Finance political contributions from California

Finance and California as a sector-word join

Occupation FINANCE and donor state CA together sum to $8,305,421, 13,462 contributions, and 966 donors. The occupation hub is $63,396,379, 88,566 contributions, and 7,237 donors. California’s share of dollars is 13.1%; of contributions, 15.2% (13,462 of 88,566); of donors, 13.3% (966 of 7,237).

966 California donors produced 13,462 contributions totaling $8,305,421. That is 13.1% of the $63,396,379 Finance occupation total. The leftover $55,090,958 is Finance-coded money from every other state combined on this extract.

California’s $8,305,421 is 13.1% of $63,396,379. About $55,090,958 remains Finance-coded in every other state. Keep INVESTMENTS and BANKING on their own pages. Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted.

FINANCE as a sector used as a job

FINANCE is a sector phrase typed as an occupation. FINANCIAL ANALYST, INVESTMENTS, and BANKING are other strings if used; those rows are not inside $63,396,379. Seven thousand two hundred thirty-seven donors produced 88,566 contributions totaling $63,396,379.

California’s 966 donors are 13.3% of that count, 15.2% of contribution rows, and 13.1% of dollars. The shares cluster in the low teens. This California slice does not dominate the Finance occupation book.

Nine hundred sixty-six California Finance donors

966 California donors produced 13,462 contributions totaling $8,305,421. Donor state CA is the address on the contribution record, not proof of a California workplace, and not a limit to California candidates.

The California campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to CA. This join is only FINANCE. FINANCIAL ANALYST, INVESTMENTS, and BANKING are other occupation strings if filers used them; they are not this page even when they share the CA state code.

Finance donations without California still holds the remainder of the $63,396,379 occupation total. A California directory of workplaces would need employment data this FEC join does not contain.

Thirteen percent of a large Finance occupation book

This page does not measure a California bank-employment series or a FINRA census, and it does not claim that Finance-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation.

FINANCE fragments against FINANCIAL ANALYST, INVESTMENTS, and BANKING. Those strings, if used, never enter the $63,396,379 or the $8,305,421. Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. The join does not allocate the California dollars by recipient office or by in-state versus out-of-state committees.

Sector word versus desk titles

Subtract the California dollars on this page from the national Finance occupation total and the difference is $55,090,958 still coded Finance in every other state combined. That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. Finance donations holds the unlabeled-by-state total; California campaign finance holds every occupation with this state code; all occupations and all FEC ties place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the California dollars, or only the Finance national total, drops a key.

This relationship is not a forecast and not a ranking of influence. Occupation does not cause contributions, and donor state does not cause recipient geography. Public records, two fields, one intersection. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates; occupation labels are filer-entered.
