A small New Jersey list inside a national General Partner table
Occupation GENERAL PARTNER and donor state NJ match on $2,590,076, 155 contributions, and 15 donors. The occupation hub is $9,486,497, 4,469 contributions, and 569 donors. New Jersey’s dollar share is about 27%; contribution share about 3% (155 of 4,469); donor share about 3% (15 of 569).
Fifteen people, 155 rows, $2,590,076—about a quarter of the occupation’s dollars from about 3% of its donors. That is one of the more concentrated occupation-state joins in this slice. The page still does not name the 15 donors or the partnerships. It reports the overlap of two columns.
Fifteen New Jersey donors produced 155 contributions, about 10 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about eight rows per donor nationally (4,469 contributions from 569 donors). The striking figure is dollars: about 27% of the $9,486,497 from about 3% of donors. Fifteen people can dominate a labeled occupation’s state slice without representing a sector.
General Partner as a title on FEC receipts
GENERAL PARTNER can mean a PE or VC role, a law-firm partner who used this phrasing, or another partnership interest. PARTNER, MANAGING PARTNER, and MEMBER are other strings. Member has its own New Jersey tie with a different occupation string. Do not add the two New Jersey dollar figures; the labels differ.
Five hundred sixty-nine donors and $9,486,497 nationwide describe the GENERAL PARTNER bucket only. This page locates the New Jersey slice of that bucket.
New Jersey as donor state
Fifteen New Jersey donors produced 155 contributions totaling $2,590,076. Donor state NJ is the address on the record, which may be a residence or a firm. It is not proof of a New Jersey-domiciled fund and not a limit to New Jersey candidates.
The New Jersey campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NJ. Investment Banker, Marketing, Financial Consultant, and Member NJ ties are other pages.
New Jersey’s campaign-finance hub is not a general-partner hub. Member, Investment Banker, and Financial Consultant NJ ties are other strings. The General Partner occupation hub without New Jersey still holds about 73% of the $9,486,497. Adding MEMBER and GENERAL PARTNER New Jersey dollars mixes labels.
What 15 donors cannot support as a conclusion
This join does not measure carried interest, fund size, or whether General Partner-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping match. Correlation is not causation. A 15-person list is too thin to treat as the state’s partnership sector.
Itemized individual contributions only. Unitemized receipts, independent expenditures, and partnership PAC activity are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
GENERAL PARTNER is not a PE-fund census and not a carried-interest report. Itemized individual contributions only. Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and partnership PACs are omitted. The $2,590,076 is not committed capital. Donor state NJ is not recipient geography. Correlation is not causation.
What the General Partner–New Jersey remainder is
Subtract the New Jersey dollars on this page from the national General Partner occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded General Partner in every other state combined. That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.
A unique-donor count is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New Jersey dollars, or only the General Partner national total, drops a key.
This relationship is not a forecast and not a ranking of influence. Occupation does not cause contributions, and donor state does not cause recipient geography. Public records, two fields, one intersection. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates; occupation labels are filer-entered.

- Why only 15 New Jersey donors?

- Is General Partner the same as Member or Partner?

- Does this money go to New Jersey candidates?
- Not necessarily. Donor state is New Jersey. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee. This page does not allocate the $2,590,076 by office or by in-state versus out-of-state campaigns.
