CFO and New York as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation CFO and donor state NY produce $2,963,151, 4,649 contributions, and 404 donors. The occupation hub is $36,233,003, 78,219 contributions, and 6,214 donors. New York’s dollar share is about 8.2%; contribution share about 5.9% (4,649 of 78,219); donor share about 6.5% (404 of 6,214). Four hundred four New York donors are about 6.5% of 6,214 national donors; 4,649 contributions are about 5.9% of 78,219 national rows; dollars are about 8.2% of $36,233,003.

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

404 New York donors produced 4,649 contributions, about 11.5 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 York cell is about $637, against about $463 nationwide. New York’s about 8.2% dollar share runs ahead of its about 6.5% donor share — a higher-mean slice of the national CFO bucket.

CFO as an abbreviated officer title

CFO is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a corporate office, a CPA, or a New York employer. Three letters on the form are the filter. 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 York (NY). Six thousand two hundred fourteen national donors make CFO a many-person occupation. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state NY.

New York as donor state

404 New York donors produced 4,649 contributions totaling $2,963,151. Donor state NY is the address on the record, not proof of a New York license, and not a limit to New York candidates. NY is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a New York corporation, and not a map of which campaigns received the $2,963,151.

The New York campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NY. This join is only CFO. The CFO occupation hub without New York still holds about 91.8% of the $36,233,003. New York’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to NY. CFO is only this filter.

What the join is not

This page does not merge spelled-out chief financial officer dollars, list officers, or claim that CFO-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. CFO is not CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER even when filers meant the same job. Senior Vice President in New York is a different occupation-state pair.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. CFO is not a corporate-officer registry. Donor state NY is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Employer names are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one CFO filter

Subtract the New York 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 ($33,269,852) 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 404 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 4,649 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $2,963,151 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New York dollars, or only the CFO national total, drops a key. Four hundred four donors producing 4,649 contributions totaling $2,963,151 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.
