Government Affairs political contributions from North Carolina

How occupation Government Affairs meets donor state North Carolina

Occupation GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS and donor state NC produce $111,345, 29 contributions, and 4 donors. The occupation hub is $8,440,747, 17,735 contributions, and 947 donors. North Carolina’s dollar share is about 1.3%; contribution share about 0.2% (29 of 17,735); donor share about 0.4% (4 of 947). Four North Carolina donors are about 0.4% of 947 national donors; 29 contributions are about 0.2% of 17,735 national rows; dollars are about 1.3% of $8,440,747.

LOBBYIST, GOVERNMENT RELATIONS, and PUBLIC AFFAIRS, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Government Affairs total. Do not stack GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS with LOBBYIST or GOVERNMENT RELATIONS into a single North Carolina professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

4 North Carolina donors produced 29 contributions, about 7.2 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 18.7 rows per donor nationally (17,735 contributions from 947 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this North Carolina cell is about $3,839, against about $476 nationwide. North Carolina’s about 1.3% dollar share from four people is a concentrated slice of a mid-size occupation, not a lobbying-disclosure extract.

GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS as a workplace string

GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a lobbyist registration, a client list, or a North Carolina employer. Two words on the form are the filter. The $8,440,747 national total is GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS only. 947 donors produced 17,735 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 17,735 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to North Carolina (NC). Nine hundred forty-seven national donors make this a mid-size occupation. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state NC.

What donor state North Carolina does and does not mean

4 North Carolina donors produced 29 contributions totaling $111,345. Donor state NC is the address on the record, not proof of a North Carolina license, and not a limit to North Carolina candidates. NC is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a North Carolina lobbyist badge, and not a map of which campaigns received the $111,345.

The North Carolina campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NC. This join is only GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS. The Government Affairs occupation hub without North Carolina still holds about 98.7% of the $8,440,747. North Carolina’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to NC. GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS is only this filter.

What the join is not

This page does not count registered lobbyists, merge LOBBYIST dollars, or claim that Government Affairs-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS is not LOBBYIST even when filers meant advocacy work. Actress in North Carolina is a different occupation-state pair in this slice.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS is not a lobbyist-registration extract. Donor state NC is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Client names are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Government Affairs filter

Subtract the North Carolina dollars on this page from the national GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS in every other state combined. That remainder ($8,329,402) 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 of 4 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 29 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $111,345 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the North Carolina dollars, or only the GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS national total, drops a key. Four donors producing 29 contributions totaling $111,345 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.
