Doctor Of Optometry political contributions from Colorado

Doctor Of Optometry and Colorado as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY and donor state CO produce $284,076, 1,371 contributions, and 82 donors. The occupation hub is $5,866,385, 21,990 contributions, and 1,912 donors. Colorado’s dollar share is about 4.8%; contribution share about 6.2% (1,371 of 21,990); donor share about 4.3% (82 of 1,912). Eighty-two Colorado donors are about 4.3% of 1,912 national donors in this bucket, while 1,371 contributions are about 6.2% of 21,990 national rows.

OPTOMETRIST, OD, and EYE DOCTOR, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Doctor Of Optometry total. Do not stack DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY with OPTOMETRIST or OD into a single Colorado professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

82 Colorado donors produced 1,371 contributions, about 16.7 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 11.5 rows per donor nationally (21,990 contributions from 1,912 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this Colorado cell is about $207, against about $267 nationwide. Colorado’s about 4.8% share of $5,866,385 is a high-frequency professional slice, not a handful of large checks.

DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY as a credential-style string

DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify an OD license in Colorado or any other state. The words on the form are the filter. The $5,866,385 national total is DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY only. 1,912 donors produced 21,990 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 21,990 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Colorado (CO). One thousand nine hundred twelve national donors make this a many-person bucket. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state CO.

Colorado on the state side

82 Colorado donors produced 1,371 contributions totaling $284,076. Donor state CO is the address on the record, not proof of a Colorado license, and not a limit to Colorado candidates. CO is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a Colorado OD license, and not a map of which campaigns received the $284,076.

The Colorado campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to CO. This join is only DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY. The Doctor Of Optometry occupation hub without Colorado still holds about 95.2% of the $5,866,385. Colorado’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to CO. DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY is only this filter.

What the join is not

This page does not count licensed ODs, rank practices, or claim that Doctor Of Optometry-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY is not PHYSICIAN and not OPTOMETRIST even when filers meant the same clinic.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY is not a licensing-board extract. Donor state CO is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. License numbers are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Doctor Of Optometry filter

Subtract the Colorado dollars on this page from the national DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY in every other state combined. That remainder ($5,582,309) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count of 82 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 1,371 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $284,076 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Colorado dollars, or only the DOCTOR OF OPTOMETRY national total, drops a key. Eighty-two donors producing 1,371 contributions is the fact to keep next to the $284,076 headline.
