Two keys: GENERAL PARTNER and 2012
LobbyVault stores FEC occupation strings separately from election cycles. Crossing them for General Partner and 2012 yields $853,028. That is 299 itemized lines and 154 unique donors. The figure is not a committee’s reported disbursement. FEC.gov remains the underlying source.
A partnership-title occupation string, not a pe fund census can collide with similar form text. This join uses the exact grouping GENERAL PARTNER. Related titles are not added. The 154 donor identities are contributor keys, not a headcount of a workforce.
Dropping either filter changes the story. Drop the year and you see $9,486,497. Drop the string and you see the entire 2012 cycle. This page holds both filters at once.
General Partner versus MANAGING PARTNER
MANAGING PARTNER, PARTNER, and LIMITED PARTNER can sit in other buckets. This join uses the exact grouping GENERAL PARTNER. Related titles are not added into $853,028 or $9,486,497.
A title on a form is not an employment verification. People using a household occupation, a retired title, or a short status word can all land in the same cell. LobbyVault does not recode GENERAL PARTNER into a NAICS industry. The 9.0% ratio is $853,028 divided by $9,486,497. Other even-year joins for GENERAL PARTNER are not listed in this packet; they collectively hold $8,633,469. Citing 2012 as if it were the General Partner lifetime total would overstate this cell by $8,633,469.
Means on $853,028
Packet arithmetic: $853,028 ÷ 299 ≈ $2,853 per contribution; $853,028 ÷ 154 ≈ $5,539 per donor; 299 ÷ 154 ≈ 1.9 contributions per donor. None of those figures is a median, a mode, or a party breakdown.
The Commission’s itemized-individual universe excludes unitemized gifts. Adding those would change the means. This join does not add them. A mean of $2,853 per itemized line and $5,539 per donor can hide a few large receipts. The packet supplies no median. 299 contributions remaining larger than 154 donors is the expected pattern when identities give more than once.
Lifetime General Partner money versus 2012
A lifetime figure of $9,486,497 can swallow a single cycle if the join is skipped. 2012 is $853,028, about 9.0%. The leftover $8,633,469 belongs on other cycle pages for the same string, not in this cell.
$9,486,497 is still only this exact grouping. It is not every related title and not a sector total. 9.0% describes 2012 inside General Partner, nothing else. FEC cycle 2012 tags a two-year window. Odd-year receipts inside that window are in $853,028 if they were itemized against GENERAL PARTNER. This file does not publish a year-by-year split because the facts do not.
FEC gifts are not federal awards
National awards, research grants, and agency contracts live in USAspending. This join has no grant identifiers. Ranking occupations as more political is not a claim these facts support.
The page does not identify employers, does not convert occupation text into a corporate gift, and does not link FEC receipts to USAspending obligations. Campaign gifts and federal awards remain separate public records. Cite $853,028, 299 contributions, and 154 donors for General Partner in 2012. Cite $9,486,497 for the all-cycle occupation grouping. Name FEC.gov. General Partner as a partnership-title occupation string, not a PE fund census can appear in licensing or contracting databases under similar names. Those tables are not this $853,028. The join does not claim a payment trail from campaign gifts to federal awards.

Restating the join without new numbers: General Partner in 2012 is $853,028 from 299 itemized individual contributions and 154 unique donors on FEC.gov. The same string stores $9,486,497 across cycles, so 2012 is about 9.0% and other windows hold $8,633,469 (91.0%). The grouping is a partnership-title occupation string, not a PE fund census, not a private-equity PAC, an LP roster, or Managing Partner stored as another key. No donor names, recipient committees, party split, or USAspending dollars are in this packet. Live overlay pages override this snapshot. Mean gift size is about $2,853; mean per donor about $5,539; about 1.9 contributions per donor. Those means are arithmetic, not medians. The two-year FEC window tagged 2012 can include receipts from both years. Independent expenditures remain outside $853,028.
