Lawyer political contributions from Maryland

Lawyer and Maryland as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation LAWYER and donor state MD produce $4,000,732, 14,107 contributions, and 704 donors. The occupation hub is $105,321,940, 362,611 contributions, and 19,031 donors. Maryland’s dollar share is about 3.8%; contribution share about 3.9% (14,107 of 362,611); donor share about 3.7% (704 of 19,031).

ATTORNEY and ATTORNEY/LAWYER, if stored separately, are other keys. Do not add those cells to Lawyer. Do not stack sibling titles into a single Maryland professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

704 Maryland donors produced 14,107 contributions, about 20.0 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 19.1 rows per donor nationally (362,611 contributions from 19,031 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this Maryland cell is about $284, against about $290 nationwide.

LAWYER as a filer-entered occupation string

LAWYER is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a license, a campus, or an employer. The $105,321,940 national total is LAWYER only. 19,031 donors produced 362,611 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 362,611 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Maryland (MD). This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state MD.

Maryland on the state side

704 Maryland donors produced 14,107 contributions totaling $4,000,732. Donor state MD is the address on the record, not proof of a Maryland license, and not a limit to Maryland candidates. MD is the address on the itemized record, not a map of which campaigns received the $4,000,732.

The Maryland campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to MD. This join is only LAWYER. The Lawyer occupation hub without Maryland still holds about 96.2% of the $105,321,940. Maryland’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to MD. LAWYER is only this filter.

What the join does not show

A 3.8% dollar share in Maryland does not rank the state as more or less political than others. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards. The overlap is descriptive.

Lawyer donations and Maryland campaign finance are the hub pages. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling joins. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. Mean gift $284 is $4,000,732 divided by 14,107 lines in this state cell. Repeat the join without adding fields the packet does not publish. The overlay and occupation hubs remain the places for one-sided totals. This tie page quotes packet facts only. Independent expenditures stay outside the cell. Filer-entered occupation strings are not payroll titles. Committee identifiers on the itemized line are the recipient keys used here. Readers who need a person-level roster will not find names on this page. USAspending.gov is a different ledger from FEC.gov individual contributions. All occupations and All FEC ties remain the indexes for sibling joins. Cite the source note exactly as copied from the packet. Do not convert a contribution count into a unique-person census. Do not treat a committee overlay as this occupation’s only destination. Dollar figures first, then the two keys that produced them. The canonical path is a ties URL, not a donor-detail URL. Unitemized gifts are outside the itemized aggregate quoted here. Cycle stacking can raise line counts without raising unique people. Nearby job titles belong on their own occupation hubs if stored as other strings. A mean gift is dollars divided by itemized lines, not a typical check. Public records describe overlap; they do not assign motive. Keep the committee ID next to the committee name whenever the cell is quoted. Repeat the join without adding fields the packet does not publish. The overlay and occupation hubs remain the places for one-sided totals. This tie page quotes packet facts only.
