Computer Programmer occupation money in the 2012 cycle
Filers who listed Computer Programmer itemized $648,817 in FEC individual contributions in the 2012 presidential cycle — 1,098 receipts from 381 donors. SOFTWARE ENGINEER, PROGRAMMER, and SOFTWARE DEVELOPER are neighboring strings, not this cell. The occupation string COMPUTER PROGRAMMER sums to $10,364,545 across harvested cycles; this 2012 cell is 6.3% of that sum. FEC.gov stores the occupation as typed.
Key figures
- $648,817 joins the Computer Programmer occupation string to the 2012 FEC cycle.
- 1,098 contributions from 381 donors produced that cell.
- 2012 is about 6.3% of the occupation’s $10,364,545 lifetime total.
- COMPUTER PROGRAMMER is a filer-entered title (a software occupation string, not a NAICS programming rollup).
- FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.
Computer Programmer × 2012
COMPUTER PROGRAMMER plus cycle 2012 equals $648,817. 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. SOFTWARE ENGINEER, PROGRAMMER, and SOFTWARE DEVELOPER are other keys if those words appear. This join does not recode the label into a license list or a firm letterhead census.
Parent hubs: Computer Programmer donations and the 2012 election cycle. All occupations lists neighboring titles. All FEC ties keeps each occupation-year cell on its own path so a reader can move without mixing $648,817 into another year or another string.
Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Computer Programmer in 2012 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $648,817. The occupation page and the 2012 cycle page are the next clicks for named committees.
What Computer Programmer does not mean
Computer Programmer is a software occupation string, not a NAICS programming rollup. A programmers pac, software engineer as a neighboring key, or a named-employer page. The FEC does not verify that the title matches a license or payroll.
2012 holds $648,817 of $10,364,545 — about 6.3%. A cycle cell at 6.3% is a chapter, not the occupation’s full FEC history. Combining SOFTWARE ENGINEER, PROGRAMMER, and SOFTWARE DEVELOPER without naming each source total mixes keys. The 6.3% ratio is $648,817 divided by $10,364,545. Other even-year joins for COMPUTER PROGRAMMER are not listed in this packet; they collectively hold $9,715,728. Citing 2012 as if it were the Computer Programmer lifetime total would overstate this cell by $9,715,728.
Volume: 1,098 lines, 381 identities
1,098 itemized contributions and 381 unique donors sit behind $648,817. Average gift size is about $591; average dollars per donor about $1,703; lines per donor about 2.9. Averages hide skew.
Unique donors are FEC contributor keys for this string and cycle. They are not staff headcount for Computer Programmer. This packet does not publish names. Open the occupation and cycle hubs for related tables; do not invent names here. A mean of $591 per itemized line and $1,703 per donor can hide a few large receipts. The packet supplies no median. 1,098 contributions remaining larger than 381 donors is the expected pattern when identities give more than once.
2012 as a slice of $10,364,545
$10,364,545 is the all-cycle total stored for COMPUTER PROGRAMMER. Subtract $648,817 and $9,715,728 remains in other cycles (93.7%). 2012 therefore accounts for about 6.3% of the grouping. That percentage is arithmetic on two packet facts, not a ranking against other occupations.
Do not read 6.3% as intensity or a planned 2012 campaign. It is $648,817 divided by $10,364,545. The occupation hub is where the other windows live. FEC cycle 2012 tags a two-year window. Odd-year receipts inside that window are in $648,817 if they were itemized against COMPUTER PROGRAMMER. This file does not publish a year-by-year split because the facts do not.
The two-year 2012 window
FEC election cycles are two-year spans. 2012 covers that even-year window, so receipts from the odd year before the election can sit in $648,817. This packet does not split those years.
The 2012 hub is the place to see every other occupation string that year. This page keeps the Computer Programmer filter on. Without a cycle-wide total in the facts, no percentage of national 2012 giving is claimed. Computer Programmer as a software occupation string, not a NAICS programming rollup can appear in licensing or contracting databases under similar names. Those tables are not this $648,817. The join does not claim a payment trail from campaign gifts to federal awards.
How to quote $648,817
A complete quote names both sides: Computer Programmer and 2012, $648,817, 1,098 itemized contributions, 381 unique donors, FEC.gov. Add 6.3% of $10,364,545 if the lifetime context matters. Omit any number that is not in those facts.
The occupation hub is for other years. The 2012 election cycle is for other strings. All occupations and All FEC ties complete the packet hrefs. Quote both keys: Computer Programmer and 2012. Quote the dollars: $648,817. Quote the volume: 1,098 contributions, 381 donors. Quote the source: FEC.gov. Leave NAICS codes and named donors out unless a later overlay supplies them.
