C E O political contributions from Minnesota

Minnesota donors who listed their occupation as C E O reported $353,438 in FEC itemized individual contributions. That join covers 92 contributions from 5 donors. Nationwide, C E O-coded receipts total $1,300,956 across 892 contributions and 141 donors. Minnesota holds about 27.2% of those dollars. Five Minnesota donors account for about 27.2% of the entire C E O occupation bucket. That is a concentrated cell: spaced C E O is not the same hub as CEO. This page is not an executive-compensation survey.

Key figures

  • Minnesota C E O-coded donors account for $353,438, 92 contributions, and 5 donors.
  • The national C E O occupation total is $1,300,956 from 141 donors and 892 contributions.
  • Minnesota holds about 27.2% of those dollars.
  • Five Minnesota donors hold about 27.2% of spaced C E O dollars; CEO without spaces is another hub.

C E O and Minnesota as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation C E O and donor state MN produce $353,438, 92 contributions, and 5 donors. The occupation hub is $1,300,956, 892 contributions, and 141 donors. Minnesota’s dollar share is about 27.2%; contribution share about 10.3% (92 of 892); donor share about 3.5% (5 of 141). Dollar share (about 27.2%) dwarfs donor share (about 3.5%) and contribution share (about 10.3%). Five people produced 92 itemized rows totaling $353,438.

CEO, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, and CHIEF EXECUTIVE sit in other hubs. Stacking them with C E O invents a combined executive total the file does not publish. Do not stack C E O with CEO or CHIEF EXECUTIVE into a single Minnesota professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

5 Minnesota donors produced 92 contributions, about 18.4 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 6.3 rows per donor nationally (892 contributions from 141 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this Minnesota cell is about $3,842, against about $1,458 nationwide. Minnesota’s about 27.2% share of $1,300,956 is a handful-of-donors slice of a small, spaced-letter occupation bucket, not a statewide CEO census.

C E O as a spaced spelling variant

C E O is a filer-entered string. The spaces are the point of the hub. Filers who typed CEO without spaces are not in these 141 national donors. The $1,300,956 national total is C E O only. 141 donors produced 892 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 892 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Minnesota (MN). One thousand three hundred thousand dollars nationwide is a thin occupation bucket. This tie asks how much of that spaced-letter money also carries donor state MN.

Minnesota on the state side

5 Minnesota donors produced 92 contributions totaling $353,438. Donor state MN is the address on the record, not proof of a Minnesota license, and not a limit to Minnesota candidates. MN is the address on the itemized record. Five unique donors is not a Minnesota executive directory.

The Minnesota campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to MN. This join is only C E O. The C E O occupation hub without Minnesota still holds about 72.8% of the $1,300,956. Minnesota’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to MN. C E O is only this filter.

What the join is not

This page does not rank Minnesota companies, merge CEO variants, or claim that C E O-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Spaced C E O is bookkeeping, not a different job from CEO, and not proof they are the same person either.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. C E O is not a CEO roster. Donor state MN is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Employer names are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one spaced C E O filter

Subtract the Minnesota dollars on this page from the national C E O occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded C E O in every other state combined. That remainder ($947,518) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count of 5 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 92 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $353,438 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Minnesota dollars, or only the C E O national total, drops a key. Five donors holding about 27.2% of the occupation dollars is the fact to keep next to the $353,438 headline.

Related tables

C E O donations holds the $1,300,956 national occupation total. Minnesota 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. CEO without spaces is a different occupation hub if that string exists.

Nationwide, C E O-coded receipts are $1,300,956 from 892 contributions and 141 donors. Minnesota is about 27.2% of those dollars. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
Is C E O the same as CEO?
This hub is the spaced string C E O only. Filers who typed CEO sit in another occupation bucket if that string exists. State is MN. The 5 Minnesota donors used occupation C E O and state MN. Filers who wrote CEO or CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER may sit in a different occupation bucket. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov is the source.
What share of C E O FEC money is from Minnesota?

Does this money go to Minnesota candidates?
Not necessarily. Donor state is Minnesota. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee. This page does not allocate the $353,438 by office or by in-state versus out-of-state campaigns. Open the state hub for every occupation coded to MN; open the occupation hub for every state in the bucket.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and donor state. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
