Braxton Assoc Inc political money in the 2012 election cycle

A two-donor presidential stack

Two keys produced 34 lines, about 17 receipts per donor. Average line size is about $86,728. Average per donor is about $1,474,383. That pattern is concentrated reporting inside a year when many committees were raising. The facts do not say whether the 34 lines were Super PAC gifts, candidate gifts, or a mix.

Braxton Assoc Inc is the grouped spelling, including the abbreviated “Assoc.” Other spellings—Associates, Association, a personal name—may live in other rows. This join does not harvest them. The $2,948,766 is this key only.

Abbreviated “Assoc” spellings are common on FEC employer fields and uncommon in legal databases. Braxton Assoc Inc is the key as grouped. In 2012 it carried $2,948,766 on 34 lines from 2 donors, 7.4% of $39,767,970. Two people-keys and about 17 lines each is a concentrated presidential pattern. The $39.8 million lifetime total says other years (and possibly other people in those years) dominate the string. This page only has the 2012 shape.

7.4% of a $39.8 million firm roll

The all-cycle total $39,767,970 is large relative to the 2012 cell. $2,948,766 is 7.4% of that roll. Other years therefore hold most of the string’s recorded individual money. Treating 2012 as the firm’s political-money story would understate the grouping by more than 90%.

The industry hub is the place to see those other years. This page exists so the presidential cut has its own URL with the 34-and-2 shape attached.

Named associates firm versus Consultant

The Consultant occupation page collects people who typed a job label. Braxton Assoc Inc collects people who typed this employer. Summing the two would mix 1,055 midterm consultants (on another page) with these 2 donors. Keep the keys apart.

2012 is a presidential calendar. Recipient identity is on the overlay. This prose names both sides of the join and stops before motive.

Exclusions

Firm PACs, independent expenditures, and state gifts are outside $2,948,766. Federal professional-services awards in USAspending are a different file. An “assoc” name in both systems is not a donation-to-award path.

Unitemized gifts are absent. Two donor keys are FEC matching results for 2012 inside this grouping.

The industry hub holds $39,767,970. The 2012 election-cycle hub places this two-donor cell beside occupation keys with thousands of lines. The ties index holds other joins. Professional-services awards in USAspending are not paid from these itemized gifts. PAC disbursements and independent expenditures are other FEC objects. Keep the individual-receipt boundary explicit when the $2,948,766 is quoted.

Two donors, 34 lines, $2,948,766, 7.4% of $39,767,970: that is the entire 2012 numeric claim. The lifetime roll is large because other years exist, not because 2012 was broad. Do not expand Assoc into a guessed legal title. Do not merge Consultant occupation dollars. The overlay lists recipients; the 2012 cycle hub shows how rare a 34-and-2 shape is next to thousand-line occupation keys.

The $39,767,970 lifetime total can dwarf $2,948,766 until the 7.4% share is stated. State it. Then state 34 lines and 2 donors so the presidential cell is not mistaken for a broad employee program. Braxton Assoc Inc remains an as-filed abbreviation. FEC.gov remains the source. The overlay remains the recipient list.
