Chief Executive donations in the 2012 FEC cycle

Chief Executive × 2012

CHIEF EXECUTIVE plus cycle 2012 equals $882,475. That figure is the harvested sum of itemized individual contributions in which the occupation field matched this string and the two-year federal election cycle was 2012. CEO, chief executive officer, president, and president and CEO are other keys if those words appear. This join does not recode the label into an Equilar CEO census, an SEC named-executive list, or a Fortune roster. Other cycle amounts are not fields in this packet.

Parent hubs: Chief Executive donations at /occupations/chief-executive/ and the 2012 election cycle at /election-cycles/2012/. All occupations lists neighboring titles. All FEC ties keeps each occupation-year cell on its own path so a reader can move without mixing $882,475 into another year or another string. Do not add those parent pages into this cell.

Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Chief Executive in 2012 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $882,475. Public versus private versus nonprofit chief executives is unpublished for Chief Executive in 2012. The occupation page and the 2012 cycle page are the next clicks for named committees.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE, not CEO or president

$13.8 million ($13,795,622) belongs to the exact string CHIEF EXECUTIVE across harvested cycles. It is not an Equilar CEO census, an SEC named-executive list, or a Fortune roster. People who wrote nearby wording — CEO, chief executive officer, president, and president and CEO — sit in other rows if the characters differ. The 2012 slice is 6.4% of that title bucket. Share of CHIEF EXECUTIVE is not share of all 2012 receipts.

Amended individual contribution reports can move $882,475. A later harvest of the same occupation string can move $13,795,622. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Live Chief Executive donations and the live 2012 election cycle pages are the tables; this prose is a packet snapshot. Itemized individual contributions are the only receipt class in this cell. Unitemized gifts below the itemization threshold, in-kind goods, and bundled contributions without this occupation string are outside $882,475.

45 chief-executive receipts — a sparse 2012 cell

21 donors and 45 receipts — about 2.1 lines per donor. Mean per receipt about $19,611; mean per donor about $42,023. Those ratios are arithmetic on two harvested integers. They are not medians, not typical gifts, and not a claim about income. 21 donors makes this a sparse occupation-cycle cell. No median is published in this packet.

Repeat gifts add receipts. 45 is a line count, not 21 one-time gifts; about two lines per donor, which is consistent with repeat gifts inside the same two-year window. Public versus private versus nonprofit chief executives is not encoded in the occupation string. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by CHIEF EXECUTIVE. People who left occupation blank, used a nearby spelling, or listed a more specific title are not in $882,475.

Sparse title versus C-suite PACs

Cite $882,475 as Chief Executive in 2012. Cite $13,795,622 as this title’s occupation total. Do not add the employer’s PAC and leadership PACs to either figure. Those filings are committee reports. Mixing PAC spending with $882,475 would blend FEC tables. All occupations lists neighboring titles so a searcher can open the other string’s cycle cell rather than rescale 6.4%.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. This join does not recode CHIEF EXECUTIVE into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a license class. If a researcher needs those crosswalks, they start from the raw string. Correlation is not causation: a presidential-year total does not prove the occupation’s motives, and it does not attach these gifts to any federal spending dataset.

How to cite chief-executive money in 2012

A clean footnote names occupation CHIEF EXECUTIVE, election cycle 2012, $882,475 in itemized individual contributions, 45 receipts, and 21 donors on FEC.gov. Keep the itemized word. Mean dollars remain about $19,611 per line and $42,023 per donor in the cell. If the live Chief Executive donations overlay has refreshed, quote the overlay. Do not treat 45 as unique workers in the trade.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Chief Executive donations rolls every cycle into one CHIEF EXECUTIVE running total. The 2012 election cycle rolls every occupation into one 2012 total. Only the Chief Executive × 2012 overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 45 receipts and $882,475. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-cycle cells.
