Bookkeeper political contributions from Oregon

Donors coded BOOKKEEPER with a Oregon address account for $185,968 in FEC individual contributions across 2,481 itemized gifts and 44 donors. Nationwide, Bookkeeper-coded receipts total $7,412,920 across 67,261 contributions and 1,907 donors. That is 2.5% of occupation dollars. The page is a join, not a restatement of either hub. This is OR clerical high-repeat overlap, not a CPA license extract, a Bookkeeper certification roll, or an accounting-firm census.

  • The national Bookkeeper occupation total is $7,412,920 from 1,907 donors and 67,261 contributions.
  • Oregon holds 2.5% of Bookkeeper-coded dollars and 2.3% of Bookkeeper-coded donors.
  • BOOKKEEPER is a filer-entered FEC string, not a CPA license extract, a Bookkeeper certification roll, or an accounting-firm census.

Bookkeeper and Oregon as a high-row clerical join

44 Oregon donors produced 2,481 contributions totaling $185,968. That is 2.5% of the $7,412,920 Bookkeeper occupation total. Correlation is not causation: occupation does not cause the gifts, and Oregon as donor state does not cause recipient geography.

Rows per donor in the Oregon cell average 56.4, versus about 35.3 nationally for BOOKKEEPER. Repeat itemization can lift the contribution count without lifting unique donors. Unitemized gifts under the FEC itemization threshold never enter either total.

This relationship is a bookkeeping join on two fields from FEC.gov. It is not a CPA license extract, a Bookkeeper certification roll, or an accounting-firm census. Oregon Board of Accountancy licenses are not joined to BOOKKEEPER.

BOOKKEEPER versus ACCOUNTANT as separate FEC labels

Filers typed BOOKKEEPER. The FEC does not rewrite that text into a standard occupational taxonomy. Oregon Board of Accountancy licenses are not joined to BOOKKEEPER. Nationwide, 1,907 donors produced 67,261 contributions totaling $7,412,920.

Keep Bookkeeper on its own Oregon page. Mixing it with a sibling string would double-count some people and miss others, and this packet has no counts for those other strings. The Oregon cell is only the BOOKKEEPER × OR overlap: $185,968, 2,481 contributions, 44 donors.

Forty-four Oregon Bookkeeper donors

44 Oregon donors produced 2,481 contributions totaling $185,968. Donor state OR is the address on the contribution record, not proof of a Oregon workplace, and not a limit to Oregon candidates.

The Oregon campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to OR. This join is only BOOKKEEPER. ACCOUNTANT, CPA, and ACCOUNTING, if used, sit in other occupation hubs. They are not this page even when they share the OR state code.

Bookkeeper donations without Oregon still holds the remainder of the $7,412,920 occupation total ($7,226,952). A Oregon directory of workplaces would need employment data this FEC join does not contain.

A clerical string is not a CPA roster

Oregon Board of Accountancy licenses are not joined to BOOKKEEPER. Public records, two fields, one intersection. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates; occupation labels are filer-entered.

Independent expenditures, party coordinated spends, and committee-to-committee transfers are other FEC tables. They are not added into $185,968. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee. This page does not name committees or donors.

Read the three Oregon counts as one cell: $185,968 dollars, 2,481 contributions, 44 donors. Read the three national Bookkeeper counts as the other: $7,412,920, 67,261, 1,907. Percentages (2.5% of dollars, 3.7% of rows, 2.3% of donors) are ratios of those six integers. No election cycle is named in these aggregates, so the totals are the LobbyVault FEC extract window rather than a single even-year cycle. Forty-four Oregon donors produced 2,481 itemized rows — among the higher-repeat Bookkeeper state cells in this extract.

Bookkeeper dollars from every other state

Subtract the Oregon dollars on this page from the national Bookkeeper occupation total and the difference is $7,226,952 still coded Bookkeeper in every other state combined. That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. Bookkeeper donations holds the unlabeled-by-state total; Oregon campaign finance holds every occupation with this state code; all occupations and all FEC ties place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Oregon dollars, or only the Bookkeeper national total, drops a key.

This relationship is not a forecast and not a ranking of influence. Occupation does not cause contributions, and donor state does not cause recipient geography. Or clerical high-repeat overlap is the unit: BOOKKEEPER × OR = $185,968.

Related tables for Bookkeeper and Oregon

Bookkeeper donations holds the $7,412,920 national occupation total and the 1,907-donor count. Oregon campaign finance holds all itemized individual activity coded to OR. All occupations and all FEC ties place this pair among other occupation-state intersections. None of those hubs is a substitute for quoting $185,968, 2,481 contributions, and 44 donors together.
