Investments political contributions from Colorado

The Investments–Colorado intersection

Occupation INVESTMENTS and donor state CO produce $1,288,157, 1,548 contributions, and 112 donors. The occupation hub is $45,362,830, 31,959 contributions, and 3,656 donors. Colorado’s dollar share is about 2.8%; contribution share about 4.8% (1,548 of 31,959); donor share about 3.1% (112 of 3,656). One hundred twelve Colorado donors are 3.1% of 3,656 national INVESTMENTS donors. Contribution share (1,548 of 31,959) is about 4.8%, ahead of the 2.8% dollar share of $45,362,830.

INVESTOR, INVESTMENT ADVISOR, and INVESTMENT BANKER, if used, sit in other hubs. Do not stack INVESTMENTS with INVESTOR or INVESTMENT ADVISOR into a single Colorado professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

112 Colorado donors produced 1,548 contributions, about 13.8 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 8.7 rows per donor nationally (31,959 contributions from 3,656 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this Colorado cell is about $832, against about $1,419 nationwide. Colorado’s mean gift is about $832, below the national INVESTMENTS mean of about $1,420. Row share ahead of dollar share is a smaller-check pattern on this plural label.

INVESTMENTS as a plural occupation string

INVESTMENTS is a filer-entered string. The word can mean a job in an investments shop or a filer describing a source of income. The file does not confirm registration or AUM. The $45,362,830 national total is INVESTMENTS only. 3,656 donors produced 31,959 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 31,959 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Colorado (CO). This page locates the Colorado overlap. It does not name funds among the 112 Colorado donors.

Colorado as donor state

112 Colorado donors produced 1,548 contributions totaling $1,288,157. 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 proof of a Colorado investment-adviser registration and not a limit to Colorado candidates. Denver and mountain addresses share the same code.

The Colorado campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to CO. This join is only INVESTMENTS. The Investments occupation hub without Colorado still holds about 97.2% of the $45,362,830. Colorado’s state hub includes every occupation coded to CO. INVESTMENTS is only this filter.

What not to infer from Investments plus Colorado

This page does not merge Investor dollars, count RIAs, or claim that Investments-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. INVESTMENTS is not INVESTOR and not INVESTMENT ADVISOR. Those strings, if used, never enter the $1,288,157.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. INVESTMENTS is not an SEC RIA or FINRA roster. Donor state CO is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Firm names are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Investments filter

Subtract the Colorado dollars on this page from the national INVESTMENTS occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded INVESTMENTS in every other state combined. That remainder ($44,074,673) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count of 112 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 1,548 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $1,288,157 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Colorado dollars, or only the INVESTMENTS national total, drops a key. One hundred twelve donors producing 1,548 contributions is the fact to keep next to the $1,288,157 headline.

Investments donations holds the $45,362,830 national occupation total. Colorado campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and all FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. INVESTOR is a different occupation hub if that string exists.
