CPA political contributions from New Jersey

CPA and New Jersey as a credential-abbreviation join

Occupation CPA and donor state NJ produce $1,622,641, 5,901 contributions, and 476 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 (3.6%, 3.5%, 4.4%). New Jersey tracks the national CPA mix rather than concentrating one of the three measures. New Jersey CPA donor share sits slightly above the dollar share on fewer rows per donor.

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 $1,622,641 or $44,519,078. This New Jersey join is a different state filter from the Florida and Georgia CPA ties; do not add those state totals on this page.

476 New Jersey donors produced 5,901 contributions, about 12.4 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 New Jersey cell are about $3,409, 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 New Jersey 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. New Jersey’s 5,901 contributions from 476 donors is the NJ-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 New Jersey.

Four hundred seventy-six New Jersey CPA donors

476 New Jersey donors produced 5,901 contributions totaling $1,622,641. Donor state NJ is the address on the record, not proof of a New Jersey professional license, and not a limit to New Jersey candidates. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee.

The New Jersey campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NJ. This join is only CPA. Subtract $1,622,641 from $44,519,078 and $42,896,437 remains coded CPA in every other state combined (161,699 contributions, 10,290 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 New Jersey State Board of Accountancy 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 NJ 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 $1,622,641, 5,901 contributions, and 476 donors on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New Jersey dollars, or only the CPA national total, drops a key.

CPA donations holds the $44,519,078 national occupation total. New Jersey 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. This New Jersey join is a different state filter from the Florida and Georgia CPA ties; do not add those state totals on this page.
