Investments political contributions from New Jersey

New Jersey donors who listed their occupation as Investments reported $1,710,011 in FEC itemized individual contributions. That join covers 408 contributions from 86 donors. Nationwide, INVESTMENTS-coded receipts total $45,362,830 across 31,959 contributions and 3,656 donors. New Jersey holds about 3.8% of those dollars. Eighty-six New Jersey donors produced 408 contributions. Dollar share is about 3.8%; contribution share about 1.3%. Eighty-six people against $1,710,011 is a thin, high-mean cell. This New Jersey cell is not the Massachusetts Investments join.

Investments and New Jersey as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation INVESTMENTS and donor state NJ produce $1,710,011, 408 contributions, and 86 donors. The occupation hub is $45,362,830, 31,959 contributions, and 3,656 donors. New Jersey’s dollar share is about 3.8%; contribution share about 1.3% (408 of 31,959); donor share about 2.4% (86 of 3,656). Eighty-six New Jersey donors are about 2.4% of 3,656 national donors; 408 contributions are about 1.3% of 31,959 national rows; dollars are about 3.8% of $45,362,830.

INVESTOR, PRIVATE INVESTOR, and INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Investments total. Do not stack INVESTMENTS with INVESTOR or INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT into a single New Jersey professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

86 New Jersey donors produced 408 contributions, about 4.7 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 New Jersey cell is about $4,191, against about $1,419 nationwide. New Jersey’s about 3.8% dollar share from 86 people runs far ahead of the 1.3% contribution share — a large-mean slice unlike Massachusetts’s 1,828-row cell.

INVESTMENTS as a thin New Jersey title

INVESTMENTS is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a Series license, a fund, or an AUM figure. One word on the form is the filter. 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 New Jersey (NJ). Thirty-one thousand nine hundred fifty-nine national contributions make INVESTMENTS a mid-frequency bucket. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state NJ.

New Jersey as the donor-state code

86 New Jersey donors produced 408 contributions totaling $1,710,011. Donor state NJ is the address on the record, not proof of a New Jersey license, and not a limit to New Jersey candidates. NJ is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a New Jersey fund, and not a map of which campaigns received the $1,710,011.

The New Jersey campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NJ. This join is only INVESTMENTS. The Investments occupation hub without New Jersey still holds about 96.2% of the $45,362,830. New Jersey’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to NJ. INVESTMENTS is only this filter.

What the Investments–New Jersey join is not

This page does not measure assets under management, add Massachusetts Investments dollars, or claim that Investments-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. INVESTMENTS is not INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT even when filers meant a capital occupation. This cell is not the Massachusetts Investments pair.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. INVESTMENTS is not a securities-license extract. Donor state NJ is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Fund names are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one New Jersey Investments filter

Subtract the New Jersey 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 ($43,652,819) 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 86 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 408 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $1,710,011 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New Jersey dollars, or only the INVESTMENTS national total, drops a key. Eighty-six donors producing 408 contributions totaling $1,710,011 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.

Related tables

Investments donations holds the $45,362,830 national occupation total. New Jersey 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. Massachusetts has a separate Investments occupation-state tie in this same slice; those 1,828 contributions are a different pair.
