Business Manager donations in Wisconsin on FEC.gov

Filers who listed Business Manager and Wisconsin itemized $231,099 in FEC individual contributions — 928 receipts from 26 donors. BUSINESS MANAGER is the occupation string on the form, not a verified job census. Nationwide the occupation sums to $8,721,770; this Wisconsin cell is 2.6% of that sum. This page is the join of the Business Manager occupation table and the Wisconsin donor-state table, not a restatement of either hub.

Business Manager × Wisconsin

BUSINESS MANAGER plus donor state WI equals $231,099. That figure is the harvested sum of itemized individual contributions in which the occupation field matched this string and the contributor state was Wisconsin. Manager, General Manager, Office Manager, and Operations Manager are other keys if those words appear. This join does not recode the label into a chamber PAC, an HR headcount, or neighboring titles stored as other keys. Other state amounts are not fields in this packet except as the remainder $8,490,671. Wisconsin’s Business Manager cell is 26 donor keys on a two-word management title; Manager alone remains a different occupation hub.

Parent hubs: Business Manager donations and Wisconsin campaign finance. All occupations lists neighboring titles. All FEC ties keeps each occupation-state cell on its own path so a reader can move without mixing $231,099 into another state or another string. Do not add those parent pages into this cell.

BUSINESS MANAGER as typed, not a job census

$8,721,770 belongs to the exact string BUSINESS MANAGER nationwide. It is not a chamber PAC, an HR headcount, or neighboring titles stored as other keys. People who wrote nearby wording — Manager, General Manager, Office Manager, and Operations Manager — sit in other rows if the characters differ. The Wisconsin slice is 2.6% of that title bucket. Share of BUSINESS MANAGER is not share of all Wisconsin receipts.

928 Business Manager receipts coded to WI

26 donors and 928 receipts — about 35.7 lines per donor. Mean per receipt about $249; mean per donor about $8,888. Those ratios are arithmetic on two harvested integers. They are not medians, not typical gifts, and not a claim about income. No median is published in this packet.

Repeat gifts add receipts. 928 is a line count, not 26 one-time gifts. BUSINESS MANAGER is the two-word management title. Manager alone is a different key. Industry and employer are unpublished. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by BUSINESS MANAGER. People who left occupation blank, used a nearby spelling, or listed a more specific title are not in $231,099.

Wisconsin as a donor-state code next to Business Manager

Donor state WI is the contributor’s coded state on the itemized record, not a statement that the recipient is a Wisconsin candidate or that the work was done in Wisconsin. Inside that filter, this occupation cell is $231,099 from 928 contributions and 26 donors. The occupation’s national book remains $8,721,770.

The Wisconsin hub still includes every other occupation. Occupation pages for Business Manager still include every other state. Only this join isolates Business Manager × Wisconsin. Independent expenditures are omitted from $231,099. Adjacent pages for Wisconsin campaign finance, Business Manager donations, all occupations, and all FEC ties keep those broader cuts.

Self-reported Business Manager versus committee filings

Cite $231,099 as Business Manager in Wisconsin. Cite $8,721,770 as this title’s occupation total. Do not add a professional association’s own committee filings to either figure. Those filings are committee reports. Mixing PAC spending with $231,099 would blend FEC tables. All occupations lists neighboring titles so a searcher can open the other string’s state cell rather than rescale 2.6%.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and donor state. This join does not recode BUSINESS MANAGER 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 Wisconsin total does not prove the occupation’s motives, and it does not attach these gifts to any federal spending dataset.
