Candidate political money — 2010 cycle

2010 receipts tagged Candidate

LobbyVault stores this URL because two tables share rows: the Candidate occupation aggregate and the 2010 election-cycle aggregate. The overlap is $625,680 on 438 itemized individual lines from 54 donor keys. CANDIDATE is an occupation string on individual receipts, not a list of FEC candidate IDs. People who listed this word on Form 3 itemizations land in the cell. Committee filings by candidate committees are a different FEC table. Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Candidate in 2010 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $625,680.

Share of CANDIDATE is not share of all 2010 receipts. 3.8% describes this title bucket only. Independent expenditures, committee-to-committee transfers, and unitemized gifts are out of scope. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this join does not claim that 2010 donations funded contracts or grants. Fifty-four donor keys against 438 lines is a high gifts-per-donor ratio for this occupation string. That pattern describes repeat itemization on the CANDIDATE label, not a roster of named campaigns.

The occupation-side denominator $16,508,299

Open Candidate donations for the $16,508,299 roll. That hub still holds $15,882,619 outside 2010. Most of the occupation total is not this cycle’s cell when the year share is 3.8%. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the year.

Candidate in 2010 is still the same filer-entered string as every other year on the occupation hub. What changes is the two-year clock and the harvested sums $625,680, 438, and 54. Keep both sides of the name when the dollars are quoted.

Mean gift $1,428 and 8.1 gifts per donor

438 is a line count, not 54 one-time gifts. Repeat itemization inside the same two-year window raises the gifts-per-donor figure to about 8.1. Mean dollars remain about $1,428 per line and $11,587 per donor in the cell. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by CANDIDATE.

Donor keys are not named on this page. The packet supplies counts, not identities. Do not invent contributors, employers, or committees to explain $625,680. Officeholder, Politician, and Elected Official are other occupation keys. Candidate-committee receipts are not this cell. The 2010 election cycle hub is the next click for named committees in that year, still without attaching those names to this occupation cell unless the live table shows the join.

Candidate is not an FEC candidate master file or a state ballot list

Candidate in 2010 is not an FEC candidate master file or a state ballot list. It is not an FEC candidate-committee roster, a ballot-access file, or a campaign-staff census. The harvested occupation field is the string CANDIDATE. Recodes into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a license class are researcher-built and are not this join.

Unitemized money never appears in $625,680. In-kind goods and earmarks without this occupation string are outside the cell. Committee PACs and other committee filings sit on committee reports, not on this individual-contribution occupation join. Keep itemized in the sentence.

FEC.gov citation for Candidate in 2010

Write Candidate, 2010, $625,680, 438 contributions, and 54 donors in one sentence. Add 3.8% of $16,508,299 if the occupation share matters. Source FEC.gov. That sentence is the join. It is not a license census and not a federal award total.

Live tables remain the occupation hub and the 2010 cycle hub. This prose is a packet snapshot of the join. If FEC.gov restates an amendment, the overlay updates; do not keep a stale $625,680 after the live Candidate table has moved.

Moving from this cell to the parent hubs

Use Candidate donations when the question is every cycle under CANDIDATE. Use the 2010 election cycle when the question is every occupation in 2010. Use this page when the question is both: Candidate and 2010, $625,680, 438 receipts, 54 donors.

Repeat the four numbers together: $625,680 in the 2010 cycle, 438 contributions, 54 donors, and 3.8% of $16,508,299. That sentence is the join. It is not a license census and not a federal award total. Fifty-four donor keys against 438 lines is a high gifts-per-donor ratio for this occupation string. That pattern describes repeat itemization on the CANDIDATE label, not a roster of named campaigns.

Questions

How many Candidate donors itemized in 2010?

54 donor keys and 438 contributions, totaling $625,680. About 8.1 gifts per donor and $1,428 per gift are arithmetic on those integers, not medians. The occupation total is $16,508,299, so 2010 is 3.8%. Source FEC.gov. Occupation labels are filer-entered and are not a license census.

Does this count every person running for federal office in 2010?

No. The 54 donor keys are people whose itemized receipts grouped to CANDIDATE in 2010. Officeholder, Politician, and Elected Official are other occupation keys. Candidate-committee receipts are not this cell. FEC.gov does not verify jobs. The cell totals $625,680 on 438 lines. Unitemized gifts never appear in this aggregate.

What share of Candidate occupation money is the 2010 cycle?

3.8%: $625,680 of $16,508,299. The remaining $15,882,619 sits in other cycles on the occupation hub. That share is $625,680 divided by $16,508,299, not a ranking of civic engagement and not a peak-year list. Other years’ amounts are not in this packet except as that remainder.

How should a researcher cite Candidate in 2010?

Name occupation Candidate, cycle 2010, $625,680, 438 contributions, and 54 donors, source FEC.gov. Add 3.8% of $16,508,299 if the occupation share is in scope. Do not convert donor keys into a license census. Live hubs: Candidate donations and 2010 election cycle.
