INDEPEND OIL OPERATOR × MIDLAND

$12,000 is the published overlap for stored industry INDEPEND OIL OPERATOR and stored city MIDLAND, TX. Readable labels on this page are Independ Oil Operator and Midland, TX. 2 contributions and 1 donor produced the overlap on FEC.gov itemized individual contributions. Midland, TX’s unfiltered book is $82,334,215 on 108,952 lines, under 0.1% of which is this string.

LobbyVault’s city hub and industry hub remain the one-dimension views. This ties page is the two-dimension view. Do not collapse them. Canonical path is /ties/independ-oil-operator-donors-in-tx-midland/. On Midland, TOM BROWN, INC, GEOLOGIST, and OIL PRODUCTION are other employer or occupation keys with the same city book.

Arithmetic: about $6,000 per receipt, about $12,000 per donor. Those are $12,000 divided by 2 and 1. They are not typical gifts, not salaries, and not medians. Repeat itemizations raise the receipt count without adding donors.

The shared Midland city book is not a merge key

108,952 city-field contributions total $82,334,215. Filer-entered city MIDLAND is the key. The stored city sits in Midland County, Texas. Odessa and Midland, Michigan are other city keys. Neighboring Permian strings are not rolled into MIDLAND. Joint-fundraising addresses that typed Midland may be in. The packet does not publish unique donors for the whole city, so none are invented from 108,952.

Texas campaign-finance coverage is statewide. $82,334,215 is not that statewide figure. Unitemized federal gifts and Texas state-office filings sit outside $82,334,215. Do not add other cities to build a metro unless a packet says so. Leftover after this string is $82,322,215.

Truncation is the grouping, not a typo to fix

$12,000 on 2 lines from 1 donor is the Midland, TX slice of INDEPEND OIL OPERATOR. Other spellings are other keys. A Midland donor with a different employer or occupation is not in the slice. An out-of-city donor with this employer string is not in the slice. INDEPEND is the stored truncation, not a corrected Independent. One donor and two lines produced $12,000. That is still a count, not a name. Do not merge this cell with other Midland oil strings because the city total matches.

The industry hub is the string without the city filter. This packet’s industry-side integers for the join are $12,000, 2, and 1. Do not infer a national total from them. Midland, TX can appear in news copy, Census tables, and USAspending maps. Those appearances do not change this FEC join.

One-donor arithmetic on two receipts

No USAspending dollars are in this packet. $12,000 is not an award. FEC and spending datasets can share a geography without funding each other. Independent expenditures are a different FEC file. Motive and party are not harvested here. Correlation is not causation. Do not read 1 donor as proof that Independ Oil Operator controls Midland.

If live pages disagree, the newer FEC extract controls. Internal links are not optional decoration. Midland, TX (/cities/tx-midland/), Independ Oil Operator (/industries/independ-oil-operator/), Texas campaign finance (/states/TX/), All FEC ties (/ties/) document the city dimension, the industry dimension, Texas, and the ties index. A citation that omits the city or omits Independ Oil Operator has left the join. Two contributions from one donor can be a pair of itemizations, a correction, or a second committee — this packet does not say which.

How to record the Independ Oil Operator × Midland, TX snapshot

Template: employer/industry grouping INDEPEND OIL OPERATOR, contributor city Midland, TX, $12,000 on 2 itemized individual contributions from 1 donor, against $82,334,215 on 108,952 contributions (under 0.1%). Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates. City labels are filer-entered.

City-cycle and industry-cycle joins are other files. This file stays on one city and one stored string. Keep both nouns in citations: Independ Oil Operator and Midland, TX. $12,000 is already inside $82,334,215. Do not add them. If 1 is 1, that is still a count, not a name.

Committee-to-committee transfers and operating expenditures are other FEC files. They are not added into the individual-contribution join on this page. Quote the join with both nouns in the same sentence so a downstream citation cannot drop a side. Treat the live LobbyVault hub as newer than this snapshot.
