Comcast Corporation and the 2010 FEC election cycle

Comcast Corporation crossed with 2010

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Comcast Corporation and 2010 — sum to $305,863. 244 itemized contributions and 90 unique donors produced it. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables. COMCAST CORPORATION is grouped employer text, including CORPORATION as stored. The 2010 filter keeps receipts in that cycle whose employer field collapsed to this key. It does not merge shorter COMCAST keys or entertainment subsidiaries.

Neither the Comcast Corporation hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. The Comcast Corporation hub is the year index for this string. COMCAST, COMCAST CABLE, and NBC UNIVERSAL stay on their own keys if filers used them. Federal telecom awards on USAspending are a different file and are not funded by these itemized gifts.

7.9% of the Comcast Corporation roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $3.9 million ($3,868,762). The 2010 slice of $305,863 is about 7.9% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 92.1%. Treating 2010 as the Comcast Corporation FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $3,868,762 as the denominator for the 7.9% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2010 from being folded silently into $3,868,762.

244 contributions from 90 donors

Dividing $305,863 by 244 contributions yields about $1,254 per itemized gift. Dividing by 90 donors yields about $3,398 per donor. Contributions per donor average about 2.7. Those means describe the arithmetic on the packet. They are not medians and not a party split.

90 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 Comcast Corporation 2010 holds the rows.

2010 as the cycle dimension

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

Gifts from both years of the two-year FEC window sit in the $305,863 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 244 contributions, the 90 unique donors, and the 7.9% share of $3,868,762.

Limits of the Comcast Corporation × 2010 join

Itemized individual receipts are the universe. Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and PAC disbursements sit outside $305,863. 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 not a cable NAICS total and not a Comcast PAC.

Correlation between an employer or occupation string and a cycle year is not causation. The records show a text match, a date window, 90 donors, and 244 contributions. COMCAST, COMCAST CABLE, NBC UNIVERSAL, and generic CABLE occupation strings are other keys if stored separately. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages.

Citing Comcast Corporation and 2010 together

Start with $305,863, then Comcast Corporation 2010 for rows, then the industry hub or the 2010 election cycle if a filter needs to come off. Citation template: Comcast Corporation, 2010, $305,863, 244 contributions, 90 donors, 7.9% of $3,868,762, source FEC.gov. Keep neighboring spellings and occupation titles out of the total unless they grouped to this exact string.

The 7.9% share, the 90-donor count, and the $1,254 mean gift belong to this intersection. Carry them onto a successor label or a sibling occupation word and they stop being facts from this packet. This prose is a packet snapshot. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov and the live overlay control.

Questions

How much did Comcast Corporation donors give in 2010?

FEC.gov aggregates show $305,863 in itemized individual contributions for the Comcast Corporation grouping in the 2010 cycle, across 244 contributions and 90 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $3,868,762 all-cycle figure. Filings remain on FEC.gov.

What share of Comcast Corporation FEC money is 2010?

The grouping’s all-cycle total is $3,868,762. The 2010 cell of $305,863 is about 7.9% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 92.1% on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the Comcast Corporation hub holds other cycles; the 2010 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.

Is this Comcast Corporation’s PAC or an official account?

No. $305,863 is itemized individual receipts whose employer or occupation text grouped to Comcast Corporation. Committee PAC filings and official organization accounts sit outside this rollup unless an individual receipt itself carries the string. The key is not a cable NAICS total and not a Comcast PAC.

Where is the overlay for the Comcast Corporation 2010 join?

Open Comcast Corporation 2010 for the cycle overlay, Comcast Corporation for the grouping hub, and the 2010 election cycle for the year without this employer filter.
