  • Donors 2; contributions 23.
  • Fort Worth unfiltered $117,875,456 ($117.9 million).

  • Use all four internal links; invent none.

$17,200 at the Investor / Fort Worth intersection

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates place $17,200 at the intersection of city FORT WORTH, TX and occupation/employer grouping INVESTOR. 23 itemized receipts and 2 donors produced that total. Fort Worth's unfiltered itemized book is $117,875,456 across 309,445 contributions, so the overlap is under 0.1% of city dollars.

LobbyVault publishes the city hub, the industry hub, and this join as three different pages. Mixing them collapses the filter. A reader who wants all of Fort Worth should open the city hub. A reader who wants Investor in every city should open the industry hub. A reader who wants both filters should stay here.

About $748 per receipt and about $8,600 per donor are $17,200 divided by 23 and 2. They are not typical household contributions. They are not wages. They are not medians.

Fort Worth geography on the contribution tape

The city field is filer-entered as FORT WORTH. Texas is the state. $117,875,456 ($117.9 million) is the city-wide itemized sum. 309,445 is the line count, not unique donors for the whole city. Suburbs with other city strings are excluded. PAC and joint-fundraising addresses that typed Fort Worth can be included.

Do not treat $117,875,456 as the Texas total. Do not add $17,200 on top of $117,875,456. State-office filings and unitemized federal gifts remain outside both figures.

Investor as an exact stored string

INVESTOR matches only that spelling. Investor is the title form of the same key. Parent companies, d/b/a lines, and occupation titles that differ by a word are omitted from $17,200. 2 donors and 23 receipts follow the exact-match rule.

Donors outside Fort Worth who stored INVESTOR belong on the industry page. They are not in $17,200. All FEC ties lists other cities paired with other strings so this page is not mistaken for a national roll-up.

Keep the geography ladder straight: Fort Worth is one city key; Texas is the state roll-up; the United States is not a number in this packet. $17,200 does not climb that ladder. $117,875,456 does not climb it either. Adding $17,200 to other cities to invent a metro is outside the packet. Adding $17,200 to USAspending awards in TX is outside the packet.

Cross-dataset caution

USAspending awards in Texas are a different statute. This packet has no award dollars. Do not claim Investor donations funded federal spending in Fort Worth. Independent expenditures are also out of scope. Party and committee fields were not harvested in this packet.

Correlation is not causation. Two labels on the same receipt do not prove influence. If hubs later show different integers, the newer FEC extract controls. This snapshot is not a third official file.

Donor count 2 is harvested for the join only. The packet does not publish unique donors for all of Fort Worth, so 309,445 must not be called a donor census. Contribution count 23 is harvested for the join only. Repeat gifts are why 23 and 2 can differ. Mean about $748 per receipt and mean about $8,600 per donor stay labeled as division.

Record-keeping note

Source note copied from the packet: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by donor city and employer/industry grouping. City labels are filer-entered. Share of city dollars: under 0.1% ($17,200 of $117,875,456). City line count: 309,445.

Cycle windows are other joins. This page stays on one city and one employer string. Do not add $17,200 to $117,875,456.

Public-record voice: no sides, no motive, no advice. FEC.gov is the filing home. LobbyVault is an index of aggregates. If a later load revises $17,200, 23, 2, $117,875,456, or 309,445, the live hub and FEC.gov control. This JSON does not freeze the Commission’s database.

Questions

What did Investor filers in Fort Worth, TX report?
$17,200 in itemized individual contributions across 23 receipts from 2 donors, per FEC.gov aggregates indexed here. The city-wide book is $117,875,456 on 309,445 contributions. This page is the join, not either hub alone.
Does the Investor industry hub equal $17,200?
Only if every INVESTOR row nationwide were in Fort Worth, which this packet does not claim. $17,200 is the Fort Worth, TX slice. The industry hub is the string without that city filter. Use both pages instead of equating them.
What does 309,445 measure on the Fort Worth hub?
Itemized contribution lines storing city FORT WORTH, not unique donors for the whole city. Unique-donor counts in this packet apply to the join (2), not to the city book. Do not divide $117,875,456 by 309,445 and call it a typical Fort Worth gift without noting it is arithmetic only.
Can $17,200 be added to USAspending totals for Fort Worth?
No. Campaign receipts and federal awards are different statutes. This packet has no obligation dollars. $17,200 stays on the FEC side. Sharing a city label does not fund an award.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by donor city and employer/industry grouping. City labels are filer-entered.
