Friends of Schumer — 2016 cycle receipts

Friends of Schumer locked to 2016

A pac-cycle page exists because two FEC dimensions meet. One side is FRIENDS OF SCHUMER (C00346312), stored as Senate candidate committee (FEC type S). The other is election cycle 2016. $17,442,741 is the receipt total on that intersection. It is not the 2016 national cycle sum across every committee, and it is not FRIENDS OF SCHUMER's receipts in any other even-year window. Stored type is S: Senate candidate committee (FEC type S). The packet Super PAC flag is 0. Do not relabel this cell as a Super PAC page. Committee designation is P: principal campaign committee (designation P).

Spending above receipts in 2016 coexists with a large stored cash line. Those are separate FEC columns. Principal Senate committee, Super PAC flag 0. Keep 2016 on every citation of $17,442,741. 2016 is a presidential-year FEC two-year window in this extract. The even-year tag is not a single calendar year of January-only activity. Source: FEC.gov committee receipts by election cycle from committee cycleHistory. Committee pages, not donor pages. Campaign contributions are not USAspending obligations; this join does not claim that $17,442,741 funded federal awards.

C00346312 as Senate type S, designation P, flag 0

The committee page at /committees/C00346312/ is the overlay for C00346312. That hub is not limited to 2016. Quote $17,442,741 only with 2016 attached. Quote the hub only as the committee overlay. Friends of Schumer in 2016 is the join. Stored type is S: Senate candidate committee (FEC type S). The packet Super PAC flag is 0. Do not relabel this cell as a Super PAC page.

/committees/ still lists every other filer. Those rows are not this cell. Keep C00346312 on the citation so a similar public name cannot swallow this 2016 total. Cash on hand is stored as $10,676,815. That line is not a bank login, not receipts, and not disbursements. Individual contributions are $13,423,865, 77.0% of receipts $17,442,741. The remainder inside receipts is $4,018,876. That column is an aggregate, not a list of contributors, employers, or zip codes.

2016 is not the 2010 Schumer cell for the same ID

Federal election cycles on FEC.gov are two-year windows tagged by the even year of the election. 2016 is that tag. The cycle hub at /election-cycles/2016/ lists many committees; FRIENDS OF SCHUMER is one row in that extract. $17,442,741 belongs only to this committee in that window. 2016 is a presidential-year FEC two-year window in this extract. The even-year tag is not a single calendar year of January-only activity.

/ties/ collect other committee × cycle pairs and other LobbyVault joins. Opening a sibling tie does not change $17,442,741 on this URL. Correlation is not causation: a large 2016 receipt total does not prove why money moved or who sent it.

Disbursements $20,175,908 above 2016 receipts $17,442,741

Receipts $17,442,741 and disbursements $20,175,908 are separate FEC columns. Disbursements $20,175,908 exceed receipts $17,442,741 by $2,733,167. Spending above receipts in one two-year window is a reporting pattern, not a motive claim and not a ranking. Neither figure is an independent-expenditure-only total unless the packet’s Super PAC flag says so. This extract does not split operating expenditures, transfers, or refunds unless those columns appear in facts. Cash on hand is stored as $10,676,815. That line is not a bank login, not receipts, and not disbursements. Individual contributions are $13,423,865, 77.0% of receipts $17,442,741. The remainder inside receipts is $4,018,876. That column is an aggregate, not a list of contributors, employers, or zip codes.

A later even year is not a second donor roster

This join does not name donors, unique contributors, or employers. It does not convert campaign receipts into USAspending obligations. FEC reports and federal award tables are different datasets even when a public name overlaps. Do not invent donor names. Do not invent contractors or award recipients. Spending above receipts in 2016 coexists with a large stored cash line. Those are separate FEC columns. Principal Senate committee, Super PAC flag 0. Keep 2016 on every citation of $17,442,741.

Independent expenditures by other IDs remain another table. Party transfers, if they exist, are not itemized here unless stored. Keep the citation to FRIENDS OF SCHUMER, C00346312, cycle 2016, receipts $17,442,741, disbursements $20,175,908, source FEC.gov. Stored type is S: Senate candidate committee (FEC type S). The packet Super PAC flag is 0. Do not relabel this cell as a Super PAC page.
