BUSINESS OWNER in Georgia, not Farmer

BUSINESS OWNER is a filer-entered string. FARMER in Georgia is a separate join in this slice. Do not add BUSINESS OWNER to FARMER as a Georgia proprietor total. The $82,755,159 national total is BUSINESS OWNER only. 13,449 donors produced 221,498 contributions in that occupation bucket. This page does not split those 221,498 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Georgia (GA).

418 Georgia donors produced 6,756 contributions totaling $2,188,805. Donor state GA is the address on the record, not proof of a Georgia license, and not a limit to Georgia candidates. The leftover $80,566,354 is Business Owner-coded money from every other state combined on this extract.

Six thousand seven hundred fifty-six Georgia Business Owner lines

The Georgia campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to GA. This join is only BUSINESS OWNER. Donor state GA is the address on the record, not proof of a Georgia entity filing, and not a limit to Georgia candidates. The Business Owner occupation hub without Georgia still holds 97.4% of the $82,755,159.

Business Owner donations holds the $82,755,159 national occupation total. Georgia campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and All FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields.

Entity files, Farmer GA, and awards

This page does not rank Georgia against Pennsylvania as a more political owner state. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. BUSINESS OWNER is not a Georgia Secretary of State entity file. Donor state GA is not recipient geography. A 418-donor cell is not a unique-person audit of Georgia firm owners.

Subtract the Georgia dollars on this page from the national BUSINESS OWNER occupation total and the difference is $80,566,354 still coded BUSINESS OWNER in every other state combined. That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. A unique-donor count of 418 is not a person-level audit. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join.
