Director occupation money in the 2010 FEC cycle

$3,822,983 in itemized individual contributions is the 2010-cycle join for occupation Director. FEC.gov aggregates count 5,537 contributions from 2,848 donors. The same string totals $88,429,618 across every cycle in this table, so 2010 holds about 4.3% of the occupation bucket. The word on the form is a self-reported occupation, not a corporate-director census or a film-credit list. This page joins that string to cycle 2010.

Key figures

  • $3,822,983 joins the Director occupation string to the 2010 FEC cycle.
  • 5,537 contributions from 2,848 donors produced that cell.
  • 2010 is about 4.3% of the occupation’s $88,429,618 lifetime total.
  • DIRECTOR is a filer-entered title, not a corporate-director census or a film-credit list.

Director as occupation, 2010 as cycle

Two keys define this page. One is the occupation string DIRECTOR. The other is the 2010 federal election cycle. The match is $3,822,983, built from 5,537 contributions and 2,848 unique donors. Drop either key and the number changes. Five thousand-plus midterm gifts against an $88 million occupation stack is a small-share chapter. High contribution count with a modest mean is the signature of a common title in a two-year window.

Average contribution is about $690; average per donor is about $1,342. Those means are arithmetic on the 2010 cell only. The packet has no median, no party split, and no employer table. About 1.9 itemized rows per donor is a filing ratio, not a headcount of unique humans behind every spelling variant.

DIRECTOR is not MANAGING DIRECTOR

DIRECTOR is a short status word. It can mean a nonprofit board, a corporate department, a film credit, or a school title. MANAGING DIRECTOR is a longer string with its own 2010 cell in this slice. The FEC does not split those uses here.

$88,429,618 is every cycle combined for DIRECTOR. $3,822,983 in 2010 is about 4.3% of that stack. Other windows hold about 95.7% ($84,606,635). A cycle cell at 4.3% is a chapter, not the occupation’s full FEC history. MANAGING DIRECTOR, BOARD DIRECTOR, and ART DIRECTOR are other occupation pages if stored separately. Combining them without naming each source total mixes keys.

2,848 donors and 5,537 gifts in 2010

2,848 unique donors against 5,537 contributions implies some repeat giving inside the 2010 window. Primaries, generals, and multiple committees all add rows. One person can appear more than once if addresses or names vary. Unitemized gifts never carry an occupation code, so they never enter $3,822,983.

A title on a form is not an employment verification. People using a household occupation, a retired title, or a short status word can all land in the same cell. LobbyVault does not recode DIRECTOR into a NAICS industry or a licensing roster. Recipients of the campaign gifts live on the occupation hub and the 2010 cycle hub.

About 4.3% of an $88.4 million occupation stack

4.3% is $3,822,983 divided by $88,429,618. Reading only 2010 understates the parent occupation book. Reading only the parent hides that this cycle’s share is 4.3%. The leftover outside 2010 is $84,606,635. Those other-cycle dollars are not itemized on this relationship page.

Presidential-year and midterm windows are different FEC two-year clocks. This page cites cycle 2010 only. A later or earlier cell for the same occupation string is a different join even when the occupation total $88,429,618 is shared.

What a Director–2010 join cannot claim

This page does not identify boards or studios. It does not convert occupation text into a corporate gift. Recipients and parties belong on the occupation and cycle hubs.

The page does not identify employers, does not convert occupation text into a corporate gift, and does not link FEC receipts to USAspending obligations. Campaign gifts and federal awards remain separate public records. Correlation between a job title and a cycle total is not causation. Cite $3,822,983, 5,537 contributions, and 2,848 donors for Director in 2010. Cite $88,429,618 for the all-cycle occupation grouping. Name FEC.gov.

Related Director and 2010 tables

Director donations is the occupation hub behind $88,429,618. The 2010 election cycle page is the cycle census across occupations. All occupations lists other strings. All FEC ties collects other occupation-cycle pairs from the same two fields. Live hubs override this snapshot. If a hub disagrees with $3,822,983, 5,537 gifts, or 2,848 donor IDs, the hub and FEC.gov control.

Keep the occupation string DIRECTOR attached to $3,822,983 whenever the sentence also names cycle 2010. Keep 5,537 contributions and 2,848 donors in the same citation so readers can see whether Director in 2010 is a high-volume stack or a concentrated roster. The all-cycle occupation total $88,429,618 answers a different question: every window combined, not this two-year clock. Unitemized receipts, independent expenditures, and state-office campaigns sit outside this extract. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov is the source.

Questions

How much did Director-labeled donors give in 2010?
The Director grouping’s 2010 cell is $3,822,983 in itemized individual contributions, from 5,537 contributions and 2,848 donors, per FEC.gov aggregates. That is the occupation-cycle join, not a PAC total and not the $88,429,618 all-cycle occupation total.
Is Managing Director included here?
No. This cell is the self-reported string DIRECTOR matched to cycle 2010. MANAGING DIRECTOR, BOARD DIRECTOR, and ART DIRECTOR are other keys if stored separately. The FEC does not verify that the title matches a license or payroll. See the Director occupation hub for other cycles and the 2010 cycle hub for other strings.
What share of Director FEC money fell in 2010?
About 4.3%. $3,822,983 divided by $88,429,618 is the 2010 cell’s share of the lifetime occupation bucket. Other cycles hold about 95.7% ($84,606,635) on the occupation hub. See the Director occupation hub for other cycles and the 2010 cycle hub for other strings.
Does Director mean a board seat?
No. These figures are FEC individual contribution aggregates. Federal awards are published by USAspending. This page does not claim that campaign gifts funded those awards. $3,822,983 is itemized receipts tagged DIRECTOR in 2010, not an obligation total. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Unitemized gifts never enter this cell. FEC.gov is the source.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
