Developer political contributions from California

Developer and California without a specialty split

Occupation DEVELOPER and donor state CA together sum to $11,379,871, 5,346 contributions, and 447 donors. The occupation hub is $33,583,908, 36,924 contributions, and 3,717 donors. California’s share of dollars is 33.9%; of contributions, 14.5% (5,346 of 36,924); of donors, 12.0% (447 of 3,717).

447 California donors produced 5,346 contributions totaling $11,379,871. That is 33.9% of the $33,583,908 Developer occupation total. The leftover $22,204,037 is Developer-coded money from every other state combined on this extract.

California holds 33.9% of Developer-coded dollars ($11,379,871 of $33,583,908) from 447 of 3,717 donors. Do not treat that share as a housing-market score or a tech-employment score. The file stores one occupation word and a state code. The remainder $22,204,037 is DEVELOPER in every other state.

DEVELOPER as an ambiguous occupation word

DEVELOPER is an ambiguous one-word title. SOFTWARE DEVELOPER, REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER, and WEB DEVELOPER are longer strings if filers used them; those rows sit in other hubs. The $33,583,908 national total is the bare word DEVELOPER only.

Three thousand seven hundred seventeen donors produced 36,924 contributions totaling $33,583,908. California’s 447 donors are 12.0% of that count and 33.9% of dollars. This page does not assign those California dollars to housing projects or to code repositories.

Four hundred forty-seven California Developer donors

447 California donors produced 5,346 contributions totaling $11,379,871. Donor state CA is the address on the contribution record, not proof of a California workplace, and not a limit to California candidates.

The California campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to CA. This join is only DEVELOPER. SOFTWARE DEVELOPER, REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER, and WEB DEVELOPER are other occupation strings if filers used them; they are not this page even when they share the CA state code.

Developer donations without California still holds the remainder of the $33,583,908 occupation total. A California directory of workplaces would need employment data this FEC join does not contain.

A third of occupation dollars on an ambiguous title

This page does not measure a housing-starts series or a software-headcount survey, and it does not claim that Developer-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation.

DEVELOPER fragments against SOFTWARE DEVELOPER, REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER, and WEB DEVELOPER. Those strings, if used, never enter the $33,583,908 or the $11,379,871. Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. The join does not allocate the California dollars by recipient office or by in-state versus out-of-state committees.

Software versus real-estate readings the file will not settle

Subtract the California dollars on this page from the national Developer occupation total and the difference is $22,204,037 still coded Developer in every other state combined. That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. Developer donations holds the unlabeled-by-state total; California campaign finance holds every occupation with this state code; all occupations and all FEC ties place this pair among other joins built the same way.

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 all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the California dollars, or only the Developer national total, drops a key.

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.

Hubs for Developer and California

Developer donations holds the $33,583,908 national occupation total and the 3,717-donor count. California campaign finance holds all itemized individual activity coded to CA. All occupations and all FEC ties place this pair among other occupation-state intersections.

Are these software developers or real-estate developers?

The FEC occupation field is the string DEVELOPER. It does not split software from real estate. California’s 447 donors and $11,379,871 sit in that undifferentiated bucket. Longer strings such as SOFTWARE DEVELOPER or REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER, if used, are other hubs. FEC.gov labels are filer-entered.

Is this money for California races only?

No. Donor state is California. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee. This page does not allocate the $11,379,871 by office or by in-state versus out-of-state campaigns. The 5,346 contributions and 447 donors are the DEVELOPER-and-CA overlap only. FEC.gov is the source.
