Management occupation money in the 2012 FEC cycle

Management as occupation, 2012 as cycle

Two keys define this page. One is the occupation string MANAGEMENT. The other is the 2012 federal election cycle. The match is $3,656,092, built from 2,366 contributions and 1,160 unique donors. Drop either key and the number changes. About 12% of the occupation stack in a presidential year is a noticeable chapter on a mid-size donor roster. Mean dollars per donor sit above high-count trades and below the most concentrated finance titles in this slice.

Average contribution is about $1,545; average per donor is about $3,152. Those means are arithmetic on the 2012 cell only. The packet has no median, no party split, and no employer table. About 2.0 itemized rows per donor is a filing ratio, not a headcount of unique humans behind every spelling variant.

A one-word bucket, not a job family

MANAGEMENT is a vague occupation string. MANAGER, GENERAL MANAGER, and EXECUTIVE, if used, sit in other hubs. The FEC does not map the word onto a Standard Occupational Classification code.

$30,941,568 is every cycle combined for MANAGEMENT. $3,656,092 in 2012 is about 11.8% of that stack. Other windows hold about 88.2% ($27,285,476). A cycle cell at 11.8% is a chapter, not the occupation’s full FEC history. MANAGER, GENERAL MANAGER, and EXECUTIVE are other occupation pages if stored separately. Combining them without naming each source total mixes keys.

1,160 donors and 2,366 gifts in 2012

1,160 unique donors against 2,366 contributions implies some repeat giving inside the 2012 window. Primaries, generals, and multiple committees all add rows. One person can appear more than once if addresses or names vary. Unitemized gifts never carry an occupation code, so they never enter $3,656,092.

A title on a form is not an employment verification. People using a household occupation, a retired title, or a short status word can all land in the same cell. LobbyVault does not recode MANAGEMENT into a NAICS industry or a licensing roster. Recipients of the campaign gifts live on the occupation hub and the 2012 cycle hub.

About 11.8% of a $30.9 million occupation stack

11.8% is $3,656,092 divided by $30,941,568. Reading only 2012 understates the parent occupation book. Reading only the parent hides that this cycle’s share is 11.8%. The leftover outside 2012 is $27,285,476. Those other-cycle dollars are not itemized on this relationship page.

Presidential-year and midterm windows are different FEC two-year clocks. This page cites cycle 2012 only. A later or earlier cell for the same occupation string is a different join even when the occupation total $30,941,568 is shared.

What a Management–2012 join cannot claim

This page does not identify employers or departments. It does not rank managers as a political class. Recipients live on the occupation and cycle hubs.

The page does not identify employers, does not convert occupation text into a corporate gift, and does not link FEC receipts to USAspending obligations. Campaign gifts and federal awards remain separate public records. Correlation between a job title and a cycle total is not causation. Cite $3,656,092, 2,366 contributions, and 1,160 donors for Management in 2012. Cite $30,941,568 for the all-cycle occupation grouping. Name FEC.gov.

Related Management and 2012 tables

Management donations is the occupation hub behind $30,941,568. The 2012 election cycle page is the cycle census across occupations. All occupations lists other strings. All FEC ties collects other occupation-cycle pairs from the same two fields. Live hubs override this snapshot. If a hub disagrees with $3,656,092, 2,366 gifts, or 1,160 donor IDs, the hub and FEC.gov control.

Keep the occupation string MANAGEMENT attached to $3,656,092 whenever the sentence also names cycle 2012. Keep 2,366 contributions and 1,160 donors in the same citation so readers can see whether Management in 2012 is a high-volume stack or a concentrated roster. The all-cycle occupation total $30,941,568 answers a different question: every window combined, not this two-year clock. Unitemized receipts, independent expenditures, and state-office campaigns sit outside this extract. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov is the source.

Questions

How much did Management-labeled donors give in 2012?

The Management grouping’s 2012 cell is $3,656,092 in itemized individual contributions, from 2,366 contributions and 1,160 donors, per FEC.gov aggregates. That is the occupation-cycle join, not a PAC total and not the $30,941,568 all-cycle occupation total.

Does Management include every manager title?

No. This cell is the self-reported string MANAGEMENT matched to cycle 2012. MANAGER, GENERAL MANAGER, and EXECUTIVE are other keys if stored separately. The FEC does not verify that the title matches a license or payroll. See the Management occupation hub for other cycles and the 2012 cycle hub for other strings.

What share of Management FEC money fell in 2012?

About 11.8%. $3,656,092 divided by $30,941,568 is the 2012 cell’s share of the lifetime occupation bucket. Other cycles hold about 88.2% ($27,285,476) on the occupation hub. See the Management occupation hub for other cycles and the 2012 cycle hub for other strings.

Is this an employer-industry total?

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. $3,656,092 is itemized receipts tagged MANAGEMENT in 2012, not an obligation total. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Unitemized gifts never enter this cell. FEC.gov is the source.
