Dentist political contributions from North Carolina

Dentist and North Carolina as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation DENTIST and donor state NC produce $1,518,064, 3,754 contributions, and 402 donors. The occupation hub is $36,685,531, 143,346 contributions, and 10,521 donors. North Carolina’s dollar share is about 4.1%; contribution share about 2.6% (3,754 of 143,346); donor share about 3.8% (402 of 10,521). Four hundred two North Carolina donors are about 3.8% of 10,521 national donors; 3,754 contributions are about 2.6% of 143,346 national rows; dollars are about 4.1% of $36,685,531.

DDS, DMD, and ORTHODONTIST, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Dentist total. Do not stack DENTIST with DDS or ORTHODONTIST into a single North Carolina professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

402 North Carolina donors produced 3,754 contributions, about 9.3 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 13.6 rows per donor nationally (143,346 contributions from 10,521 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this North Carolina cell is about $404, against about $256 nationwide. North Carolina’s about 4.1% dollar share from 3,754 rows is a larger-mean slice than Florida’s 6,951-row Dentist cell of the same occupation.

DENTIST as a North Carolina clinical string

DENTIST is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a North Carolina dental license, a specialty, or a practice setting. The $36,685,531 national total is DENTIST only. 10,521 donors produced 143,346 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 143,346 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to North Carolina (NC). One hundred forty-three thousand three hundred forty-six national contributions make DENTIST a high-frequency bucket. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state NC.

North Carolina as the donor-state code

402 North Carolina donors produced 3,754 contributions totaling $1,518,064. Donor state NC is the address on the record, not proof of a North Carolina license, and not a limit to North Carolina candidates. NC is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a North Carolina license, and not a map of which campaigns received the $1,518,064.

The North Carolina campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NC. This join is only DENTIST. The Dentist occupation hub without North Carolina still holds about 95.9% of the $36,685,531. North Carolina’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to NC. DENTIST is only this filter.

What the Dentist–North Carolina join is not

This page does not count licensed dentists, add Florida Dentist dollars, or claim that Dentist-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. DENTIST is not DDS even when filers meant the same degree. This cell is not the Florida or Georgia Dentist pair.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. DENTIST is not a licensing-board extract. Donor state NC is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. License numbers are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one North Carolina Dentist filter

Subtract the North Carolina dollars on this page from the national DENTIST occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded DENTIST in every other state combined. That remainder ($35,167,467) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count of 402 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 3,754 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $1,518,064 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the North Carolina dollars, or only the DENTIST national total, drops a key. Four hundred two donors producing 3,754 contributions is the fact to keep next to the $1,518,064 headline.

Related tables

Dentist donations holds the $36,685,531 national occupation total. North Carolina 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. Florida and Georgia have separate Dentist occupation-state ties in this same slice; those cells are other pairs.
