Letter Carrier money in the 2014 FEC cycle

Letter Carrier as occupation, cycle as the other filter

Two FEC dimensions meet here: occupation LETTER CARRIER and the 2014 election cycle. The intersection is $350,020 ($350,020), 913 contributions, and 411 donors. 6.0% of Letter Carrier occupation dollars ($5,791,591) fall in 2014. 2014 is a later high-row postal-title cell: 913 receipts from 411 donors, a midterm window on the same LETTER CARRIER string that also has a denser 2008 join.

Letter Carrier is a two-word postal title as typed, not an agency headcount. Nearby strings — POSTAL WORKER, MAIL CARRIER, POSTAL CARRIER, and USPS — stay on other pages. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $350,020 or $5,791,591. Postal Worker and Mail Carrier, if stored, remain other occupation keys. The FEC file does not verify a USPS appointment, a craft, or a union card.

The LETTER CARRIER string across cycles

On the occupation side, $5,791,591 ($5.8 million) is the Letter Carrier total across cycles. The 2014 cell is 6.0% of that roll; the remaining $5,441,571 sits in other years on the occupation hub and is not itemized by year on this packet. Letter Carrier is not a USPS employment file and not a route-density ranking. Letter Carrier is not a USPS payroll extract, an NALC membership roll, or a route census.

Open Letter Carrier donations for the $5,791,591 roll. Open the 2014 election cycle hub for every occupation in that window. All occupations and All FEC ties place this pair beside other occupation-cycle pages without combining dollar figures. Occupation labels are filer-entered on itemized individual receipts.

Receipts and donor keys inside this cycle cell

Inside the 2014 cell, 913 itemized contributions map to 411 donors. That is about 2.2 receipts per donor in the join — a repeat-gift ratio, not a unique-person survey of everyone who holds a similar job. Dollars per receipt average about $383; dollars per donor average about $852. Averages hide large and small lines sitting in the same total.

2014 is a midterm FEC clock (House and Senate contests without a presidential ticket on the same ballot). This packet does not split dollars by chamber, primary versus general, or party. The 2014 election cycle hub shows the cycle’s full occupation mix; this page shows only the Letter Carrier row. 411 donors is a disclosure count for this key in 2014, not a turnout figure. Unitemized federal gifts never enter $350,020.

Two dollar columns, one occupation and one year

Keep $350,020 attached to 2014 and $5,791,591 attached to the occupation string. Adding them would double-count the 2014 dollars that already sit inside the occupation total. Subtracting them does not yield “all other cycles”; it only yields a remainder ($5,441,571) that this packet does not itemize by year.

Cite FEC.gov. Individual contributions are not PAC independent expenditures and not lobbying registrations. Nothing in the join says donations paid for a federal award or a USAspending obligation. Quote $350,020 with both nouns: Letter Carrier and 2014.

What a Letter Carrier cycle join cannot claim

Matching Letter Carrier with 2014 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 payroll extract, an NALC membership roll, or a route census.

Itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov only. Independent expenditures, unitemized gifts, and state-office campaigns are excluded. A person who wrote a nearby title is not in $350,020. A person who wrote this string is in it even if the day job differs. LobbyVault does not audit licenses. The public record is the string plus the dollars.

Linked letter-carrier hub, cycle hub, and sibling titles

Letter Carrier donations holds the $5,791,591 occupation total. The 2014 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 (POSTAL WORKER, MAIL CARRIER, POSTAL CARRIER, and USPS). All FEC ties lists other occupation-cycle pairs so $350,020 is not added to a different year.

Use the occupation hub for all-cycle Letter Carrier dollars ($5,791,591). Use the 2014 cycle hub for the even-year window across titles. Use this tie for the intersection only: $350,020, 913 contributions, 411 donors, 6.0% of occupation dollars. Those four internal links are the only hrefs this copy may use. Amended individual contribution reports can move $350,020; a later harvest of the same occupation string can move $5,791,591. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved.

Questions

How much did Letter Carrier-labeled donors give in 2014?

The Letter Carrier grouping’s 2014 cell is $350,020 in itemized individual contributions, from 913 contributions and 411 donors, per FEC.gov aggregates. That is the occupation-cycle join, not a PAC total and not the $5,791,591 all-cycle occupation total.

Does Letter Carrier mean current USPS employees?

Occupation is LETTER CARRIER. The FEC file does not check a USPS payroll. Postal Worker and Mail Carrier are other keys if filers used those words. This join does not recode those titles into LETTER CARRIER or confirm a current route or a union local.

What share of Letter Carrier FEC money fell in 2014?

About 6.0%. $350,020 divided by $5,791,591 is the 2014 cell’s share of the lifetime occupation bucket. Other cycles hold about $5,441,571 on the occupation hub. See the Letter Carrier occupation hub for other cycles and the 2014 cycle hub for other strings.

Does Letter Carrier 2014 money fund federal awards?

No. These figures are FEC individual contribution aggregates. Federal awards are published by USAspending. This page does not claim that campaign gifts funded those awards. $350,020 is itemized receipts tagged LETTER CARRIER in 2014, not an obligation total. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
