A midterm on a wide bank-name key

Four hundred sixty-six donors is a broad employee-style pattern, unlike one-donor holding-company keys. 1,460 lines imply about 3.1 receipts per donor. Average line size is about $2,011. Average per donor is about $6,299. Those 2014 ratios describe itemized midterm activity among people who listed this employer string, not the firm’s bonus pool.

The 2012 Goldman Sachs tie is a separate file with separate cycle dollars and counts. Both pages share the $44,049,682 industry total. This page’s numeric claims stop at $2,935,417, 1,460, and 466.

Bank-name keys in midterms still show employee-style breadth. Goldman Sachs in 2014 has 466 donors and 1,460 lines totaling $2,935,417, 6.7% of $44,049,682. That is not the 2012 presidential cell, which lives on another URL with its own 671 donors and $4,126,251. This file’s official numbers are 2014 only, plus the shared industry total. Average line size about $2,011 describes itemized midterm gifts among people who listed this employer string, not the firm’s bonus pool and not a PAC.

6.7% of the Goldman Sachs roll

Two million nine hundred thirty-five thousand four hundred seventeen dollars is 6.7% of $44,049,682. A midterm taking a smaller share than a presidential slice of the same key is consistent with FEC volume, but this file does not restate 2012’s cycle total as a fact. The share versus the all-cycle roll is the comparison that belongs here.

The industry hub links years. This tie exists so 2014 is not treated as a rounding error after a presidential overlay.

Employer string, not a bank PAC

Goldman Sachs PAC disbursements are committee reports. This cell is individual Schedule A lines whose employer grouped to the bank name. Independent expenditures are another schedule. Mixing them into $2,935,417 would break the join.

Spellings with “& Co.” and similar variants may have rolled into this key. People who listed a subsidiary under a different public name may not have. 466 is a unique-key count inside the grouping for 2014, not payroll headcount.

Exclusions

Federal contracts or TARP-era residual awards in USAspending are not funded by these receipts. Shared institution names across datasets are not a trail from donations to awards. Unitemized gifts are absent. State contributions are absent.

Recipient mix is on the overlay. Party, candidate, and Super PAC lines can share the $2,935,417. This prose does not allocate them.

The Goldman Sachs 2014 overlay is the data join. The Goldman Sachs industry hub holds $44,049,682. The 2014 election-cycle hub holds every employer string that year. The ties index holds other industry–cycle pages, including the 2012 Goldman Sachs join as its own URL.

Citing Goldman Sachs in a midterm

Write Goldman Sachs, 2014, $2,935,417, 1,460 contributions, 466 donors, 6.7% of $44,049,682, from FEC individual-contribution aggregates. Point to the 2012 Goldman Sachs tie for the presidential cut instead of mixing cycle cells. Point to the overlay for recipient committees. Point to the industry hub for the $44,049,682 stack and other years.

PAC disbursements and independent expenditures are other FEC schedules. USAspending awards that mention the same institution are another government file. Shared names are not a trail from these 466 donors to those awards. Unitemized gifts never enter the 1,460-line count. 466 keys are matching results, not a headcount of any office.

The 2014 election-cycle hub places this bank string beside occupation labels and one-donor property keys. The ties index holds other industry–cycle pages. Keep both sides of the join in every citation: Goldman Sachs and 2014. Dropping either side turns a midterm employee-style cell into a lifetime or sector claim it is not.

Four hundred sixty-six donors at about $2,011 per line is the midterm employee-style signature of this bank key. Cite Goldman Sachs × 2014 as $2,935,417, 1,460 contributions, 466 donors, 6.7% of $44,049,682. Leave the 2012 cell on its own URL. Leave PAC schedules on committee reports. Leave USAspending on the awards site.
