$2,089,845 as the General Manager–2008 headline

General Manager in 2008 is $2,089,845 on 2,337 itemized lines from 1,285 people in the unique-donor roll-up. 2008 accounts for 7.8% of the General Manager occupation total ($2,089,845 of $26,732,218). Most General Manager-coded dollars sit in other FEC cycles. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates, grouped by self-reported occupation and election cycle, are the source.

2,337 contributions from 1,285 donors is closer to one-to-two itemized gifts per person inside this cycle filter, still not a headcount of the occupation. Unique-donor count collapses multiple gifts by the same person inside this occupation-cycle pair. It does not verify that those 1,285 people still used that title after 2008.

This page is not a restatement of the General Manager hub or of the 2008 cycle hub. The occupation hub is every cycle. The cycle hub is every occupation. The tie is the intersection: $2,089,845.

General Manager across cycles versus this 2008 slice

Filers who typed general manager produced the all-cycle occupation total of $26,732,218. GENERAL MANAGER appears in sports, hospitality, retail, and manufacturing. The FEC field does not name the industry. GM as an abbreviation is a different string if typed that way. The 2008 join is the spelled-out title plus the cycle. The occupation is not a sports-franchise GM census, a hotel-GM roll, or a company officer list.

General Manager itemization inside the 2008 FEC window

The 2008 election cycle hub holds itemized individual receipts for every occupation coded to that even-year window. This tie keeps only General Manager. $2,089,845 is therefore not a cycle-wide total. FEC.gov labels this even-year federal window 2008. It is not a 2010 midterm filter and not a later presidential cycle.

2,337 contributions from 1,285 donors is closer to one-to-two itemized gifts per person inside this cycle filter, still not a headcount of the occupation. About 1.8 itemized rows per donor is a filing ratio. Mean per receipt about $894; mean per donor about $1,626. Those means are arithmetic on the 2008 cell only. The packet has no median, no party split, and no employer table. Unitemized federal gifts never enter $2,089,845. Three numbers define the General Manager × 2008 cell: dollars $2,089,845, contribution rows 2,337, unique donors 1,285. Share of occupation dollars is 7.8% of $26,732,218.

Occupation plus cycle is not causation

Matching General Manager with 2008 does not measure influence, does not assign party, and does not say General Manager donors caused an electoral result. Correlation between an occupation string and a cycle is not causation. The table is also not a sports-franchise GM census, a hotel-GM roll, or a company officer list.

Itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov only. Independent expenditures, unitemized gifts, and state-office campaigns are excluded. Occupation labels are filer-entered. GENERAL MANAGER appears in sports, hospitality, retail, and manufacturing. The FEC field does not name the industry. GM as an abbreviation is a different string if typed that way. The 2008 join is the spelled-out title plus the cycle. Campaign gifts and federal awards remain separate public records. This page does not claim that $2,089,845 funded USAspending obligations.

Linked General Manager and 2008 tables

General Manager donations holds the $26,732,218 occupation total. The 2008 election cycle page holds every occupation in that window, not only General Manager. All occupations places GENERAL MANAGER beside other titles without merging sibling strings (MANAGER, GM, and OPERATIONS MANAGER). All FEC ties lists other occupation-cycle pairs so $2,089,845 is not added to a different year.

Use the occupation hub for all-cycle General Manager dollars ($26,732,218). Use the 2008 cycle hub for the even-year window across titles. Use this tie for the intersection only: $2,089,845, 2,337 contributions, 1,285 donors, 7.8% of occupation dollars. Those four internal links are the only hrefs this copy may use.
