Dentist political contributions from Hillsborough, CA

Contributor city HILLSBOROUGH and industry grouping DENTIST together show $21,000 in itemized individual contributions: 13 receipts from 3 donors. Hillsborough, CA's city-wide itemized total is $38,546,671 on 58,335 contributions. Those city-wide figures include every employer string, not only DENTIST. FEC.gov Schedule A aggregates are the source. Labels are filer-entered.

Key figures

  • $21,000 from 3 donors and 13 receipts is the Dentist × Hillsborough, CA join.
  • $38,546,671 is the all-industry Hillsborough, CA book; this string is under 0.1% of that book.
  • DENTIST is an exact filer-entered label, not a dental-sector roll-up.
  • Means near $1,615 per receipt and $7,000 per donor are arithmetic only.
  • If the live hub disagrees, the newer FEC extract controls.

Dentist and Hillsborough, CA as a two-key join

The headline $21,000 is not the Hillsborough, CA hub and not the Dentist hub. It is the rows where both stored values match: DENTIST on the employer/industry grouping and HILLSBOROUGH with state CA on the city field. LobbyVault publishes each side as its own table. This page exists because the two tables meet.

Thirteen contributions from 3 donors sum to $21,000. Three donors is the extract's headcount for the pair, not a licensing census of every dentist who lives in Hillsborough. Repeat gifts raise the receipt count above the donor count. Mean per receipt is about $1,615; mean per donor is $7,000. Those averages are packet quotients, not typical fees.

DENTIST is the exact stored occupation/employer grouping. Related strings such as dental, orthodontist, or a practice name are other keys unless the filer typed DENTIST. $21,000 does not silently absorb those variants. City labels are filer-entered; Hillsborough, CA is not merged with Hillsborough County, Florida or any other Hillsborough string.

Hillsborough, CA with every employer string still on

Without the DENTIST filter, Hillsborough, CA records $38,546,671 across 58,335 contributions. $21,000 is under 0.1% of that city book. Exact occupation matching usually leaves most city dollars on other labels. The packet does not publish a health-care NAICS roll-up. Do not treat $21,000 as Hillsborough's entire clinical economy.

Hillsborough is a California city field. California campaign finance is the state parent. Do not add $21,000 into the California hub as a new increment; the same tape already holds these lines when the extract is consistent. All FEC ties lists other city-industry pages. Those pages are siblings, not components of $21,000.

Dentist rows stored outside Hillsborough

The Dentist industry hub collects the same stored string in every city. $21,000 is only the Hillsborough, CA slice published here. A DENTIST line in another California city is a different join. A Hillsborough line with a different occupation string is a different join. Packet facts for this pair remain $21,000, 13 contributions, and 3 donors.

This packet does not split $21,000 by committee, party, or cycle. If those dimensions exist, they belong on the live Dentist page or the live Hillsborough, CA page. Keep both nouns in any citation so the join cannot be misread as a statewide dentist total.

What $21,000 does not measure in Hillsborough

Unitemized federal gifts, California state-office filings, and independent expenditures sit outside $21,000. The total is not a count of dental offices and not a measure of patient volume. PAC addresses that stored HILLSBOROUGH and DENTIST follow the same city-and-industry rule as household addresses.

Three donors and $21,000 do not show that dentists run Hillsborough politics. Correlation is not causation. The join is two filer-entered fields. If the live overlay later shows a different dollar total, receipt count, or donor count, the newer FEC extract controls.

Links for Hillsborough, CA and Dentist without mixing ledgers

Internal links are Hillsborough, CA, Dentist, California campaign finance, and All FEC ties. Use every href. FEC individual contributions are not USAspending obligations. This packet has no award dollars. Do not add $21,000 to federal spending in California because both series can mention the same city name.

Keep both sides in the sentence: Dentist and Hillsborough, CA. $21,000 is a subset of $38,546,671, not a second city book. 58,335 is the unfiltered city line count. The join's line count is 13. Do not add 13 to 58,335.

Questions

How much did dentist donors in Hillsborough, CA give?
Itemized FEC individual contributions storing DENTIST and city HILLSBOROUGH total $21,000 across 13 receipts from 3 donors in this extract. That is the join, not Hillsborough, CA's $38,546,671 all-industry book. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.
Does the Dentist grouping include every dental practice name in Hillsborough?
No. Only the exact stored string DENTIST is inside $21,000. Practice names and related clinical titles are other keys. Three donors and 13 receipts follow that exact-match rule. LobbyVault does not map the field to a license roster.
What share of Hillsborough, CA itemized money is Dentist?
$21,000 is under 0.1% of the $38,546,671 Hillsborough, CA city book (58,335 contributions). A thin share usually means other employer strings dominate the city tape. Quote both dollars. Do not upgrade under 0.1% into a sector ranking.
Do dentist donations in Hillsborough fund federal awards in California?
No. These figures are FEC individual contributions, not USAspending awards. $21,000 does not become a contract. This packet has no obligation dollars. Different statutes, different forms. Filings remain on FEC.gov.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by donor city and employer/industry grouping. City labels are filer-entered.
