Marcus Auto Leasing and the 2014 FEC election cycle

Marcus Auto Leasing crossed with 2014

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Marcus Auto Leasing and 2014 — sum to $665,900. The cell holds 31 itemized contributions and 1 unique donor. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables.

Neither the Marcus Auto Leasing hub nor the 2014 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. Thirty-one 2014 lines on one donor key is a high receipts-per-person ratio for a named auto-leasing employer. The packet counts Schedule A rows, not lease contracts. USAspending vehicle or fleet awards are a different file and are not funded by these itemized gifts. MARCUS AUTO, MARCUS LEASING, and generic AUTO DEALER or AUTO LEASING occupation strings remain other keys unless they grouped here.

1.3% of the Marcus Auto Leasing roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $51,146,275 ($51.1 million). The 2014 slice of $665,900 is about 1.3% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 98.7%. Treating 2014 as the Marcus Auto Leasing FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $51,146,275 as the denominator for the 1.3% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2014 from being folded silently into $51,146,275.

1 donor, 31 lines

Thirty-one receipts on 1 donor is a high lines-per-donor ratio: 31.0 on average. Dollars per line average about $21,481. Dollars per donor average about $665,900. That shape often appears when a small number of people give to many committees or when joint-fundraising receipts multiply Schedule A rows. The facts count the rows. They do not name the committees.

1 donor is a contributor identity, not a headcount of a payroll. Household members who reuse a workplace can appear. The Commission does not certify employment. Unitemized gifts never enter $665,900.

2014 as the cycle dimension

The 2014 election cycle hub includes every stored employer for that window. Marcus Auto Leasing is one cell in that matrix. This packet does not publish a cycle-wide denominator, so no national share is stated. Open the 2014 election cycle to drop the employer filter and Marcus Auto Leasing to drop the year.

Gifts from both years of the two-year FEC window sit in the $665,900 cell because the cycle is a two-year tag, not a single Tuesday. That mechanical fact is easy to forget when a searcher wants an election-night number. The overlay is where dates become visible. This join publishes the cycle total, the 31 contributions, the 1 unique donor, and the 1.3% share of $51,146,275.

Limits of the Marcus Auto Leasing × 2014 join

Itemized individual receipts are the universe. Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and PAC disbursements sit outside $665,900. Federal awards in other databases are different datasets. Sharing an employer string and a calendar year does not turn these gifts into contracts or grants. The page is not a motor-vehicle NAICS total and not a dealership PAC.

Correlation between an employer or occupation string and a cycle year is not causation. The records show a text match, a date window, 1 donor, and 31 contributions. MARCUS AUTO, MARCUS LEASING, and generic AUTO DEALER or AUTO LEASING occupation strings remain other keys unless they grouped here. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages.

Citing Marcus Auto Leasing and 2014 together

Start with $665,900, then Marcus Auto Leasing 2014 for rows, then the industry hub or the 2014 election cycle if a filter needs to come off. Citation template: Marcus Auto Leasing, 2014, $665,900, 31 contributions, 1 donor, 1.3% of $51,146,275, source FEC.gov. Keep neighboring spellings and occupation titles out of the total unless they grouped to this exact string.

The 1.3% share, the 1-donor count, and the $21,481 mean gift belong to this intersection. Carry them onto a successor label or a sibling occupation word and they stop being facts from this packet. This prose is a packet snapshot. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov and the live overlay control.
