Import Motors Inc political contributions from Grand Rapids, MI

How Import Motors Inc meets Grand Rapids, MI on the FEC tape

$12,600 is the intersection of two filer-entered fields: employer/industry grouping IMPORT MOTORS INC and contributor city GRAND RAPIDS with state MI. LobbyVault keeps a Grand Rapids, MI city hub and an Import Motors Inc industry hub. Neither hub is this page. The city hub is every industry string in Grand Rapids, MI. The industry hub is IMPORT MOTORS INC in every city. This file answers only both filters at once.

7 contributions from 1 donor produced $12,600. One donor produced seven receipts totaling $12,600. Repeat gifts add receipts without always adding heads. Arithmetic mean per receipt is about $1,800; per harvested donor, about $12,600. Those means are division of packet facts, not salaries, not medians, and not typical household gifts.

IMPORT MOTORS INC is a stored dealer-employer name, not an auto-retail NAICS sector. $12,600 counts only rows that stored this exact string in Grand Rapids, MI. Other spellings, job titles, parent names, and blank employer rows are other keys. Do not invent donor names; this extract publishes a count, not a roster.

The Grand Rapids, MI side of the Import Motors Inc join

Grand Rapids, MI’s all-industry itemized book in this extract is $91,070,736 ($91.1 million) across 137,911 contributions. $12,600 is under 0.1% of that city book. A thin share is expected when the industry key is an exact string: most Grand Rapids, MI receipts use other employer labels. Do not treat under 0.1% as a sector’s weight in Grand Rapids, MI unless the packet listed a sector roll-up. It lists IMPORT MOTORS INC only.

Grand Rapids is a Kent County, Michigan city string. Wyoming and East Grand Rapids are other stored cities. Michigan campaign finance covers a larger geography than this city string. Do not add $12,600 to the state hub; the state extract already contains these rows when the same tape is used. All FEC ties lists sibling city-industry pages. None of them converts $12,600 into spending by Grand Rapids, MI candidates.

The Import Motors Inc side outside Grand Rapids, MI

The Import Motors Inc industry hub is the same stored string in every city, not a Michigan-only table. $12,600 is the Grand Rapids, MI slice of that string. A donor in another city who stored IMPORT MOTORS INC is not in this join. A donor in Grand Rapids, MI who stored a different employer string is not in this join either. This packet publishes the industry-side dollars for the grouping inside this city as $12,600 with 7 contributions and 1 donor.

This packet does not name committees, parties, or cycles for the Import Motors Inc × Grand Rapids, MI overlap. Open the live Import Motors Inc page and the live Grand Rapids, MI page for those breakdowns if the extract publishes them. Quote the join with both nouns in the same sentence so a downstream citation cannot drop a side. $12,600 across 7 receipts from 1 donor is the only overlap this extract published.

What the Import Motors Inc × Grand Rapids, MI dollars omit

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $12,600. Michigan state-office filings sit outside it. Independent expenditures are a different FEC file. City labels and industry labels are both filer-entered; LobbyVault does not recode GRAND RAPIDS into a Census place or IMPORT MOTORS INC into a standardized occupation. PAC or joint-fundraising addresses that stored this pair of strings follow the same rule as household streets.

Do not read $12,600 as proof that Import Motors Inc controls Grand Rapids, MI politics. The join is two fields. Correlation is not causation. If the live hubs disagree with $12,600 or 1 donor, the newer FEC extract controls. This snapshot is not a third disclosure system.

Using Grand Rapids, MI and Import Motors Inc links without mixing statutes

Internal links go to Grand Rapids, MI, Import Motors Inc, Michigan campaign finance, and All FEC ties. Use those four doors. FEC individual contributions are not USAspending awards. This packet has no obligation dollars and no award counts. Do not add $12,600 to federal spending in Michigan. Campaign receipts and federal awards are different statutes even when both mention Grand Rapids, MI.

Researchers citing the join should keep both nouns in the sentence: Import Motors Inc and Grand Rapids, MI. Dropping either noun turns this page into a restatement of a hub it is not. Do not add $12,600 to $91,070,736; the first number is already inside the second.

Questions

How much did Import Motors Inc donors in Grand Rapids, MI give?

Itemized FEC individual contributions storing industry IMPORT MOTORS INC and city GRAND RAPIDS total $12,600 across 7 receipts from 1 donor in this extract. That is the join, not Grand Rapids, MI’s all-industry book of $91.1 million. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does Import Motors Inc in Grand Rapids, MI include every related job title?

No. IMPORT MOTORS INC is the exact stored string. Other employer spellings are other keys and are omitted from $12,600. 1 donor and 7 receipts follow that exact-match rule. LobbyVault does not map the field to a standardized occupation list or to NAICS.

What share of Grand Rapids, MI itemized money is Import Motors Inc?

$12,600 is under 0.1% of the $91.1 million Grand Rapids, MI city book (137,911 city-field contributions). A thin share usually means other employer strings dominate the city tape, not that the grouping is absent. Quote both dollars. Do not upgrade under 0.1% into a sector ranking.

Do Import Motors Inc donations in Grand Rapids, MI fund federal spending there?

No. These figures are FEC individual contributions, not USAspending awards. $12,600 does not become a contract because both rows can mention Grand Rapids, MI. Different statutes, different forms. This packet has no obligation dollars. Filings remain on FEC.gov.
