CFO political contributions from Illinois

CFO and Illinois as an officer-abbreviation join

Occupation CFO and donor state IL produce $1,718,900, 2,848 contributions, and 240 donors. The occupation hub is $36,233,003, 78,219 contributions, and 6,214 donors. Dollar, contribution, and donor shares cluster within a few points (4.7%, 3.6%, 3.9%). Illinois tracks the national CFO mix rather than concentrating one of the three measures. Illinois CFO shares sit in the high-threes to mid-fours on a large officer-abbreviation bucket.

CFO is a three-letter officer abbreviation, not a spelled-out title recode. Nearby strings — CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER, FINANCE, CONTROLLER, and TREASURER — sit in other occupation hubs when filers used those words. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $1,718,900 or $36,233,003. CFO and CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER can split the same people if they typed both strings across filings.

240 Illinois donors produced 2,848 contributions, about 11.9 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 12.6 rows per donor nationally (78,219 contributions from 6,214 donors). Mean dollars per donor in this Illinois cell are about $7,162, versus about $5,831 across the occupation. Those ratios are arithmetic on the six packet numbers, not a gift-size ranking of influence.

CFO as a stored abbreviation, not a spelled-out recode

CFO is filer-entered. The FEC file does not verify that the donor is a sitting chief financial officer. The national grouping is 6,214 donors, 78,219 contributions, and $36,233,003.

78,219 contributions from 6,214 donors shows repeat itemization nationwide. Illinois’s 2,848 contributions from 240 donors is the IL-coded piece. This page does not split those rows by cycle, employer, or recipient committee. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Illinois.

Two hundred forty Illinois CFO donors

240 Illinois donors produced 2,848 contributions totaling $1,718,900. Donor state IL is the address on the record, not proof of a Illinois professional license, and not a limit to Illinois candidates. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee.

The Illinois campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to IL. This join is only CFO. Subtract $1,718,900 from $36,233,003 and $34,514,103 remains coded CFO in every other state combined (75,371 contributions, 5,974 donors). That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties.

This page does not measure cfo output, does not rank firms, and does not claim that CFO-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Not a public-company 10-K officer list, not a CPA roster, and not an Illinois SOS officer extract.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Itemized individual contributions only. Firm names, license numbers, and employer strings are not in these six numbers. Donor state IL is not recipient geography.

Finance-officer titles that stay unmerged

A unique-donor count is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total can hide that skew. Keeping $1,718,900, 2,848 contributions, and 240 donors on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Illinois dollars, or only the CFO national total, drops a key.

CFO donations holds the $36,233,003 national occupation total. Illinois 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. CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER, FINANCE, CONTROLLER, is a different occupation string if a filer used it.

This relationship is not a forecast and not a ranking of influence. Occupation does not cause contributions, and donor state does not cause recipient geography. Public records, two fields, one intersection. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates; occupation labels are filer-entered. CFO and CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER can split the same people if they typed both strings across filings.
