Laborer political contributions from New Mexico

How occupation Laborer meets donor state New Mexico

Occupation LABORER and donor state NM produce $46,162, 276 contributions, and 2 donors. The occupation hub is $11,579,166, 276,402 contributions, and 5,912 donors. New Mexico’s dollar share is about 0.4%; contribution share about 0.1% (276 of 276,402); donor share about 0.0% (2 of 5,912). Two New Mexico donors are about 0.03% of 5,912 national donors; 276 contributions are about 0.1% of 276,402 national rows; dollars are about 0.4% of $11,579,166.

CONSTRUCTION, LABOR, and CONSTRUCTION WORKER, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Laborer total. Do not stack LABORER with CONSTRUCTION or LABOR into a single New Mexico professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

2 New Mexico donors produced 276 contributions, about 138.0 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 46.8 rows per donor nationally (276,402 contributions from 5,912 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this New Mexico cell is about $167, against about $42 nationwide. New Mexico’s about 0.4% dollar share from two people sits inside a contribution-heavy occupation (276,402 national rows from 5,912 donors).

LABORER as a high-frequency trade string

LABORER is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a union card, a job site, or a New Mexico employer. One word on the form is the filter. The $11,579,166 national total is LABORER only. 5,912 donors produced 276,402 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 276,402 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to New Mexico (NM). Two hundred seventy-six thousand four hundred two national contributions make LABORER a high-frequency bucket. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state NM.

New Mexico as donor state

2 New Mexico donors produced 276 contributions totaling $46,162. Donor state NM is the address on the record, not proof of a New Mexico license, and not a limit to New Mexico candidates. NM is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a New Mexico job site, and not a map of which campaigns received the $46,162.

The New Mexico campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NM. This join is only LABORER. The Laborer occupation hub without New Mexico still holds about 99.6% of the $11,579,166. New Mexico’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to NM. LABORER is only this filter.

What the join is not

This page does not count union members, merge CONSTRUCTION dollars, or claim that Laborer-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. LABORER is not CONSTRUCTION even when filers meant site work. Filmmaker in New Mexico is a different occupation-state pair in this slice.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. LABORER is not a union membership extract. Donor state NM is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Local numbers are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Laborer filter

Subtract the New Mexico dollars on this page from the national LABORER occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded LABORER in every other state combined. That remainder ($11,533,004) 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 2 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 276 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $46,162 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New Mexico dollars, or only the LABORER national total, drops a key. Two donors producing 276 contributions totaling $46,162 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.
