Blackstone Group itemized receipts tagged to 2012

Blackstone Group × 2012 is a small-roster cell: 31 donors and 99 lines produced $444,046. Mean per donor near $14,324 is a ratio on 31 people, not a typical gift and not a private-equity fund distribution.

Recipient committees and disclosed contributor names are not in these headline facts. Use the Blackstone Group 2012 overlay for those rows.

The BLACKSTONE GROUP total across cycles

The industry book $10,150,476 is not a corporate political budget. It is a sum of Schedule A lines that grouped to this string across cycles. 2012 is one clock on that tape.

A share of 4.37% does not rank Blackstone Group against other employers in 2012. Ranking is not in the packet.

2012 as the cycle key

FEC cycle 2012 is the two-year federal clock labeled 2012. Inside that clock, Blackstone Group is one employer/occupation grouping among many. The 2012 election cycle hub shows other strings in the same window. This page keeps Blackstone Group and 2012 named together so neither hub is mistaken for the join. 99 contributions and 31 donors are counts on itemized receipts grouped to BLACKSTONE GROUP in that window, not a workforce census.

BLACKSTONE GROUP is grouped employer text, not Blackstone Inc. writing a treasury check. THE BLACKSTONE GROUP and BLACKSTONE can be other keys unless a receipt stored here. The Blackstone Group 2012 overlay is the overlay. The Blackstone Group industry page is the parent grouping. The 2012 election cycle page is the cycle census. All FEC ties lists other joins.

What this join is not

USAspending rows for the same calendar years are a different dataset. This join does not claim that $444,046 funded federal awards, or that federal awards funded the gifts. Campaign contributions are not federal awards. Geography or employer text on a contribution line does not convert the gift into an obligation.

Unitemized gifts and corporate treasury schedules are outside $444,046. LobbyVault does not treat 31 unique donors as a headcount of everyone associated with BLACKSTONE GROUP in 2012. Mean gift size near $4,485 and mean per donor near $14,324 are ratios on this presidential-year cell. They are not a 10-K political-activity line. Occupations, employers, and tribal or government strings are stored as the filer typed them. LobbyVault groups exact keys; it does not audit HR files.
