Keeping PROVIDENCE separate from nearby strings

Filer-entered labels, exact match

Providence × Dimeo Construction Co: dollars versus rows

Dollars and rows can move in different directions in other joins; here they are simply $10,000 and 1 for the grouping, $39,517,814 and 116868 for the city. under 0.1% uses dollars. A receipt share would use 1 and 116868 as a raw ratio of packet counts, still not unique people.

A single harvested donor produced the grouping file in Providence. Repeat itemizations explain why receipts (1) and donors (1) can differ. Both numbers are in the packet; both should be quoted.

File-structure reading: receipts (1) count itemized lines; donors (1) count harvested unique donors in this extract; city contributions (116868) count every itemized line that stored PROVIDENCE. Mixing those denominators produces a false typical gift. Use $10,000 only with the receipt denominator and $10,000 only with the donor denominator. A single harvested donor is still not a named roster. Providence is stored as PROVIDENCE in Rhode Island; Cranston, Warwick, and Pawtucket remain separate keys. Rhode Island campaign finance mixes other cities; this URL does not. Independent expenditures remain another FEC file.

Questions

Where do Dimeo Construction Co and Providence, RI overlap in FEC data?
On itemized individual contribution rows that stored both DIMEO CONSTRUCTION CO and PROVIDENCE. Those rows sum to $10,000 across 1 receipt from 1 donor. The city hub without the industry filter remains $39,517,814 on 116868 lines. Original filings are on FEC.gov. Labels are filer-entered.
Why is the Dimeo Construction Co share of Providence only under 0.1%?
Because the key is an exact string. Most of the $39,517,814 Providence book used other employer labels (100.0%). under 0.1% is a table identity, not proof the trade is absent. Do not recode DIMEO CONSTRUCTION CO into a sector and then treat under 0.1% as that sector's weight.
Does this page name the Dimeo Construction Co donors in Providence?
No. The packet publishes 1 donor as a harvested count, not a roster. This prose does not invent names, committees, parties, or cycles. $10,000 on 1 receipt is the numeric join. Live hubs control if a later FEC extract revises the count.
Are Providence Dimeo Construction Co gifts the same as local candidate spending?
No. Donor city PROVIDENCE is an address field. Recipients can be committees anywhere in the FEC system. $10,000 is not spending by Providence candidates and is not a Rhode Island office filing total. Independent expenditures are another FEC table and are omitted here.
