- 2014 is about 6.7% of the occupation’s $6,243,964 lifetime total.

Electrical Contractor as occupation, cycle as the other filter
Two FEC dimensions meet here: occupation ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR and the 2014 election cycle. The intersection is $415,686 ($415,686), 414 contributions, and 210 donors. 6.7% of Electrical Contractor occupation dollars ($6,243,964) fall in 2014. 2014 is a midterm trade-and-firm cell: 414 receipts from 210 donors, a contractor-title slice rather than a license extract.
Electrical Contractor is a two-word trade-and-firm title as typed, not a license recode. Nearby strings — ELECTRICIAN, CONTRACTOR, GENERAL CONTRACTOR, and ELECTRICAL — stay on other pages. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $415,686 or $6,243,964. Electrician without Contractor is a different key and is not folded into this cell. The FEC file does not verify an electrical-contractor license, a master-electrician card, or a bond.
The ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR string across cycles
On the occupation side, $6,243,964 ($6.2 million) is the Electrical Contractor total across cycles. The 2014 cell is 6.7% of that roll; the remaining $5,828,278 sits in other years on the occupation hub and is not itemized by year on this packet. Electrical Contractor is not a NAICS 238210 census and not a named-firm bid history. Electrical Contractor is not a state contractor-license extract, a union IBEW roll, or a public-works bid log.
Open Electrical Contractor donations for the $6,243,964 roll. Open the 2014 election cycle hub for every occupation in that window. All occupations and All FEC ties place this pair beside other occupation-cycle pages without combining dollar figures. Occupation labels are filer-entered on itemized individual receipts.
Receipts and donor keys inside this cycle cell
Inside the 2014 cell, 414 itemized contributions map to 210 donors. That is about 2.0 receipts per donor in the join — a repeat-gift ratio, not a unique-person survey of everyone who holds a similar job. Dollars per receipt average about $1,004; dollars per donor average about $1,979. Averages hide large and small lines sitting in the same total.
2014 is a midterm FEC clock (House and Senate contests without a presidential ticket on the same ballot). This packet does not split dollars by chamber, primary versus general, or party. The 2014 election cycle hub shows the cycle’s full occupation mix; this page shows only the Electrical Contractor row. 210 donors is a disclosure count for this key in 2014, not a turnout figure. Unitemized federal gifts never enter $415,686.
Two dollar columns, one occupation and one year
Keep $415,686 attached to 2014 and $6,243,964 attached to the occupation string. Adding them would double-count the 2014 dollars that already sit inside the occupation total. Subtracting them does not yield “all other cycles”; it only yields a remainder ($5,828,278) that this packet does not itemize by year.
Cite FEC.gov. Individual contributions are not PAC independent expenditures and not lobbying registrations. Nothing in the join says donations paid for a federal award or a USAspending obligation. Quote $415,686 with both nouns: Electrical Contractor and 2014.
What an Electrical Contractor cycle join cannot claim
Matching Electrical Contractor with 2014 does not measure influence, does not assign party, and does not say Electrical Contractor donors caused an electoral result. Correlation between an occupation string and a cycle is not causation. The table is also not a state contractor-license extract, a union IBEW roll, or a public-works bid log.
Itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov only. Independent expenditures, unitemized gifts, and state-office campaigns are excluded. A person who wrote a nearby title is not in $415,686. A person who wrote this string is in it even if the day job differs. LobbyVault does not audit licenses. The public record is the string plus the dollars.
Linked electrical-contractor hub, cycle hub, and sibling titles
Electrical Contractor donations holds the $6,243,964 occupation total. The 2014 election cycle page holds every occupation in that window, not only Electrical Contractor. All occupations places ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR beside other titles without merging sibling strings (ELECTRICIAN, CONTRACTOR, GENERAL CONTRACTOR, and ELECTRICAL). All FEC ties lists other occupation-cycle pairs so $415,686 is not added to a different year.
Use the occupation hub for all-cycle Electrical Contractor dollars ($6,243,964). Use the 2014 cycle hub for the even-year window across titles. Use this tie for the intersection only: $415,686, 414 contributions, 210 donors, 6.7% of occupation dollars. Those four internal links are the only hrefs this copy may use. Amended individual contribution reports can move $415,686; a later harvest of the same occupation string can move $6,243,964. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved.

- Are these licensed electrical contractors?
- Occupation is ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR. The FEC file does not check a state contractor license. Electrician, Contractor, and General Contractor are other keys.

Electrical Contractor in 2014 is $415,686 on 414 receipts from 210 donors.
- What share of Electrical Contractor FEC money fell in 2014?
- About 6.7%. $415,686 divided by $6,243,964 is the 2014 cell’s share of the lifetime occupation bucket. Other cycles hold about $5,828,278 on the occupation hub. See the Electrical Contractor occupation hub for other cycles and the 2014 cycle hub for other strings.
- Does Electrical Contractor 2014 money fund federal awards?
- 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. $415,686 is itemized receipts tagged ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR in 2014, not an obligation total. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
