CPA political contributions from Florida

CPA and Florida as a credential-abbreviation join

Occupation CPA and donor state FL produce $2,411,913, 9,930 contributions, and 661 donors. The occupation hub is $44,519,078, 167,600 contributions, and 10,766 donors. Dollar, contribution, and donor shares cluster within a few points (5.4%, 5.9%, 6.1%). Florida tracks the national CPA mix rather than concentrating one of the three measures. Florida CPA shares cluster in the mid-fives to low-sixes across dollars, rows, and donors.

CPA is a three-letter credential abbreviation as typed. Nearby strings — CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT, ACCOUNTANT, AUDITOR, and TAX PREPARER — sit in other occupation hubs when filers used those words. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $2,411,913 or $44,519,078. CPA and ACCOUNTANT can split the same people if they typed both strings across filings.

661 Florida donors produced 9,930 contributions, about 15.0 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 15.6 rows per donor nationally (167,600 contributions from 10,766 donors). Mean dollars per donor in this Florida cell are about $3,649, versus about $4,135 across the occupation. Those ratios are arithmetic on the six packet numbers, not a gift-size ranking of influence.

CPA as a stored abbreviation, not a spelled-out recode

CPA is filer-entered. The FEC file does not verify a Florida CPA license or an AICPA membership. The national grouping is 10,766 donors, 167,600 contributions, and $44,519,078.

167,600 contributions from 10,766 donors shows repeat itemization nationwide. Florida’s 9,930 contributions from 661 donors is the FL-coded piece. This page does not split those rows by cycle, employer, or recipient committee. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Florida.

Six hundred sixty-one Florida CPA donors

661 Florida donors produced 9,930 contributions totaling $2,411,913. Donor state FL is the address on the record, not proof of a Florida professional license, and not a limit to Florida candidates. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee.

The Florida campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to FL. This join is only CPA. Subtract $2,411,913 from $44,519,078 and $42,107,165 remains coded CPA in every other state combined (157,670 contributions, 10,105 donors). That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties.

This page does not measure cpa output, does not rank firms, and does not claim that CPA-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Not a Florida DBPR license extract, not an AICPA membership roll, and not a firm billings ranking.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Itemized individual contributions only. Firm names, license numbers, and employer strings are not in these six numbers. Donor state FL is not recipient geography.

Accounting titles that stay unmerged

A unique-donor count is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total can hide that skew. Keeping $2,411,913, 9,930 contributions, and 661 donors on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Florida dollars, or only the CPA national total, drops a key.

CPA donations holds the $44,519,078 national occupation total. Florida campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and all FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT, ACCOUNTANT, AUDITOR, is a different occupation string if a filer used it.

This relationship is not a forecast and not a ranking of influence. Occupation does not cause contributions, and donor state does not cause recipient geography. Public records, two fields, one intersection. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates; occupation labels are filer-entered. CPA and ACCOUNTANT can split the same people if they typed both strings across filings.
