Author contributions received by ACTBLUE

A committee slice of the Author book

Schedule A lines that stored occupation AUTHOR and committee C00401224 aggregate to $2,003,190. Count of lines: 48,806. Mean gift $41. Those integers are the quantitative core. Unique donors are not in the facts.

AUTHOR is the occupation string as filed. Writer, Publisher, and Journalist remain other hubs. A large contribution count is itemized lines, not a unique-author census.

Occupation-wide Author storage

Occupation-wide storage $19,237,050 is the parent integer. $2,003,190 is the child integer for C00401224. 48,806 is the child contribution count. Mean $41 uses the child pair only.

Self-reported writing occupation is not a recode of Writer, publisher, and journalist. Those titles remain other hubs.

Mean gift $41 on C00401224

Mean gift $41 travels with the contribution count. Drop the count and the mean cannot be checked. Drop $2,003,190 and the mean is empty.

Amended individual contribution reports can move both integers. This prose is a packet snapshot.

Volume signature for Author × ACTBLUE: $2,003,190 on 48,806 lines, mean $41, 10.4% of the $19,237,050 occupation book. $17,233,860 (89.6%) remains with other committees that stored AUTHOR. Those other recipients are not named here because they are not in the packet. Repeat itemization can raise 48,806 without a published person count. Do not treat the line count as a workforce census or as unique donors. Cycle year is unpublished, so $2,003,190 is not assigned to a single election night.

Neighboring titles and other ledgers

Writer, publisher, and journalist can exist as other strings. They are not inside $2,003,190 unless stored as AUTHOR. Recoding those titles together is a research choice, not this aggregate.

USAspending obligations remain a different dataset. Do not add award dollars to $2,003,190.

This join is self-reported writing occupation. It is not a writers-guild census, Publisher as a sibling key, or a book-sales royalty file. Neighboring occupation strings—Writer, publisher, and journalist—stay off $2,003,190 unless the stored text was exactly AUTHOR. FEC itemized individual contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets. Sharing a geography or a famous name does not merge the ledgers. Quote $2,003,190 as receipts tagged AUTHOR and attributed to C00401224, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Motive, party split, and employer names are not packet fields.

Using the four internal links

Four hrefs cover the join: the Author occupation hub, the ACTBLUE committee page, All occupations, and All FEC ties. Together they let a reader add or remove one filter at a time.

This snapshot recorded $2,003,190 from 48,806 contributions. Live pages can move. FEC.gov is the originating filing system.

Authorized dollars for this join are $2,003,190 in itemized individual contributions, not independent expenditures and not federal awards. The occupation hub total $19,237,050 is every harvested committee for AUTHOR, not a restatement of C00401224. Contribution count 48,806 should be cited with the dollar cell so the mean $41 is visible. Unique donors are unpublished. FEC.gov is the originating public record. This /ties/author-to-actblue/ path explains the occupation × committee overlap only.

Live tables versus this snapshot

This JSON is a packet snapshot. Amended filings move $2,003,190 and $19,237,050. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Live Author and live ACTBLUE pages are the tables.

Party split, recipient names beyond ACTBLUE, and employer breakdowns are not fields in this packet.

Keep Author × C00401224 on /ties/author-to-actblue/ so the occupation hub and the ACTBLUE overlay can stay general. Mixing $2,003,190 into either hub’s headline would hide the join. Overlay /committees/C00401224/ is the committee table. The occupation hub still holds $17,233,860 outside this committee. All occupations lists sibling titles without summing them into this cell. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. Use those indexes to move, not to add dollar figures.

The occupation string AUTHOR is filer-entered. FEC.gov does not recode it into a license class. Neighboring titles remain other occupation hubs.

Committee C00401224 is the recipient key. Other committees that received the same occupation string sit in the remainder $17,233,860, not on this dollar line.

48,806 is a contribution count, not a unique-donor count. Unique donors are unpublished in this packet and are not invented here.

Unitemized gifts never enter $2,003,190. Independent expenditures and USAspending awards are outside the source note.

Cite both sides of the join whenever the dollars are quoted: occupation AUTHOR and committee ACTBLUE (C00401224), then $2,003,190, source FEC.gov.

All occupations lists sibling titles without summing them into this cell. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. Use those indexes to move, not to add dollar figures.
