Lawyer and Pennsylvania against the national LAWYER book

Donor state PA plus occupation LAWYER is the join. Pennsylvania dollars are $3,700,240. National dollars are $105,321,940. Contribution shares: 3.0% (10,859 of 362,611). Donor shares: 3.7% (709 of 19,031). Ten thousand eight hundred fifty-nine contributions from 709 donors describes repeat itemized rows, not 10,859 unique Pennsylvania lawyers.

Do not stack LAWYER with ATTORNEY, COUNSEL, and GENERAL COUNSEL into a single Pennsylvania professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs. 709 Pennsylvania donors produced 10,859 contributions, about 15.3 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 19.1 rows per donor nationally. The arithmetic mean gift in this Pennsylvania cell is about $341, against about $290 nationwide.

A $105 million Lawyer grouping, Pennsylvania slice only

LAWYER is a filer-entered string. ATTORNEY, if typed, sits in another hub even when the filer holds a Pennsylvania law license. 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 Pennsylvania (PA).

709 Pennsylvania donors produced 10,859 contributions totaling $3,700,240. Donor state PA is the address on the record, not proof of a Pennsylvania license, and not a limit to Pennsylvania candidates. The leftover $101,621,700 is Lawyer-coded money from every other state combined on this extract.

Seven hundred nine Pennsylvania Lawyer donors

The Pennsylvania campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to PA. This join is only LAWYER. Donor state PA is the address on the record, not proof of a Pennsylvania bar admission, and not a limit to Pennsylvania candidates. The Lawyer occupation hub without Pennsylvania still holds 96.5% of the $105,321,940.

Lawyer donations holds the $105,321,940 national occupation total. Pennsylvania 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.

Bar numbers, Florida as a sibling, and awards

This page does not treat Pennsylvania Lawyer dollars as a Pennsylvania bar census or as ATTORNEY. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. LAWYER is not a Pennsylvania attorney-license file. Donor state PA is not recipient geography. Do not rank Pennsylvania against Florida as a more political lawyer state. Both cells are descriptive joins.

Subtract the Pennsylvania dollars on this page from the national LAWYER occupation total and the difference is $101,621,700 still coded LAWYER in every other state combined. That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. A unique-donor count of 709 is not a person-level audit. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join.
