Graphic Designer contributions received by ACTBLUE

Graphic Designer meeting ActBlue as a conduit

GRAPHIC DESIGNER is the grouped occupation string. ACTBLUE is committee C00401224. DESIGNER, ART DIRECTOR, and GRAPHIC ARTIST are other keys if stored separately. Matching rows sum to $1,583,586 across 46,338 contributions. The occupation hub is $5,360,774 to every committee in the aggregate. The committee overlay includes every occupation, not only Graphic Designer. This tie page exists because those two dimensions meet; it is not a restatement of either hub.

Tens of thousands of itemized lines with a low mean describe many small earmarks, not a studio PAC. The join key is the occupation string plus committee ID C00401224. It is not a finding that a trade association, employer, or candidate bundled the gifts. Filers listed GRAPHIC DESIGNER; the receipts are attributed to C00401224 in this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov does not audit job titles against licenses or payroll. DESIGNER and ART DIRECTOR, if used, sit in other hubs. CREATIVE DIRECTOR is a sibling title in this slice.

A large slice of the Graphic Designer grouping

The Graphic Designer occupation grouping shows $5,360,774 in itemized individual money. The ACTBLUE cell is $1,583,586, or 29.5% of that total. The remaining $3,777,188 went to committees other than C00401224. Opening only this tie would hide that remainder. A 29.5% ActBlue share is large for this occupation book, but other committees still hold the rest.

Graphic Designer keeps the $5,360,774 grouping and its other recipients. ACTBLUE keeps C00401224 volume from every occupation. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling occupation–committee cells so this join is not mistaken for a company PAC or for independent expenditures.

46,338 contributions and a low mean

ACTBLUE received $1,583,586 from Graphic Designer-coded receipts across 46,338 contributions. Dividing dollars by gifts gives about $34 per contribution. 46,338 lines are not 46,338 unique people. Repeat givers, multiple earmarks, and cycle stacking raise the contribution count. The packet does not publish a unique-donor figure for this cell. A mean near $34 across 46,338 lines is consistent with repeat small gifts, not a typical project fee.

The source note is explicit: these figures are FEC.gov aggregates of itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee, not independent expenditures. Committee-to-committee transfers and unitemized gifts are outside the $1,583,586 total. C00401224 can function as a conduit; this join still stores the committee as the recipient on the itemized line.

Designer variants, studio payrolls, and awards

A 29.5% share of Graphic Designer-coded dollars into C00401224 does not mean the occupation caused an election outcome, and it does not mean ACTBLUE is the occupation’s only political destination. Occupation and committee are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards. Do not treat the join as a studio treasury or as a claim about design-industry wages.

Quote $1,583,586 as 29.5% of $5,360,774 into C00401224, with 46,338 itemized lines, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Do not add sibling occupation keys. Do not fold independent expenditures into the cell. Do not treat 46,338 contributions as a headcount of people currently holding the job. This page is not an AIGA membership roster or a DESIGNER occupation total.

How to cite Graphic Designer × C00401224

A complete claim names Graphic Designer and ACTBLUE (C00401224), then $1,583,586, 46,338 contributions, and 29.5% of $5,360,774, source FEC.gov. Keep both sides of the name whenever the dollars are quoted. The occupation hub still holds $3,777,188 outside this committee. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the committee, not either hub restated.

An AIGA membership roster would be a different object. CREATIVE DIRECTOR and INTERIOR DESIGNER are sibling occupation hubs in this slice. All occupations ranks sibling titles. All FEC ties lists other occupation–committee pages. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. Mean gift $34 is $1,583,586 divided by 46,338 lines, and the occupation remainder outside C00401224 is $3,777,188. Repeat the four numbers together: $1,583,586 into C00401224, 46,338 contributions, 29.5% of $5,360,774, committee ACTBLUE.
