Governor political contributions from West Virginia

Governor and West Virginia as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation GOVERNOR and donor state WV produce $37,900, 2 contributions, and 1 donors. The occupation hub is $51,122,600, 453 contributions, and 83 donors. West Virginia’s dollar share is about 0.1%; contribution share about 0.4% (2 of 453); donor share about 1.2% (1 of 83). One West Virginia donor is about 1.2% of 83 national donors; 2 contributions are about 0.4% of 453 national rows; dollars are about 0.1% of $51,122,600.

The North Dakota Governor tie is a different state join. FORMER GOVERNOR remains another occupation key if stored separately. Do not stack GOVERNOR with FORMER GOVERNOR or the North Dakota Governor tie into a single West Virginia professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

1 West Virginia donors produced 2 contributions, about 2.0 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 5.5 rows per donor nationally (453 contributions from 83 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this West Virginia cell is about $18,950, against about $112,853 nationwide. West Virginia’s one donor key versus North Dakota’s four donor keys are two counts, not a combined gubernatorial total.

The same office title, a different state code

GOVERNOR is a filer-entered string. GOVERNOR nationwide is still $51,122,600, 453 contributions, and 83 donors. West Virginia is one state cell inside that hub. The $51,122,600 national total is GOVERNOR only. 83 donors produced 453 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 453 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to West Virginia (WV). This page does not confirm a sitting governor. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to West Virginia.

West Virginia on the state side

1 West Virginia donors produced 2 contributions totaling $37,900. Donor state WV is the address on the record, not proof of a West Virginia license, and not a limit to West Virginia candidates. WV is the address on the itemized record. One unique donor is not a West Virginia officeholder file.

The West Virginia campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to WV. This join is only GOVERNOR. The Governor occupation hub without West Virginia still holds about 99.9% of the $51,122,600. West Virginia’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to WV. GOVERNOR is only this filter.

What the West Virginia Governor join is not

This page does not add North Dakota’s Governor dollars, verify officeholders, or claim that Governor-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Two state cells on one occupation hub are two joins, not an Appalachian governor total.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. GOVERNOR is not a governors association roster. Donor state WV is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Term years are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one West Virginia filter

Subtract the West Virginia dollars on this page from the national GOVERNOR occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded GOVERNOR in every other state combined. That remainder ($51,084,700) 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 1 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 2 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $37,900 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the West Virginia dollars, or only the GOVERNOR national total, drops a key. One donor producing 2 contributions totaling $37,900 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.
