Editor political contributions from New Jersey

EDITOR joined to New Jersey donor state

Occupation EDITOR and donor state NJ produce $1,061,760, 2,763 contributions, and 56 donors. The occupation hub is $12,055,499, 72,579 contributions, and 1,922 donors. New Jersey’s dollar share is about 8.8% ($1,061,760 of $12,055,499). Its contribution share is about 3.8% (2,763 of 72,579). Its donor share is about 2.9% (56 of 1,922).

Dollar share is about three times donor share. Fifty-six people produced a larger slice of dollars than of unique-donor headcount. Contribution share (3.8%) sits between donor share and dollar share, which is consistent with both repeat giving and larger average gifts in the New Jersey cell.

WRITER, JOURNALIST, and PRODUCER are other keys. They are not inside $12,055,499 unless grouped here. This packet does not claim that grouping. Trader donors in New Jersey is a neighboring occupation join with a different dollar figure.

A one-word title across publishing, film, and software

EDITOR can mean newspaper editor, book editor, film editor, or a software role. FEC.gov stores the string; it does not recode it to an industry. One thousand nine hundred twenty-two national donors used the word. People who typed MANAGING EDITOR or FILM EDITOR sit in other occupation totals if those strings are separate slugs.

Seventy-two thousand five hundred seventy-nine contributions from 1,922 donors nationwide is about 38 itemized gifts per donor. New Jersey’s 2,763 contributions from 56 donors is about 49 gifts per donor. Repeat itemization is denser in the New Jersey cell than in the national occupation average.

Fifty-six New Jersey donors and mean gift size

Dividing $1,061,760 by 2,763 contributions yields about $384 per gift. Dividing by 56 donors yields about $18,960 per donor. Nationally, $12,055,499 divided by 72,579 contributions is about $166 per gift. The New Jersey mean is more than double the national occupation mean. A few large itemized gifts among 56 people can move that average.

Donor state NJ is the address on the receipt. Recipients need not be New Jersey committees. Proximity to New York publishing is a geographic fact people mention; it is not a packet fact and is not used here as a causal claim.

Fifty-six New Jersey donors produced 2,763 contributions, about 49 itemized gifts per person, versus about 38 nationally. Frequency is higher. Mean gift (about $384 versus about $166) is also higher. Both gaps push the 8.8% dollar share above the 2.9% donor share. Neither gap is a newsroom ranking.

What 8.8% of Editor dollars is not

New Jersey’s share is a table split. It is not evidence that New Jersey caused editor giving, that editors as a class funded a party, or that campaign receipts measure media influence. Occupation and state travel together on receipts. Causation is not in the join.

Coverage is itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov. Unitemized money and independent expenditures are out of scope. Occupation labels are filer-entered.

Trader donors in New Jersey ($867,619, 129 donors) share a donor state and a different one-word title. WRITER and JOURNALIST, if stored as other slugs, are not inside $1,061,760. EDITOR can mean film or books as easily as newspapers; the occupation field does not say which.

Occupation hub, state hub, other New Jersey titles

Editor donations carries the $12,055,499 national occupation total. New Jersey campaign finance carries all NJ-coded itemized individual activity. All occupations and All FEC ties keep EDITOR separate from WRITER and from Trader’s New Jersey cell so $1,061,760 is not folded into either.

The occupation hub still holds $10,993,739 outside New Jersey ($12,055,499 minus $1,061,760). Use Editor donations for that remainder. New Jersey campaign finance holds every other NJ-coded title. This page holds only EDITOR × NJ.

Fifty-six people and 2,763 lines

New Jersey’s Editor cell is receipt-dense (about 49 gifts per donor) and amount-heavier than the national occupation mean. $1,061,760 is the product of both. Fifty-six unique donors remain a thin unique-person list relative to 1,922 nationally. That combination is the join’s shape, not a ranking of newsrooms.

Trader’s New Jersey cell has more unique donors (129) and fewer dollars ($867,619). The two one-word titles share a donor state only. Keep $1,061,760 on EDITOR × NJ.
