Insurance Agent occupation money in the 2008 FEC cycle

Joining INSURANCE AGENT to the 2008 cycle

Insurance Agent in 2008 is $1,799,755 on 2,949 itemized lines from 1,552 people in the unique-donor roll-up. 2008 accounts for 7.1% of the Insurance Agent occupation total ($1,799,755 of $25,280,335). Most Insurance Agent-coded dollars sit in other FEC cycles. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates, grouped by self-reported occupation and election cycle, are the source.

2,949 contributions from 1,552 donors is moderate repeat itemization inside the cycle filter. Unique-donor count collapses multiple gifts by the same person inside this occupation-cycle pair. It does not verify that those 1,552 people still used that title after 2008.

This page is not a restatement of the Insurance Agent hub or of the 2008 cycle hub. The occupation hub is every cycle. The cycle hub is every occupation. The tie is the intersection: $1,799,755.

Reading INSURANCE AGENT without merging sibling titles

Filers who typed insurance agent produced the all-cycle occupation total of $25,280,335. INSURANCE AGENT is the two-word title. INSURANCE as a one-word occupation and INSURANCE BROKER are other keys. The 2008 join does not verify producer licenses or captive versus independent status. Carrier PACs stay in committee totals. The occupation is not a carrier captive-agent census, a state insurance-license file, or an insurer PAC.

Reading 2008 without treating it as all Insurance Agent money

The 2008 election cycle hub holds itemized individual receipts for every occupation coded to that even-year window. This tie keeps only Insurance Agent. $1,799,755 is therefore not a cycle-wide total. FEC.gov labels this even-year federal window 2008. It is not a 2010 midterm filter and not a later presidential cycle.

2,949 contributions from 1,552 donors is moderate repeat itemization inside the cycle filter. About 1.9 itemized rows per donor is a filing ratio. Mean per receipt about $610; mean per donor about $1,160. Those means are arithmetic on the 2008 cell only. The packet has no median, no party split, and no employer table. Unitemized federal gifts never enter $1,799,755. Three numbers define the Insurance Agent × 2008 cell: dollars $1,799,755, contribution rows 2,949, unique donors 1,552. Share of occupation dollars is 7.1% of $25,280,335.

How not to read Insurance Agent money in 2008

Matching Insurance Agent with 2008 does not measure influence, does not assign party, and does not say Insurance Agent donors caused an electoral result. Correlation between an occupation string and a cycle is not causation. The table is also not a carrier captive-agent census, a state insurance-license file, or an insurer PAC.

Itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov only. Independent expenditures, unitemized gifts, and state-office campaigns are excluded. Occupation labels are filer-entered. INSURANCE AGENT is the two-word title. INSURANCE as a one-word occupation and INSURANCE BROKER are other keys. The 2008 join does not verify producer licenses or captive versus independent status. Carrier PACs stay in committee totals. Campaign gifts and federal awards remain separate public records. This page does not claim that $1,799,755 funded USAspending obligations. If a reader only needs the occupation, the Insurance Agent donations hub is $25,280,335; the 2008 election cycle hub is the even-year inventory across titles. Do not add those hubs together.

Linked Insurance Agent and 2008 tables

Insurance Agent donations holds the $25,280,335 occupation total. The 2008 election cycle page holds every occupation in that window, not only Insurance Agent. All occupations places INSURANCE AGENT beside other titles without merging sibling strings (INSURANCE, AGENT, and INSURANCE BROKER). All FEC ties lists other occupation-cycle pairs so $1,799,755 is not added to a different year.

Use the occupation hub for all-cycle Insurance Agent dollars ($25,280,335). Use the 2008 cycle hub for the even-year window across titles. Use this tie for the intersection only: $1,799,755, 2,949 contributions, 1,552 donors, 7.1% of occupation dollars. Those four internal links are the only hrefs this copy may use.

Using the Insurance Agent 2008 figures in a citation
