JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT — 2008 cycle receipts

JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT is one axis; 2008 is the other

A pac-cycle page is not a restatement of JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT and not a restatement of 2008. It is the cell where they meet: $62,713,069.96 receipts, $58,279,645.83 disbursements. Source note: FEC.gov committee receipts by election cycle from cycle-details topCommittees. Committee pages, not donor pages.

On the committee side, JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT is presidential authorized committee (type P) in 2008. On the cycle side, 2008 is a presidential-year FEC two-year window. Filings dated in either year of that window sit in these cycle totals as stored.

JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT is the authorized-committee string on C00431205. Cycle 2008 is the presidential-year window for that ID. Leaving either axis off the citation misstates the record. The committee hub lacks a 2008-only claim. The 2008 hub lacks a JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT-only claim. This page has both.

C00431205 as the identifier

Repeat the identifier: C00431205. Repeat the name: JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT. Repeat the year: 2008. Those three tokens are the citation. $62,713,069.96 and $58,279,645.83 are the two dollar facts.

Amended reports can move either integer. Independent expenditures by other committees stay outside the cell. USAspending.gov is a different ledger from FEC.gov committee receipts.

Filings inside the 2008 window

Repeat filings, amendments, and transfers inside the 2008 window can sit inside $62,713,069.96 without this page listing each instrument. Volume of filings is unpublished. Dollars are published.

JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT is the authorized-committee string on C00431205. Cycle 2008 is the presidential-year window for that ID. The cycle overlay is the place for one-sided year questions. This tie is the both-filters question.

Amendments can move $62,713,069.96 or $58,279,645.83

Amended reports can move $62,713,069.96 or $58,279,645.83 or both. This packet is a snapshot from cycle-details topCommittees. The committee overlay is the live parent.

Receipts $62,713,069.96 exceed disbursements $58,279,645.83 by $4,433,424.13. That difference is not cash on hand, not debts owed, and not a prediction. Repeat the join in one line: committee C00431205 ∩ cycle 2008 = $62,713,069.96 receipts and $58,279,645.83 disbursements.

Public records, not accusations

Nonpartisan reading: $62,713,069.96 and $58,279,645.83 are FEC.gov numbers. They are not accusations, not endorsements, and not medical or voting advice. JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT × 2008 is the pair.

Keep the source note exactly as copied from the packet. Dollar figures first, then the two keys that produced them.

Repeating the join without extra fields

Repeat the join without adding fields the packet does not publish. The committee and cycle hubs remain the places for one-sided totals. This tie page quotes packet facts only.

Public records describe overlap; they do not assign motive. Receipts $62,713,069.96 exceed disbursements $58,279,645.83 by $4,433,424.13. That difference is not cash on hand, not debts owed, and not a prediction. Source remains FEC.gov. Primary drop-out dates, running-mate rumors, and later legal cases are not packet facts. Receipts and disbursements are. Type P stays presidential class even after a campaign ends inside the window.

Read the four internal links as parents, not as extra dollars. JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT is the committee overlay for C00431205. The 2008 election cycle is the year overlay without a JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT filter. All committees is the ID index. All FEC ties is the two-key index. None of those pages should be added into $62,713,069.96 or $58,279,645.83. The harvested cell is already the overlap.

A researcher quoting this join in one sentence can use: JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT, committee C00431205, FEC type P (presidential authorized committee (FEC type P)), isSuperPac 0, cycle 2008 (a presidential-year FEC two-year window), receipts $62,713,069.96, disbursements $58,279,645.83. That sentence uses only packet facts. It still names no donors, no ad targets, no cash on hand, and no USAspending awards. If any of those fields is required, this JSON file is the wrong object.

Committee-cycle pages exist because topCommittees inside cycle-details is a join table. JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT can appear in more than one even-year window; 2008 can contain thousands of other committees. This file isolates one pair. Primary drop-out dates, running-mate rumors, and later legal cases are not packet facts. Receipts and disbursements are. Type P stays presidential class even after a campaign ends inside the window. Amended filings after harvest can move $62,713,069.96 or $58,279,645.83; prefer the live overlay when the table and this snapshot disagree.
