INTERFACE GROUP in 2014: $5.1 million from one donor

The employer string INTERFACE GROUP accounts for $5,144,382 in the 2014 election cycle, according to FEC.gov aggregates on LobbyVault. That slice is 18 contributions from 1 donor. The all-cycle INTERFACE GROUP total is $164,477,252. Cycle 2014 is 3.1% of that parent book. The 2012 sibling join showed $35,407,750 from 5 donors and 38 lines. This file is the midterm cut only. A smaller dollar total and a drop from five donors to one is two packet facts, not a narrative about a firm shrinking.

A thin midterm slice of a $164 million employer string

One unique donor produced 18 itemized receipts totaling $5.14 million in 2014. Line count fell from 38 in the 2012 join to 18 here; donor count fell from 5 to 1. Those comparisons are available because both packets exist. This page still cites only 2014 fields as its own join: $5,144,382, 18 contributions, 1 donor.

Three point one percent of $164,477,252 is a small cycle share. Most of the employer book sits in other cycles, including the heavier 2012 cut. The Interface Group parent page holds the $164.5 million roll-up so readers do not add two joins and miss the rest.

The Interface Group 2014 overlay lists the disclosed rows. LobbyVault does not infer ownership from one contributor ID.

Keep 2014 and 2012 on separate clocks

FEC cycle 2014 is a midterm window. Cycle 2012 is a presidential window. Summing $5,144,382 with $35,407,750 would be a reader-built subtotal, not a field in this packet. The 2014 election cycle hub shows other employer strings in the same midterm.

Party and office are not packet fields.

What 1 donor and 18 lines omit

The other four 2012 donors, if they did not appear under this string in 2014. Unitemized gifts. Other employer spellings. Committee PAC filings that are not this individual string. State filings.

A 3.1% cycle share is still $5.14 million. Small share and small dollars are different statements; this slice is the first, not the second.

One donor and 18 lines totaling $5,144,382 is a thinner cut than the 2012 sibling (5 donors, 38 lines, $35,407,750). Donor count fell from five to one; dollars fell more than line count. Those comparisons are available because both packets exist. This page still cites only 2014 fields as its own join.

The Interface Group 2014 overlay lists the disclosed rows. LobbyVault does not infer ownership from one contributor ID. A 3.1% cycle share is still $5.14 million.

Citation

Cite $5,144,382, 18 contributions, and 1 donor for INTERFACE GROUP in 2014. Cite $164,477,252 for the all-cycle grouping. Name FEC.gov. Live hubs override this snapshot.

Most of the $164,477,252 parent sits in other cycles, including the heavier 2012 cut. Adding $5,144,382 to $35,407,750 would be a reader-built subtotal, not a field in this packet. The parent page already holds the all-cycle total.

Unitemized gifts, the other four 2012 donors if they did not appear under this string in 2014, other employer spellings, committee PAC filings, and state filings sit outside the $5,144,382.

Citing a 3.1% midterm cut of a $164 million string

A complete citation: INTERFACE GROUP in FEC cycle 2014 totals $5,144,382 from 1 donor and 18 itemized contributions, 3.1% of the all-cycle total of $164,477,252. The label is grouped employer text, not a 10-K and not a headcount.

Small share and small dollars are different statements. This slice is a small share of a large parent, not a trivial dollar total. Eighteen lines from one person is repeat itemizing.

This join keeps the 2014 cut from being mistaken for the 2012 cut or the parent. Each cycle overlay is its own packet.

Eighteen lines from one donor totaling $5,144,382 is 3.1% of $164,477,252. The 2012 sibling’s $35,407,750 from five donors belongs on that page. Small share still means $5.14 million. Quote the live Interface Group 2014 overlay after amendments.

People among the 2012 five who do not appear in 2014 under this string are not in this join’s donor count of 1. That is a cycle-keyed inventory, not a claim that four people stopped existing. Unitemized gifts remain omitted.
