INTERIOR DESIGNER is the longer title. Designer alone is a different occupation key. Licensure where required is not verified. A midterm cycle tag on 2014 does not explain $539,835. Independent expenditures are omitted. Committee-to-committee transfers as a separate table are omitted. Federal spending awards are omitted. Source: FEC.gov.

INTERIOR DESIGNER is the longer title. Designer alone is a different occupation key. Licensure where required is not verified. Filer-entered labels are noisy. Spelling variants, abbreviations, and extra words create extra rows. This page cites one row: INTERIOR DESIGNER in 2014 for $539,835.

Reading 417 contributions as a line count

Line count 417 and donor count 181 answer different questions. How many itemized receipts carried INTERIOR DESIGNER in 2014? 417. How many donor keys those receipts grouped to? 181. How many dollars? $539,835. Pair counts with dollars. A small donor file can still hold a large dollar total if a few keys dominate; this packet does not prove that pattern, and it does not disprove it.

Dollar share is not a worker-count share

$539,835 ÷ $11,008,458 = 4.9%. $10,468,623 ÷ $11,008,458 = the complement. Those identities use the packet’s cycle cell and occupation total only. They do not use 181 except as a separate donor-key count. Do not convert 181 into a percentage of an unpublished national donor file and then treat that percentage as dollars.

A 4.9% dollar share means other cycles still hold $10,468,623 under the same occupation string. That is a description of this table, not a claim that Interior Designer was quiet or loud in 2014 politics. Other years are not itemized on this page except as that remainder.

What this join does not prove

This page does not rank Interior Designer against other occupations, does not call 2014 a wave, and does not treat itemized gifts as a proxy for professional opinion. Two columns matched. The occupation of the donor is not a verified job. A INTERIOR DESIGNER occupation code does not mean the money supported only people in that trade. Amended reports can move either number.

Independent expenditures and non-individual tables are omitted. See the 2014 election cycle, Interior Designer donations, all occupations, and all FEC ties for the adjacent tables. Dollar figures are FEC individual contribution aggregates. They are not federal spending awards and they do not fund USAspending totals. Source: FEC.gov.

Itemized coverage and what stays outside

Itemized coverage means receipts that met the FEC itemization threshold and carried this occupation string. $539,835 is that subset for 2014. It is not total political spending by people who hold similar jobs, and it is not total 2014 receipts.

INTERIOR DESIGNER is the longer title. Designer alone is a different occupation key. Licensure where required is not verified. Keep Interior Designer and 2014 in the same sentence as $539,835. Dropping either noun misstates the denominator.

Repeat the join in one sentence for citation: occupation Interior Designer, cycle 2014, $539,835 itemized, 417 contributions, 181 donors, 4.9% of $11,008,458. INTERIOR DESIGNER is the longer title. Designer alone is a different occupation key. Licensure where required is not verified. Designer, Decorator, Architect, and Interior Decorator stay on other occupation pages. The 2014 election cycle hub still mixes every other title. All occupations and All FEC ties are indexes, not extra dollar columns.
