Gainesville, FL and the 2008 FEC election cycle

City string GAINESVILLE filtered to cycle 2008

Gainesville, FL is the geographic side. 2008 is the time side. $137,603 is the money that survives both filters. Volume is 96 lines. Mean line size is about $1,433. None of those numbers name a recipient committee, a candidate, or a donor.

The Florida hub is a statewide rollup and will not match $137,603. The 2008 hub is a nationwide cycle rollup and will not match $137,603. Use those pages for context, then return to this join for the city-year cell. Gainesville is stored as GAINESVILLE in Florida. Jacksonville, Orlando, and Tampa are other Florida keys. Same-named Gainesville strings in other states are other pages.

Donor-city text as stored for Gainesville, FL

Use the Gainesville, FL city overlay for rows that are not limited to 2008. Use this tie when the question names both Gainesville and 2008. The canonical path for the tie is /ties/fl-gainesville-2008-donations/. The city path in the packet’s internal links is /cities/fl-gainesville/.

Nothing in the city total $18,290,739 identifies a donor. Nothing in the cycle cell $137,603 identifies a donor. Publishing invented names would violate the packet contract. This file lists dollars, counts, and keys only.

Time filter: election cycle 2008

2008 filters the city table down from $18,290,739 to $137,603. That is the time cut. It does not filter by occupation, employer, ZIP, or committee. Those cuts would be other kinds of ties.

The 2008 tag is a two-year FEC election-cycle window (the even year and the odd year paired with it). This packet does not split 2007 from 2008. If you need Gainesville in a different even year, that is a different slug, not a paragraph on this page.

Caveats on Gainesville, FL in 2008

This is not legal advice, not campaign advice, and not a prediction about later cycles. It is an explanation of one FEC aggregate: Gainesville, FL in 2008 at $137,603. The 96 contribution records are the volume. The $18,290,739 city total is the longer running sum. Stop at those facts.

Overlay pages that outrank this JSON

Researchers comparing 2008 to another even year for Gainesville should open the other tie rather than rescale $137,603 by guesswork. No year-over-year rate is in the facts. This file does not compute one. The Florida hub remains the statewide entry; this page remains the Gainesville, FL × 2008 cell.

Snapshot versus live FEC tables

Snapshot date is not in the packet, so none is claimed. Bulk FEC files are periodically restated. When they move, $137,603, 96, and $18,290,739 can move. The live city page /cities/fl-gainesville/ and cycle page /election-cycles/2008/ are the places to check. This article will not invent a retrieval timestamp. Restating without new facts: Gainesville, FL in 2008 is $137,603 from 96 itemized individual contributions on FEC.gov. The city string stores $18,290,739 across cycles, so this window is about 0.75% and other windows hold $18,153,136. Arithmetic mean per line is about $1,433. Unique donors, recipient committees, party split, and USAspending dollars are not in the packet. Live overlays at the city hub, the 2008 hub, and All FEC ties outrank this snapshot if they differ. Keep both join sides in any reuse of $137,603: donor city Gainesville, FL and FEC cycle 2008, sourced from FEC.gov itemized individual receipts. The 96 contribution lines are volume for this cell only and are not added to counts from other Gainesville cycle pages. City lifetime money $18,290,739 already includes the 2008 window; do not add $137,603 to $18,290,739.

Gainesville, FL remains one donor-city string on FEC.gov. Cycle 2008 remains one even-year tag. Together they produce $137,603 from 96 itemized individual contributions. The city key still stores $18,290,739 when every stored cycle is included, so 2008 is about 0.75% of that running total and $18,153,136 sits in other windows. Those other windows are not listed here and are not estimated. Mean line size about $1,433 is $137,603 divided by 96, an arithmetic mean rather than a median.

Questions

How much did Gainesville donors give in 2008?

FEC individual-contribution aggregates assign $137,603 to donor city GAINESVILLE in FL during cycle 2008. Volume is 96 itemized lines. This is not PAC spending and not a federal award total. Other even-year windows for Gainesville are other pages; they are not mixed into $137,603.

What share of Gainesville FEC money is 2008?

The 2008 window holds $137,603 of $18,290,739 recorded for Gainesville, FL, roughly 0.75%. The 2008 tag is a two-year FEC election-cycle window (the even year and the odd year paired with it).
