Director political contributions from California

Director and California as an FEC relationship

Occupation DIRECTOR and state CA produce $14,695,873, 55,593 contributions, and 2,150 donors. The occupation nationwide is $88,429,618, 330,088 contributions, and 16,313 donors. California’s dollar share is about 17%. Contribution share is about 17% (55,593 of 330,088). Donor share is about 13% (2,150 of 16,313).

Dollar share and contribution share match at about 17%, while the donor share is lower. California Director-coded activity is therefore a sizable slice of the occupation’s money and rows, from a somewhat smaller slice of the 16,313-person national label.

Director–California uses a coarse title: $14,695,873 from 55,593 contributions and 2,150 donors, inside $88,429,618 from 330,088 contributions and 16,313 donors. About 13% of people, about 17% of rows, about 17% of dollars. Rows and dollars match. DIRECTOR does not say film, board, or nonprofit. MANAGING DIRECTOR is a different occupation string and is not in the $88,429,618 Director total. Producer is a different California occupation-state page. This join is DIRECTOR plus CA: 2,150 donors, 55,593 contributions, $14,695,873. Donor state is not recipient state. The Director hub holds $88,429,618. The California hub holds every occupation in the state. Independent expenditures are excluded.

Director as an ambiguous national label

DIRECTOR is filer-entered and unspecific. Managing director, board director, and film director can collide in the same string. Managing Director is a separate occupation page and is not included in these $88,429,618 Director totals.

Three hundred thirty thousand contributions from 16,313 donors shows frequent itemization. California’s 55,593 contributions from 2,150 donors is the CA-coded piece, not a Hollywood headcount and not a corporate-board census.

California donor-state receipts

The CA filter is $14,695,873 from 55,593 contributions and 2,150 donors. Donor state is the address on the record. Recipients may be committees anywhere.

California campaign finance overall includes Producer, Chairman, and Founder. This tie isolates Director. Producer is a different occupation string with its own California join.

What not to infer from the title

Matching Director with California does not show that entertainment or corporate boards caused electoral outcomes. The occupation field is too coarse for that claim, and occupation plus state is not causation.

Itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov. Independent expenditures are excluded. Occupation labels are filer-entered.

Pages that keep Director separate from Managing Director

Director donations holds the $88,429,618 national total. California campaign finance holds all CA-coded itemized individual receipts. All occupations and all FEC ties list Managing Director–state joins as different packets so the two titles are not collapsed.

Director as a coarse title in California filings

DIRECTOR can mean many jobs. The $14,695,873 from 2,150 donors and 55,593 contributions does not split film, nonprofit, and corporate uses. MANAGING DIRECTOR is a different occupation string and is not in these $88,429,618 Director totals. Producer is likewise a different California occupation-state page.

The Director occupation hub holds $88,429,618 from 16,313 donors. California campaign finance holds all CA-coded itemized individual receipts. All occupations and all FEC ties keep Managing Director-state joins on other URLs. Itemized individual contributions only. Independent expenditures excluded. Occupation labels are filer-entered. This page joins occupation and donor state. DIRECTOR is a short title that can mean film, nonprofit, corporate, or other roles; the FEC field does not split those meanings. Occupation DIRECTOR and donor state CA are the two filters. The $14,695,873 from 55,593 contributions and 2,150 donors is that cell inside $88,429,618. The title does not encode industry. Those California Director totals remain itemized individual contributions on FEC.gov, not independent expenditures and not an industry split of the title.
