The Interior Designer–Colorado intersection
Occupation INTERIOR DESIGNER and donor state CO produce $543,279, 1,306 contributions, and 43 donors. The occupation hub is $11,008,458, 42,580 contributions, and 1,947 donors. Colorado’s dollar share is about 4.9%; contribution share about 3.1% (1,306 of 42,580); donor share about 2.2% (43 of 1,947). This page is the intersection of those two FEC.gov fields, not a restatement of the Interior Designer hub and not a restatement of all Colorado occupations.
DESIGNER, INTERIOR DESIGN, and ARCHITECT, if used, sit in other hubs. Do not stack INTERIOR DESIGNER with those strings into a single Colorado professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs. The FEC file stores the occupation exactly as entered. A longer or shorter variant is a different key.
The arithmetic mean gift in this Colorado cell is about $416 ($543,279 divided by 1,306 lines), against about $259 nationwide ($11,008,458 divided by 42,580). 43 Colorado donors produced 1,306 contributions, about 30.4 itemized rows per donor, versus about 21.9 nationally. A mean is not a median and not a typical check. Skew from a few large itemized gifts can move $416 without changing the unique-donor count of 43.
INTERIOR DESIGNER versus nearby design strings
INTERIOR DESIGNER is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a license, an employer, or a payroll title. The $11,008,458 national total is INTERIOR DESIGNER only. 1,947 donors produced 42,580 contributions in that occupation bucket. INTERIOR DESIGNER is a design-practice title, not an ASID or NCIDQ credential roll. Nearby labels DESIGNER, INTERIOR DESIGN, and ARCHITECT remain outside this occupation total even when one person has used more than one string.
This page does not split those 42,580 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Colorado (CO). 42,580 national contributions make INTERIOR DESIGNER a published occupation bucket; this tie locates the Colorado overlap. Independent expenditures and unitemized gifts are omitted. Committee identifiers on the itemized line are the recipient keys in the underlying file, but this packet does not publish a recipient breakdown.
Colorado as address, not project site
43 Colorado donors produced 1,306 contributions totaling $543,279. Donor state CO is the address on the record, not proof of a Colorado license, and not a limit to Colorado candidates. CO is the address on the itemized record, not a map of which campaigns received the $543,279. Out-of-state committees can receive itemized gifts from CO-coded donors.
The Colorado campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to CO. This join is only INTERIOR DESIGNER. The Interior Designer occupation hub without Colorado still holds about 95.1% of the $11,008,458 (remainder $10,465,179). Colorado’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to CO. INTERIOR DESIGNER is only this filter. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards.
What Interior Designer plus Colorado omits
A 4.9% dollar share in Colorado does not rank the state as more or less political than others. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Correlation is not causation. This page does not name donors, does not invent committees, and does not treat 43 unique donors as an ASID or NCIDQ credential roll. INTERIOR DESIGNER is not interchangeable with DESIGNER, INTERIOR DESIGN, and ARCHITECT.
Quote $543,279, 1,306 contributions, and 43 donors for Interior Designer in Colorado, against $11,008,458 nationwide, source FEC.gov. Unitemized gifts stay outside the itemized aggregate. Cycle stacking can raise line counts without raising unique people. Public records describe overlap; they do not assign motive. Keep both sides of the join—Interior Designer and Colorado—whenever the dollars are quoted.
Three numbers for Colorado Interior Designer money
A complete claim names Interior Designer and Colorado (CO), then $543,279, 1,306 contributions, 43 donors, and 4.9% of $11,008,458, source FEC.gov. Remainder outside Colorado: $10,465,179. Mean gift $416 is $543,279 divided by 1,306 lines in this state cell. Repeat the join without adding fields the packet does not publish. The canonical path is a ties URL, not a donor-detail URL.
Subtract the Colorado dollars on this page from the national INTERIOR DESIGNER occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded INTERIOR DESIGNER in every other state combined. That remainder ($10,465,179) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. A unique-donor count of 43 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. Keeping dollars, contribution count, and donor count on the same page is the point of the join.
