Greenberg Traurig political money — 2012 FEC cycle

Greenberg Traurig is one axis; 2012 is the other

An industry-cycle page is not a restatement of Greenberg Traurig and not a restatement of 2012. It is the cell where they meet: $338,300, 392 contributions, 152 donors. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by employer/industry grouping and election cycle are the source note.

On the employer side, Greenberg Traurig is law-firm employer text. On the cycle side, 2012 is a two-year FEC window, not a single Election Day. Gifts dated in either year of that window sit in $338,300.

Leaving either axis off the citation misstates the record. $4,116,654 is the lifetime Greenberg Traurig bucket. The 2012 hub is every grouping that year. The join is $338,300.

2012 is not the whole Greenberg Traurig story

Greenberg Traurig across all cycles is $4,116,654. Greenberg Traurig in 2012 is $338,300 — about 8.2%. The gap is $3,778,354. Closing that gap would require other cycle joins, which this packet does not list.

A reader who only opens the 2012 overlay still sees $338,300 for this string, not $4,116,654. A reader who only opens the industry hub still needs the year filter to recover $338,300. 2012 holds $338,300 of $4,116,654 for this string — about 8.2%. Other cycles hold $3,778,354 (91.8%). Folding those other cycles into a 2012 citation would misstate the record by $3,778,354.

What 152 unique donors are not

152 unique donors are not a census of Greenberg Traurig. They are the identities attached to 392 itemized rows that summed to $338,300. Mean gift $863; mean per donor $2,226; about 2.6 rows each.

Household reuse of a workplace string is common on FEC forms. That inflates neither $4,116,654 nor $338,300 with “extra companies”; it can inflate donor counts relative to a strict employee roster that this table does not have. 392 itemized contributions from 152 donors produced the cell. Unique donors are contributor keys, not employees counted by HR. This file does not invent names for those 152 identities.

How FEC cycle 2012 works on this join

Cycle 2012 is the second key in the join. Combined with GREENBERG TRAURIG, it produces $338,300. Combined with nothing, it is the year hub. Combined with a different string, it is a different tie.

Itemized receipts in either year of the window are in scope. Unitemized receipts are not. Independent expenditures are not. Those exclusions apply regardless of Greenberg Traurig. The 2012 hub without Greenberg Traurig is a different page. The Greenberg Traurig hub without 2012 is a different page. Only the overlap is $338,300.

Outside $338,300: PACs, unitemized, awards

Outside $338,300: unitemized individual gifts, independent expenditures, PAC spending, and any federal award table. Inside $338,300: itemized individual receipts matching GREENBERG TRAURIG in cycle 2012.

The page is law-firm employer text, not a Greenberg Traurig PAC, a legal-services NAICS rollup, or a firm treasury disbursement. Naming those exclusions keeps the join from being read as a company political budget. Self-reported employer text splits across spellings. GREENBERG TRAURIG is the key used here. Related titles and legal names are other keys and are not added into $338,300 or $4,116,654.

Use Greenberg Traurig 2012 for rows. This prose stays inside packet facts: $338,300, 392, 152, 8.2% of $4,116,654. Restating the join without new numbers: Greenberg Traurig in 2012 is $338,300 from 392 itemized individual contributions and 152 unique donors on FEC.gov. The same string stores $4,116,654 across cycles, so 2012 is about 8.2% and other windows hold $3,778,354 (91.8%). The grouping is law-firm employer text, not a Greenberg Traurig PAC, a legal-services NAICS rollup, or a firm treasury disbursement. No donor names, recipient committees, party split, or USAspending dollars are in this packet. Live overlay pages override this snapshot. Mean gift size is about $863; mean per donor about $2,226; about 2.6 contributions per donor. Those means are arithmetic, not medians. The two-year FEC window tagged 2012 can include receipts from both years. Independent expenditures remain outside $338,300.
