Banking political contributions from New York

Banking and New York as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation BANKING and donor state NY produce $3,940,302, 4,115 contributions, and 353 donors. The occupation hub is $9,515,899, 23,376 contributions, and 1,544 donors. New York’s dollar share is about 41.4%; contribution share about 17.6% (4,115 of 23,376); donor share about 22.9% (353 of 1,544). Three hundred fifty-three New York donors are about 22.9% of 1,544 national donors; 4,115 contributions are about 17.6% of 23,376 national rows; dollars are about 41.4% of $9,515,899.

BANKER, INVESTMENT BANKING, and FINANCE, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Banking total. Do not stack BANKING with BANKER or INVESTMENT BANKING into a single New York professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

353 New York donors produced 4,115 contributions, about 11.7 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 15.1 rows per donor nationally (23,376 contributions from 1,544 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this New York cell is about $958, against about $407 nationwide. New York’s dollar share (about 41.4%) runs far ahead of contribution share (about 17.6%), a larger-mean slice of the occupation.

BANKING as a one-word industry string

BANKING is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a charter, a Series 7, or an employer. The $9,515,899 national total is BANKING only. 1,544 donors produced 23,376 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 23,376 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to New York (NY). One thousand five hundred forty-four national donors make BANKING a mid-volume occupation. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state NY.

New York on the state side

353 New York donors produced 4,115 contributions totaling $3,940,302. Donor state NY is the address on the record, not proof of a New York license, and not a limit to New York candidates. NY is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a New York bank charter, and not a map of which campaigns received the $3,940,302.

The New York campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NY. This join is only BANKING. The Banking occupation hub without New York still holds about 58.6% of the $9,515,899. New York’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to NY. BANKING is only this filter.

What the Banking join is not

This page does not merge Banker dollars, count charters, or claim that Banking-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. BANKING is not BANKER even when filers meant the same desk.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. BANKING is not an FDIC charter roster. Donor state NY is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Employer names are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Banking filter

Subtract the New York dollars on this page from the national BANKING occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded BANKING in every other state combined. That remainder ($5,575,597) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count of 353 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 4,115 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $3,940,302 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New York dollars, or only the BANKING national total, drops a key. Three hundred fifty-three donors producing 4,115 contributions totaling $3,940,302 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.

Related tables

Banking donations holds the $9,515,899 national occupation total. New York campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and all FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. BANKER is a different occupation hub if that string exists.
