Geologist political contributions from Louisiana

Geologist and Louisiana as a science-title join

Occupation GEOLOGIST and donor state LA produce $245,171, 707 contributions, and 51 donors. The occupation hub is $9,308,121, 24,898 contributions, and 1,311 donors. Dollar, contribution, and donor shares cluster within a few points (2.6%, 2.8%, 3.9%). Louisiana tracks the national Geologist mix rather than concentrating one of the three measures. Louisiana Geologist is a small-dollar slice of a high-dollar science-title occupation.

Geologist is a science title as typed, not a petroleum recode. Nearby strings — PETROLEUM GEOLOGIST, GEOSCIENTIST, ENGINEER, and GEOLOGICAL ENGINEER — sit in other occupation hubs when filers used those words. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $245,171 or $9,308,121. PETROLEUM GEOLOGIST is a longer string with its own hub. A Louisiana address is not proof of a Gulf exploration seat.

Fifty-one Louisiana donors produced 707 contributions, about 13.9 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 19.0 rows per donor nationally (24,898 contributions from 1,311 donors). Mean dollars per donor in this Louisiana cell are about $4,807, versus about $7,100 across the occupation. Those ratios are arithmetic on the six packet numbers, not a gift-size ranking of influence.

GEOLOGIST versus Petroleum Geologist

GEOLOGIST is filer-entered. The FEC file does not verify a Louisiana PG license or a named-employer geology seat. The national grouping is 1,311 donors, 24,898 contributions, and $9,308,121.

24,898 contributions from 1,311 donors shows repeat itemization nationwide. Louisiana’s 707 contributions from 51 donors is the LA-coded piece. This page does not split those rows by cycle, employer, or recipient committee. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Louisiana.

Fifty-one Louisiana donors on the state key

Fifty-one Louisiana donors produced 707 contributions totaling $245,171. Donor state LA is the address on the record, not proof of a Louisiana professional license, and not a limit to Louisiana candidates. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee.

The Louisiana campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to LA. This join is only GEOLOGIST. Subtract $245,171 from $9,308,121 and $9,062,950 remains coded Geologist in every other state combined (24,191 contributions, 1,260 donors). That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties.

A science-title cell is not a PG license extract

This page does not measure geologist output, does not rank firms, and does not claim that Geologist-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Not a Louisiana Board of Professional Geoscientists license extract, not an AAPG roll, and not an oil-company roster.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Itemized individual contributions only. Firm names, license numbers, and employer strings are not in these six numbers. Donor state LA is not recipient geography.

Geoscience strings that stay on other hubs

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 $245,171, 707 contributions, and 51 donors on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Louisiana dollars, or only the Geologist national total, drops a key.

Geologist donations holds the $9,308,121 national occupation total. Louisiana campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and all FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. PETROLEUM GEOLOGIST, GEOSCIENTIST, ENGINEER, is a different occupation string if a filer used it.

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. PETROLEUM GEOLOGIST is a longer string with its own hub. A Louisiana address is not proof of a Gulf exploration seat.

Questions

How much have Geologist donors in Louisiana given?

Are these licensed Louisiana professional geoscientists?

Occupation is GEOLOGIST and state is LA. The FEC file does not check a Louisiana PG license. Petroleum Geologist and Geoscientist are other occupation keys if filers used those words. Employer is a different FEC field and is not on this join.

What share of Geologist FEC money is from Louisiana?

2.6% of the $9,308,121 occupation total is in this Louisiana join ($245,171). Louisiana also accounts for 2.8% of contributions (707 of 24,898) and 3.9% of donors (51 of 1,311). Those three shares are computed from the packet facts only.

Does this money go to Louisiana candidates?

Not necessarily. Donor state is Louisiana. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee. This page does not allocate the $245,171 by office or by in-state versus out-of-state campaigns. Independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov itemized individual contributions; occupation labels are filer-entered.
