Designer and New York as overlapping FEC fields
Occupation DESIGNER and donor state NY produce $4,194,143, 18,533 contributions, and 708 donors. The occupation hub is $18,568,646, 112,150 contributions, and 3,473 donors. The three shares are 22.6% of dollars, 16.5% of contributions, and 20.4% of donors. Keep all three; quoting only $4,194,143 drops the row and donor keys. New York Designer dollars sit near one-fifth of a high-row creative title.
Designer is a short creative title, not a discipline recode. Nearby strings — GRAPHIC DESIGNER, FASHION DESIGNER, INTERIOR DESIGNER, and UX DESIGNER — sit in other occupation hubs when filers used those words. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $4,194,143 or $18,568,646. This New York join is a different state filter from the California Designer tie; do not add the two state totals on this page.
Seven hundred eight New York donors produced 18,533 contributions, about 26.2 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 32.3 rows per donor nationally (112,150 contributions from 3,473 donors). Mean dollars per donor in this New York cell are about $5,924, versus about $5,347 across the occupation. Those ratios are arithmetic on the six packet numbers, not a gift-size ranking of influence.
Designer as a national occupation grouping
DESIGNER is filer-entered. The FEC file does not verify a specialty, a union card, or a studio appointment. The national grouping is 3,473 donors, 112,150 contributions, and $18,568,646.
112,150 contributions from 3,473 donors shows repeat itemization nationwide. New York’s 18,533 contributions from 708 donors is the NY-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 York.
New York on the state side
Seven hundred eight New York donors produced 18,533 contributions totaling $4,194,143. Donor state NY is the address on the record, not proof of a New York professional license, and not a limit to New York candidates. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee.
The New York campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NY. This join is only DESIGNER. Subtract $4,194,143 from $18,568,646 and $14,374,503 remains coded Designer in every other state combined (93,617 contributions, 2,765 donors). That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties.
What the Designer–New York join is not
This page does not measure designer output, does not rank firms, and does not claim that Designer-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Not a fashion-week census, not an AIGA roll, and not a studio headcount.
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 NY is not recipient geography.
Three numbers, two fields, one Designer filter
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 $4,194,143, 18,533 contributions, and 708 donors on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New York dollars, or only the Designer national total, drops a key.
Designer donations holds the $18,568,646 national occupation total. New York 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. Nearby occupation strings remain separate keys.
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 York join is a different state filter from the California Designer tie; do not add the two state totals on this page.
