Board Member occupation money in the 2012 FEC cycle

Board Member as occupation, 2012 as the cycle

Two FEC fields define the cell: occupation BOARD MEMBER and election cycle 2012. Matching rows sum to $487,741, 331 contributions, and 187 donors. Drop either key and the number changes. Director, board of directors, trustee, and chairman are other keys if those words appear. This join does not recode the label into an SEC director list, a nonprofit Form 990 officer extract, or a company PAC. Other cycle amounts are not fields in this packet except as the remainder on the occupation hub.

Parent hubs: Board Member donations at /occupations/board-member/ and the 2012 election cycle at /election-cycles/2012/. All occupations at /occupations/ lists neighboring titles. All FEC ties at /ties/ keeps each occupation-year cell on its own path so a reader can move without mixing $487,741 into another year or another string. Do not add those parent pages into this cell.

Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Board Member in 2012 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $487,741. Corporate versus nonprofit versus advisory-board roles is unpublished for Board Member in 2012. The occupation page and the 2012 cycle page are the next clicks for named committees. Under two hundred donor keys and just over three hundred receipts is a concentrated governance-title cell with a higher mean than many staff titles.

BOARD MEMBER, not director or chairman

$8.1 million ($8,057,226) belongs to the exact string BOARD MEMBER across harvested cycles. It is not an SEC director list, a nonprofit Form 990 officer extract, or a company PAC. People who wrote nearby wording — director, board of directors, trustee, and chairman — sit in other rows if the characters differ. The 2012 slice is 6.1% of that title bucket ($487,741 of $8,057,226). Share of BOARD MEMBER is not share of all 2012 receipts. The remainder, $7,569,485, sits in other cycles on the occupation hub.

Amended individual contribution reports can move $487,741. A later harvest of the same occupation string can move $8,057,226. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Live Board Member donations and the live 2012 election cycle pages are the tables; this prose is a packet snapshot. Itemized individual contributions are the only receipt class in this cell. Unitemized gifts below the itemization threshold, in-kind goods, and bundled contributions without this occupation string are outside $487,741.

187 board-member donors and 331 receipts in 2012

187 donors and 331 receipts — about 1.8 lines per donor. Mean per receipt about $1,474; mean per donor about $2,608. Those ratios are arithmetic on two harvested integers. They are not medians, not typical gifts, and not a claim about income. Under two hundred donor keys and just over three hundred receipts is a concentrated governance-title cell with a higher mean than many staff titles. No median is published in this packet.

Repeat gifts add receipts. 331 is a line count, not 187 one-time gifts. Corporate versus nonprofit versus advisory-board roles is not encoded in the occupation string. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by BOARD MEMBER. People who left occupation blank, used a nearby spelling, or listed a more specific title are not in $487,741. This page does not name directors. Committee pages, not this occupation-cycle join, carry recipient IDs.

Governance title versus employer PACs

Cite $487,741 as Board Member in 2012. Cite $8,057,226 as this title’s occupation total. Do not add the employer’s PAC to either figure. Those filings are committee reports. Mixing PAC spending with $487,741 would blend FEC tables. All occupations lists neighboring titles so a searcher can open the other string’s cycle cell rather than rescale 6.1%.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. This join does not recode BOARD MEMBER into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a license class. If a researcher needs those crosswalks, they start from the raw string. Correlation is not causation: a presidential-year total does not prove the occupation’s motives, and it does not attach these gifts to any federal spending dataset. USAspending.gov awards are a different ledger. This page does not claim that 2012 donations funded contracts or grants.

How to cite Board Member money in 2012

A clean footnote names occupation BOARD MEMBER, election cycle 2012, $487,741 in itemized individual contributions, 331 receipts, and 187 donors on FEC.gov. Keep the itemized word. Mean dollars remain about $1,474 per line and $2,608 per donor in the cell. If the live Board Member donations overlay has refreshed, quote the overlay. Do not treat 331 as unique workers in the trade named by BOARD MEMBER.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Board Member donations rolls every cycle into one BOARD MEMBER running total. The 2012 election cycle rolls every occupation into one 2012 total. Only the Board Member × 2012 overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 331 receipts and $487,741. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-cycle cells.

Occupation hub, 2012 hub, and Director as a sibling

The occupation hub still holds $7,569,485 outside 2012. Most of the $8,057,226 roll is not this cycle’s cell. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the year, not either hub restated. This page does not name directors. Committee pages, not this occupation-cycle join, carry recipient IDs. Gifts per donor in 2012 average about 1.8. That ratio is 331 divided by 187, not a measure of turnout. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
