CFO political contributions from New Jersey

CFO and New Jersey as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation CFO and donor state NJ produce $1,417,528, 2,127 contributions, and 209 donors. The occupation hub is $36,233,003, 78,219 contributions, and 6,214 donors. New Jersey’s dollar share is about 3.9%; contribution share about 2.7% (2,127 of 78,219); donor share about 3.4% (209 of 6,214). Two hundred nine New Jersey donors are about 3.4% of 6,214 national donors; 2,127 contributions are about 2.7% of 78,219 national rows; dollars are about 3.9% of $36,233,003.

CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER, FINANCE DIRECTOR, and CONTROLLER, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this CFO total. Do not stack CFO with CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER or CONTROLLER into a single New Jersey professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

209 New Jersey donors produced 2,127 contributions, about 10.2 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 12.6 rows per donor nationally (78,219 contributions from 6,214 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this New Jersey cell is about $666, against about $463 nationwide. New Jersey’s about 3.9% share of $36,233,003 is a many-person finance-title slice, not a public-company officer roster.

CFO as an abbreviation-title string

CFO is a filer-entered string. The three-letter title on Schedule A is the filter. Spelled-out CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER is a different hub if filers used those words. The $36,233,003 national total is CFO only. 6,214 donors produced 78,219 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 78,219 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to New Jersey (NJ). Six thousand two hundred fourteen national donors make this a many-person bucket. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state NJ.

New Jersey on the state side

209 New Jersey donors produced 2,127 contributions totaling $1,417,528. Donor state NJ is the address on the record, not proof of a New Jersey license, and not a limit to New Jersey candidates. NJ is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a New Jersey corporate office, and not a map of which campaigns received the $1,417,528.

The New Jersey campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NJ. This join is only CFO. The CFO occupation hub without New Jersey still holds about 96.1% of the $36,233,003. New Jersey’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to NJ. CFO is only this filter.

What the join is not

This page does not list public-company officers, merge spelled-out titles, or claim that CFO-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. CFO is not CONTROLLER even when filers meant a finance lead.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. CFO is not an SEC officer extract. Donor state NJ is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Employer CIK numbers are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one CFO filter

Subtract the New Jersey dollars on this page from the national CFO occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded CFO in every other state combined. That remainder ($34,815,475) 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 209 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 2,127 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $1,417,528 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New Jersey dollars, or only the CFO national total, drops a key. Two hundred nine donors producing 2,127 contributions is the fact to keep next to the $1,417,528 headline.
