Filmmaker political contributions from New Mexico

The Filmmaker–New Mexico intersection

Occupation FILMMAKER and donor state NM produce $115,691, 190 contributions, and 6 donors. The occupation hub is $5,442,487, 22,735 contributions, and 765 donors. New Mexico’s dollar share is about 2.1%; contribution share about 0.8% (190 of 22,735); donor share about 0.8% (6 of 765). Six New Mexico donors are about 0.8% of 765 national donors in this bucket, while 190 contributions are about 0.8% of 22,735 national rows. Dollar share (about 2.1%) runs ahead of headcount.

DIRECTOR, PRODUCER, and WRITER, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Filmmaker total. Do not stack FILMMAKER with DIRECTOR or PRODUCER into a single New Mexico professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

6 New Mexico donors produced 190 contributions, about 31.7 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 29.7 rows per donor nationally (22,735 contributions from 765 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this New Mexico cell is about $609, against about $239 nationwide. New Mexico’s about 2.1% share of $5,442,487 from six people is a small-headcount slice, not a production-incentive ledger.

FILMMAKER as a production-title string

FILMMAKER is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a credit, a union card, or a New Mexico production incentive. The words on the form are the filter. The $5,442,487 national total is FILMMAKER only. 765 donors produced 22,735 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 22,735 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to New Mexico (NM). Seven hundred sixty-five national donors make this a modest occupation. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state NM.

New Mexico as donor state

6 New Mexico donors produced 190 contributions totaling $115,691. Donor state NM is the address on the record, not proof of a New Mexico license, and not a limit to New Mexico candidates. NM is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a New Mexico shoot, and not a map of which campaigns received the $115,691.

The New Mexico campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NM. This join is only FILMMAKER. The Filmmaker occupation hub without New Mexico still holds about 97.9% of the $5,442,487. New Mexico’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to NM. FILMMAKER is only this filter.

What not to infer from Filmmaker plus New Mexico

This page does not count film productions, merge producer dollars, or claim that Filmmaker-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. FILMMAKER is not DIRECTOR even when one person used both titles on different forms. Laborer in New Mexico is a different occupation-state pair in this same slice.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FILMMAKER is not a New Mexico film-commission roster. Donor state NM is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Credits and employer names are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Filmmaker filter

Subtract the New Mexico dollars on this page from the national FILMMAKER occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded FILMMAKER in every other state combined. That remainder ($5,326,796) 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 6 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 190 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $115,691 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New Mexico dollars, or only the FILMMAKER national total, drops a key. Six donors producing 190 contributions totaling $115,691 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.

Filmmaker donations holds the $5,442,487 national occupation total. New Mexico campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and all FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. Laborer in New Mexico is a different occupation-state tie; do not add those dollars here.
