Designer occupation text meeting ActBlue as a conduit
DESIGNER is a short occupation string covering graphic, product, interior, and other design titles. ACTBLUE is committee C00401224. Architect is a sibling ActBlue join, not a parent of Designer. Matching rows sum to $4,071,266 across 99,391 contributions. The occupation hub is $18,568,646 to every committee in the aggregate. The committee overlay includes every occupation, not only Designer. This tie page exists because those two dimensions meet; it is not a restatement of either hub.
About 99,000 itemized lines at a two-digit mean, with more than a fifth of the occupation book on this conduit. Architect’s ActBlue cell is a different occupation key. The join key is the occupation string plus committee ID C00401224. It is not a finding that a trade association, employer, or candidate bundled the gifts. Filers listed DESIGNER; the receipts are attributed to C00401224 in this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov does not audit job titles against licenses or payroll.
Graphic Designer, Interior Designer, and Architect are other keys if stored separately. Designer holds the occupation-wide $18,568,646. ACTBLUE holds committee C00401224. All occupations and All FEC ties keep the pair in the index. Graphic Designer and Interior Designer, if stored, are other keys. Architect-coded ActBlue dollars sit on another page in this slice.
More than a fifth of the Designer grouping
The Designer occupation grouping shows $18,568,646 in itemized individual money. The ActBlue cell is $4,071,266, or 21.9% of that total. The remaining $14,497,380 (78.1%) went to committees other than C00401224. Opening only this tie would hide that remainder.
Designer keeps the $18,568,646 grouping and its other recipients. ACTBLUE keeps C00401224 volume from every occupation. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling occupation–committee cells so this join is not mistaken for a portfolio census, an AIA roster, or a studio PAC.
A high-count ActBlue cell under Designer
ACTBLUE received $4,071,266 from Designer-coded receipts across 99,391 contributions. Dividing dollars by gifts gives about $41 per contribution. 99,391 lines are not 99,391 unique people. Repeat givers, multiple earmarks, and cycle stacking raise the contribution count. The packet does not publish a unique-donor figure for this cell.
The source note is explicit: these figures are FEC.gov aggregates of itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee, not independent expenditures. Committee-to-committee transfers and unitemized gifts are outside the $4,071,266 total. Graphic Designer and Interior Designer, if stored, are other keys. Architect-coded ActBlue dollars sit on another page in this slice.
Designer is not Architect and not a studio census
A 21.9% share of Designer-coded dollars into C00401224 does not mean the occupation caused an election outcome, and it does not mean ActBlue is the occupation’s only political destination. A catch-all design title is not a creative-industry ranking. Do not stack Designer, Artist, and Architect. Each string is its own join. Occupation and committee are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards.
Quote $4,071,266 as 21.9% of $18,568,646 into C00401224, with 99,391 itemized lines, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Do not add sibling occupation keys. Do not fold independent expenditures into the cell. Do not treat 99,391 contributions as a headcount of people currently holding the job. Graphic Designer, Interior Designer, and Architect are other keys if stored separately.
How to cite Designer × C00401224
A complete claim names Designer and ACTBLUE (C00401224), then $4,071,266, 99,391 contributions, and 21.9% of $18,568,646, source FEC.gov. Keep both sides of the name whenever the dollars are quoted. The occupation hub still holds $14,497,380 outside this committee. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the committee, not either hub restated.
Mean gift $41 is $4,071,266 divided by 99,391 lines. It is not a typical check and not a contribution limit. Later FEC bulk files override this snapshot. Do not add $4,071,266 to $18,568,646. All occupations ranks sibling titles. All FEC ties lists other occupation–committee pages.
