Finance and New Jersey as a sector-word intersection

Occupation FINANCE and donor state NJ produce $3,146,821, 5,383 contributions, and 471 donors. The occupation hub is $63,396,379, 88,566 contributions, and 7,237 donors. Dollar, contribution, and donor shares cluster within a few points (5.0%, 6.1%, 6.5%). New Jersey tracks the national Finance mix rather than concentrating one of the three measures. New Jersey Finance donor share runs ahead of the dollar share on a large national bucket.

Finance is a one-word sector stamp, not a license recode. Nearby strings — FINANCIAL ADVISOR, CFO, BANKER, and INVESTMENTS — sit in other occupation hubs when filers used those words. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $3,146,821 or $63,396,379. FINANCE as a one-word stamp is broader than BANKER and is kept separate on purpose.

471 New Jersey donors produced 5,383 contributions, about 11.4 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 12.2 rows per donor nationally (88,566 contributions from 7,237 donors). Mean dollars per donor in this New Jersey cell are about $6,681, versus about $8,760 across the occupation. Those ratios are arithmetic on the six packet numbers, not a gift-size ranking of influence.

FINANCE as a filer-typed industry label

FINANCE is filer-entered. The FEC file does not verify Series 7, a CFA charter, or a New Jersey banking appointment. The national grouping is 7,237 donors, 88,566 contributions, and $63,396,379.

88,566 contributions from 7,237 donors shows repeat itemization nationwide. New Jersey’s 5,383 contributions from 471 donors is the NJ-coded piece. This page does not split those rows by cycle, employer, or recipient committee. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to New Jersey.

Four hundred seventy-one New Jersey Finance donors

471 New Jersey donors produced 5,383 contributions totaling $3,146,821. Donor state NJ is the address on the record, not proof of a New Jersey professional license, and not a limit to New Jersey candidates. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee.

The New Jersey campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NJ. This join is only FINANCE. Subtract $3,146,821 from $63,396,379 and $60,249,558 remains coded Finance in every other state combined (83,183 contributions, 6,766 donors). That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties.

Five percent of a $63 million Finance book

This page does not measure finance output, does not rank firms, and does not claim that Finance-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Not a FINRA census, not a New Jersey DFS registrant file, and not a Wall Street headcount.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Itemized individual contributions only. Firm names, license numbers, and employer strings are not in these six numbers. Donor state NJ is not recipient geography.

Money titles that remain other hubs

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 $3,146,821, 5,383 contributions, and 471 donors on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New Jersey dollars, or only the Finance national total, drops a key.

Finance donations holds the $63,396,379 national occupation total. New Jersey 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. FINANCIAL ADVISOR, CFO, BANKER, is a different occupation string if a filer used it.

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. FINANCE as a one-word stamp is broader than BANKER and is kept separate on purpose.

Where the Finance–New Jersey pair sits

Finance donations holds the $63,396,379 national occupation total. New Jersey 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.
