resident count.
Baton Rouge is stored as BATON ROUGE in Louisiana; New Orleans and Shreveport are other city keys. Keep state LA on the name so Baton Rouge is not merged with a same-named place elsewhere. Donor city is not recipient city. Committees that received the $19,771 can file anywhere.
Attorney is an exact stored string
On the industry side, the packet lists $19,771, 30 receipts, and 23 donors for ATTORNEY. With the city filter, those same figures are the Baton Rouge intersection in this snapshot. Do not invent a larger national industry total. If you need Attorney in every city, use the industry hub, not this URL.
Occupation string labels can look like jobs or like firm names. Either way the rule is exact match. ATTORNEY in BATON ROUGE is counted. A longer label that merely contains related words is a different key unless it is exactly this string.
Caveats on Attorney in Baton Rouge
Do not invent donor names for the 23 donors. Do not invent committees. Do not invent a cycle split. The packet did not include them. 30 receipts totaling $19,771 is the full numeric join besides the city book ($73,570,268 / 158797).
Spellings that almost match ATTORNEY are other keys. City spellings that almost match BATON ROUGE are other keys. Exact match is the method. ATTORNEY is stored as an occupation/employer grouping on the itemization, not a NAICS sector and not every related job title.
Keeping both nouns: Attorney and Baton Rouge
Both nouns: Attorney and Baton Rouge, LA. Both totals: $19,771 and $73,570,268. Both counts: 30 join receipts and 158797 city-field contributions. Donor headcount: 23. Share: under 0.1%.

Baton Rouge is stored as BATON ROUGE in Louisiana; New Orleans and Shreveport are other city keys. Source: FEC.gov. Live hubs win on disagreement.
This snapshot freezes five numbers and two strings: $19,771, 30, 23, $73,570,268, 158797, ATTORNEY, BATON ROUGE. Everything else a searcher might want — party, office, cycle, recipient name, donor name — is absent from the packet and therefore absent here. Occupation string on the industry side is still not NAICS. under 0.1% uses city dollars as the denominator, not Louisiana dollars. $659 and $860 use $19,771 as the numerator. Keep those identities separate. If the live hubs disagree, trust FEC.gov and the newer extract, not an average of snapshot and live.

Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and Louisiana state-office filings stay outside every total on this page. Repeat itemizations explain why 30 receipts and 23 donors can differ. Arithmetic means near $659 per receipt and $860 per donor are division of packet facts only.
Questions
- Where do Attorney and Baton Rouge, LA overlap in FEC data?
- On itemized individual contribution rows that stored both ATTORNEY and BATON ROUGE. Those rows sum to $19,771 across 30 receipts from 23 donors. The city hub without the industry filter remains $73,570,268 on 158797 lines. Original filings are on FEC.gov. Labels are filer-entered.
- Why is the Attorney share of Baton Rouge only under 0.1%?
- Because the key is an exact string. Most of the $73,570,268 Baton Rouge book used other employer labels (100.0%). under 0.1% is a table identity, not proof the trade is absent. Do not recode ATTORNEY into a sector and then treat under 0.1% as that sector's weight.
- Does this page name the Attorney donors in Baton Rouge?
- No. The packet publishes 23 donors as a harvested count, not a roster. This prose does not invent names, committees, parties, or cycles. $19,771 on 30 receipts is the numeric join. Live hubs control if a later FEC extract revises the count.
- Are Baton Rouge Attorney gifts the same as local candidate spending?
- No. Donor city BATON ROUGE is an address field. Recipients can be committees anywhere in the FEC system. $19,771 is not spending by Baton Rouge candidates and is not a Louisiana office filing total. Independent expenditures are another FEC table and are omitted here.
