Counselor political contributions from Oregon

Counselor as occupation, Oregon as the state

Two FEC fields define the cell: occupation COUNSELOR and donor state OR. Matching rows sum to $172,535, 1,980 contributions, and 36 donors. COUNSELOR is the occupation string. School counselor versus mental-health counselor versus legal counselor is unpublished. Therapist is a different key. The occupation hub is $5,001,105 across 48,327 contributions and 1,013 donors. The Oregon state hub mixes every other occupation that used that state code. Neither hub restates this intersection; this tie page exists because the two dimensions meet.

Oregon’s dollar share is 3.4% ($172,535 of $5,001,105). Contribution share is 4.1% (1,980 of 48,327). Donor share is 3.6% (36 of 1,013). The remainder, $4,828,570, sits in other states on the occupation hub. Correlation between a job title and a mailing-state code is a reporting overlap, not causation of an election outcome. Itemized individual receipts are the coverage. Unitemized money never appears in $172,535.

The Counselor string across every state on file

$5,001,105 is the occupation-side denominator from 48,327 contributions and 1,013 donors. It is not limited to Oregon. Therapist, Social Worker, Guidance Counselor, and Attorney Counselor are other occupation keys if stored separately. Adding those keys to $5,001,105 would be a researcher-built recode, not this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered on itemized individual receipts.

The occupation hub still answers questions this page refuses: every state under COUNSELOR, not only Oregon. This file stays on the overlap. $4,828,570 remains on the hub as the complement of $172,535. COUNSELOR is the occupation string. School counselor versus mental-health counselor versus legal counselor is unpublished. Therapist is a different key. Do not fold those sibling strings into $5,001,105 and then cite the sum as this join.

36 Oregon donors and the gift math

Dividing $172,535 by 1,980 contributions yields about $87 per gift. Dividing by 36 donors yields about $4,793 per donor. Gifts per donor average about 55.0 (1,980 ÷ 36). Nationally, 48,327 contributions from 1,013 donors average about $103 per gift and 47.7 gifts per donor. Those ratios describe this string in Oregon, not payroll.

36 is a donor-key count inside the occupation × state aggregate, not a headcount of everyone who held the job in Oregon. Repeat itemization, couples filing separately, and people who used the string on some receipts but not others all move the 36 figure. The Oregon hub still holds every other occupation’s OR receipts beside this cell.

What 3.4% of Counselor-coded dollars is not

A 3.4% share of Counselor-coded dollars from Oregon does not mean the occupation caused those gifts, and it does not mean people with that title funded a policy outcome. Occupation and donor state are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Independent expenditures, committee-to-committee transfers, and unitemized gifts are out of scope.

Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger. This join does not claim that Oregon donations funded contracts or grants. Quote $172,535 as itemized individual receipts tagged COUNSELOR and OR, source FEC.gov, and stop there.

How to cite Counselor × Oregon

A complete claim names Counselor and Oregon, then $172,535, 1,980 contributions, 36 donors, and 3.4% of $5,001,105, source FEC.gov. Do not convert 36 keys into licensed or employed practitioners. Do not fold independent expenditures or USAspending awards into the cell. Keep both sides of the name—Counselor and Oregon—whenever the dollars are quoted. Mean gift $87 and mean per donor $4,793 travel with those counts; they do not travel with a licensing board.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Counselor donations rolls every state into one COUNSELOR running total. Oregon campaign finance rolls every occupation into one OR total. Only the Counselor × Oregon overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 1,980 receipts and $172,535. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-state cells.

Occupation hub, Oregon hub, and sibling keys

The occupation hub still holds $4,828,570 outside Oregon. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the state, not either hub restated. Therapist, Social Worker, Guidance Counselor, and Attorney Counselor are other occupation keys if stored separately. Those titles are not parents of COUNSELOR on this page. Gifts per donor in Oregon average about 55.0. That ratio is 1,980 divided by 36, not a measure of turnout.

A clean footnote names occupation COUNSELOR, donor state Oregon (OR), $172,535 in itemized individual contributions, 1,980 receipts, and 36 donors on FEC.gov. Keep the itemized word. Mean dollars remain about $87 per line and $4,793 per donor in the cell. If the live Counselor donations overlay has refreshed, quote the overlay. Do not treat 1,980 as unique workers in the trade.

No. The 36 donor keys are people whose itemized receipts grouped to COUNSELOR and state OR. Filers who used a different title are other occupation rows. FEC.gov does not verify jobs. The cell totals $172,535 on 1,980 lines. Unitemized gifts never appear in this aggregate.

What share of Counselor occupation money is from Oregon?

Does this money go to Oregon candidates?

Not necessarily. Donor state is Oregon (OR). Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee. This page does not allocate the $172,535 by office or by in-state versus out-of-state campaigns. Open Oregon campaign finance for every occupation coded to OR. Source: FEC.gov.
