Letter Carrier receipts isolated to 2010
Two FEC dimensions meet here: occupation LETTER CARRIER and the 2010 election cycle. The intersection is $246,152, 699 contributions, and 362 donors. 4.3% of Letter Carrier occupation dollars ($5,791,591) fall in 2010.
2010 is an even-year federal cycle labeled 2010 on FEC.gov, a midterm FEC window in itemized receipts. This page does not add later cycles into the 2010 dollars. LETTER CARRIER is the two-word job title as typed. MAIL CARRIER and POSTAL WORKER remain other keys. The join does not verify USPS employment, route assignment, or union membership in the cycle. City carrier, rural carrier, and clerk titles can appear under other spellings. This cell keeps LETTER CARRIER and does not recode those siblings.
$5,791,591 is the Letter Carrier all-cycle total
On the occupation side, $5,791,591 is the Letter Carrier total across cycles. Sibling labels (MAIL CARRIER, POSTAL WORKER, and USPS) stay on other pages. Letter Carrier is not a USPS headcount, an NALC independent-expenditure total, or a postal PAC.
All occupations lists other titles without adding them to $5,791,591. The Letter Carrier donations page holds the all-cycle occupation table that $246,152 is a slice of. Dividing $246,152 by 699 receipts yields about $352 per line; dividing by 362 donors yields about $680 per person. Those ratios are arithmetic, not medians.
2010 cycle dollars versus the Letter Carrier occupation total
The 2010 election cycle hub holds itemized individual receipts for every occupation coded to that even-year window. This tie keeps only Letter Carrier. $246,152 is therefore not a cycle-wide total. FEC.gov labels this even-year federal window 2010. A midterm FEC window. It is not a 2008 presidential window and not a 2012 presidential cycle.
699 contributions from 362 donors is moderate repeat itemization inside the cycle filter. About 1.9 itemized rows per donor is a filing ratio. Mean per receipt about $352; mean per donor about $680. Those means are arithmetic on the 2010 cell only. The packet has no median, no party split, and no employer table. Unitemized federal gifts never enter $246,152. Three numbers define the Letter Carrier × 2010 cell: dollars $246,152, contribution rows 699, unique donors 362. Share of occupation dollars is 4.3% of $5,791,591.
Public-record limits for Letter Carrier in 2010
Matching Letter Carrier with 2010 does not measure influence, does not assign party, and does not say Letter Carrier donors caused an electoral result. Correlation between an occupation string and a cycle is not causation. The table is also not a USPS headcount, an NALC independent-expenditure total, or a postal PAC.
Itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov only. Independent expenditures, unitemized gifts, and state-office campaigns are excluded. Occupation labels are filer-entered. LETTER CARRIER is the two-word job title as typed. MAIL CARRIER and POSTAL WORKER remain other keys. The join does not verify USPS employment, route assignment, or union membership in the cycle. Campaign gifts and federal awards remain separate public records. This page does not claim that $246,152 funded USAspending obligations. If a reader only needs the occupation, the Letter Carrier donations hub is $5,791,591; the 2010 election cycle hub is the even-year inventory across titles. Do not add those hubs together.
Linked Letter Carrier and 2010 tables
Letter Carrier donations holds the $5,791,591 occupation total. The 2010 election cycle page holds every occupation in that window, not only Letter Carrier. All occupations places LETTER CARRIER beside other titles without merging sibling strings (MAIL CARRIER, POSTAL WORKER, and USPS). All FEC ties lists other occupation-cycle pairs so $246,152 is not added to a different year.
Use the occupation hub for all-cycle Letter Carrier dollars ($5,791,591). Use the 2010 cycle hub for the even-year window across titles. Use this tie for the intersection only: $246,152, 699 contributions, 362 donors, 4.3% of occupation dollars. Those four internal links are the only hrefs this copy may use. Keep LETTER CARRIER as the occupation key and 2010 as the cycle key when joining files. FEC.gov remains the controlling source if a later extract disagrees with $246,152.
