First Boston Corp and the 2010 FEC election cycle

First Boston Corp crossed with 2010

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — First Boston Corp and 2010 — sum to $314,867. 278 itemized contributions and 70 unique donors produced it. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables. FIRST BOSTON CORP is grouped employer text, including CORP as stored. The 2010 filter keeps receipts in that cycle whose employer field collapsed to this key. It does not recode successor bank names into this total.

Neither the First Boston Corp hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. The First Boston Corp hub is the year index for this string. FIRST BOSTON, CS FIRST BOSTON, and CREDIT SUISSE stay on their own keys if filers used them. Federal financial-agency awards on USAspending are a different file and are not funded by these itemized gifts.

3.7% of the First Boston Corp roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $8.5 million ($8,479,481). The 2010 slice of $314,867 is about 3.7% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 96.3%. Treating 2010 as the First Boston Corp FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $8,479,481 as the denominator for the 3.7% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2010 from being folded silently into $8,479,481.

278 contributions from 70 donors

Dividing $314,867 by 278 contributions yields about $1,133 per itemized gift. Dividing by 70 donors yields about $4,498 per donor. Contributions per donor average about 4.0. Those means describe the arithmetic on the packet. They are not medians and not a party split.

70 unique donors are contributor identities, not a headcount of employees, licensees, or members. Retirees and household members who reuse a workplace or title can appear. Repeat gifts raise the contribution count faster than the donor count. The overlay for First Boston Corp 2010 holds the rows.

2010 as the cycle dimension

The 2010 election cycle hub includes every stored employer for that window. First Boston Corp is one cell in that matrix. This packet does not publish a cycle-wide denominator, so no national share is stated. Open the 2010 election cycle to drop the employer filter and First Boston Corp to drop the year.

Gifts from both years of the two-year FEC window sit in the $314,867 cell because the cycle is a two-year tag, not a single Tuesday. That mechanical fact is easy to forget when a searcher wants an election-night number. The overlay is where dates become visible. This join publishes the cycle total, the 278 contributions, the 70 unique donors, and the 3.7% share of $8,479,481.

Limits of the First Boston Corp × 2010 join

Itemized individual receipts are the universe. Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and PAC disbursements sit outside $314,867. Federal awards in other databases are different datasets. Sharing an employer string and a calendar year does not turn these gifts into contracts or grants. The page is not a Credit Suisse successor filing and not a First Boston PAC.

Correlation between an employer or occupation string and a cycle year is not causation. The records show a text match, a date window, 70 donors, and 278 contributions. FIRST BOSTON, CS FIRST BOSTON, CREDIT SUISSE, and generic BANKER occupation strings are other keys if stored separately. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages.

Citing First Boston Corp and 2010 together

Start with $314,867, then First Boston Corp 2010 for rows, then the industry hub or the 2010 election cycle if a filter needs to come off. Citation template: First Boston Corp, 2010, $314,867, 278 contributions, 70 donors, 3.7% of $8,479,481, source FEC.gov. Keep neighboring spellings and occupation titles out of the total unless they grouped to this exact string.

The 3.7% share, the 70-donor count, and the $1,133 mean gift belong to this intersection. Carry them onto a successor label or a sibling occupation word and they stop being facts from this packet. This prose is a packet snapshot. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov and the live overlay control.
