Citigroup and the 2010 FEC election cycle

CITIGROUP meeting cycle 2010

$213,634 is not the Citigroup hub and is not the 2010 cycle hub. It is the overlap. FEC.gov counts 246 itemized individual contributions and 117 donors inside that overlap. Committee-to-committee transfers and independent expenditures are not in the sum.

The grouping label is the string CITIGROUP as committees stored it. Citigroup is bank holding-company employer text. CITI, CITIBANK, and CITIGROUP INC are other keys. Researchers who want a combined family of neighboring labels must recode after export.

Lifetime for CITIGROUP is $5,622,076. 2010 accounts for about 3.8% of that running sum. The rest, $5,408,442, belongs to other cycles on the industry hub. 2010 is a midterm even-year window; that fact describes the FEC calendar, not which contests received the money.

3.8% is not a ranking

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $5,622,076. The 2010 slice of $213,634 is about 3.8% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 96.2% ($5,408,442). Treating 2010 as the entire Citigroup FEC story would ignore that remainder. The industry hub is the year index for this string.

Treat $5,622,076 as the denominator for the 3.8% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. This tie keeps 2010 from being folded silently into $5,622,076. Neighboring spellings are not added into either figure.

117 donors, 246 itemized gifts

Dividing $213,634 by 246 contributions yields about $868 per itemized gift. Dividing by 117 donors yields about $1,826 per donor. Contributions per donor average about 2.1. Those means describe the arithmetic on the packet. They are not medians, not a party split, and not a typical-gift claim.

117 unique donors are contributor identities, not a headcount of employees, licensees, or members. Retirees and household members who reuse a workplace or title can appear. Repeat gifts raise the contribution count faster than the donor count. The overlay for Citigroup 2010 holds the rows.

Cycle tag versus Citigroup string

The 2010 election cycle hub includes every stored employer and occupation for that window. Citigroup is one cell in that matrix. This packet does not publish a cycle-wide denominator, so no national share is stated. Open 2010 election cycle to drop the employer filter and Citigroup to drop the year.

Gifts from both years of the two-year FEC window sit in the $213,634 cell because the cycle is a two-year tag, not a single Tuesday. That mechanical fact is easy to forget when a searcher wants an election-night number. The overlay is where dates become visible. This join publishes the cycle total, the 246 contributions, the 117 unique donors, and the 3.8% share of $5,622,076.

Caveats for CITIGROUP in 2010

Itemized individual receipts are the universe. Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and PAC disbursements sit outside $213,634. Federal awards in other databases are different datasets. Sharing an employer string and a calendar year does not turn these gifts into contracts or grants. The page is bank holding-company employer text, not a Citigroup PAC, not CITI as a four-letter spelling, and not a TARP or USAspending figure.

Correlation between an employer string and a cycle year is not causation. The records show a text match, a date window, 117 donors, and 246 contributions. CITI, CITIBANK, and CITIGROUP INC are other keys. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. Live hubs override this snapshot. If the overlay disagrees, the overlay and FEC.gov control.

Keep $213,634 attached to both sides

Start with $213,634, then Citigroup 2010 for rows, then Citigroup or 2010 election cycle if a filter needs to come off. Citation template: CITIGROUP, 2010, $213,634, 246 contributions, 117 donors, 3.8% of $5,622,076, source FEC.gov. Keep neighboring spellings and occupation titles out of the total unless they grouped to this exact string.

The 3.8% share, the 117-donor count, and the $868 mean gift belong to this intersection. Carry them onto a successor label or a sibling employer word and they stop being facts from this packet. This prose is a packet snapshot. 246 itemized contributions totaling $213,634 average about $868 per line. Unitemized gifts never appear. Campaign contributions are not federal awards.

FEC.gov aggregates show $213,634 in itemized individual contributions for the Citigroup grouping in the 2010 cycle, across 246 contributions and 117 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $5,622,076 all-cycle figure. Independent expenditures are not included.

What share of Citigroup FEC money is 2010?

The grouping’s all-cycle total is $5,622,076. The 2010 cell of $213,634 is about 3.8% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 96.2% ($5,408,442) on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell.
