2010 cycle money from Member-coded donors

Member receipts isolated to 2010

Two FEC dimensions meet here: occupation MEMBER and the 2010 election cycle. The intersection is $225,742, 225 contributions, and 145 donors. 3.0% of Member occupation dollars ($7,536,549) 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. MEMBER is an ambiguous one-word title: LLC member, board member, and club member uses can share it. Longer titles remain other keys. The join does not assign entity type, industry, or seniority. Partnership, board, and membership uses can share the same typed word. This page does not split those roles or recode MANAGING MEMBER into MEMBER.

$7,536,549 is the Member all-cycle total

On the occupation side, $7,536,549 is the Member total across cycles. Sibling labels (LLC MEMBER, BOARD MEMBER, and MANAGING MEMBER) stay on other pages. Member is not an LLC census, a board-seat file, or a union-membership roll.

All occupations lists other titles without adding them to $7,536,549. The Member donations page holds the all-cycle occupation table that $225,742 is a slice of. Dividing $225,742 by 225 receipts yields about $1,003 per line; dividing by 145 donors yields about $1,557 per person. Those ratios are arithmetic, not medians.

2010 cycle dollars versus the Member occupation total

The 2010 election cycle hub holds itemized individual receipts for every occupation coded to that even-year window. This tie keeps only Member. $225,742 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.

225 contributions from 145 donors is closer to one-to-two itemized gifts per person inside this cycle filter, still not a headcount of the occupation. About 1.6 itemized rows per donor is a filing ratio. Mean per receipt about $1,003; mean per donor about $1,557. 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 $225,742. Three numbers define the Member × 2010 cell: dollars $225,742, contribution rows 225, unique donors 145. Share of occupation dollars is 3.0% of $7,536,549.

Public-record limits for Member in 2010

Matching Member with 2010 does not measure influence, does not assign party, and does not say Member donors caused an electoral result. Correlation between an occupation string and a cycle is not causation. The table is also not an LLC census, a board-seat file, or a union-membership roll.

Itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov only. Independent expenditures, unitemized gifts, and state-office campaigns are excluded. Occupation labels are filer-entered. MEMBER is an ambiguous one-word title: LLC member, board member, and club member uses can share it. Longer titles remain other keys. The join does not assign entity type, industry, or seniority. Campaign gifts and federal awards remain separate public records. This page does not claim that $225,742 funded USAspending obligations. If a reader only needs the occupation, the Member donations hub is $7,536,549; the 2010 election cycle hub is the even-year inventory across titles. Do not add those hubs together.

Linked Member and 2010 tables

Member donations holds the $7,536,549 occupation total. The 2010 election cycle page holds every occupation in that window, not only Member. All occupations places MEMBER beside other titles without merging sibling strings (LLC MEMBER, BOARD MEMBER, and MANAGING MEMBER). All FEC ties lists other occupation-cycle pairs so $225,742 is not added to a different year.

Use the occupation hub for all-cycle Member dollars ($7,536,549). Use the 2010 cycle hub for the even-year window across titles. Use this tie for the intersection only: $225,742, 225 contributions, 145 donors, 3.0% of occupation dollars. Those four internal links are the only hrefs this copy may use. Keep MEMBER 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 $225,742.

Member 2010 versus other LobbyVault cuts

Occupation-by-state joins for Member are different pages and different dollars. This tie is occupation-by-cycle. $225,742 is not a state total and not a committee total.

All FEC ties is the inventory for those other pairs. All occupations is the inventory for titles. Neither page should be summed into $225,742.

Questions

How much did Member-labeled donors give in 2010?

The Member grouping’s 2010 cell is $225,742 in itemized individual contributions, from 225 contributions and 145 donors, per FEC.gov aggregates. That is the occupation-cycle join, not a PAC total and not the $7,536,549 all-cycle occupation total.

Are these all LLC members?

Not necessarily. MEMBER is the occupation string as typed. FEC aggregates do not encode entity type. The 2010 cycle filter on Member is $225,742, 225 contributions, and 145 donors. The occupation total across cycles is $7,536,549. Labels are filer-entered on FEC.gov itemized receipts.

What share of Member FEC money fell in 2010?

About 3.0%. $225,742 divided by $7,536,549 is the 2010 cell’s share of the lifetime occupation bucket. Other cycles hold about 97.0% ($7,310,807) on the occupation hub. See the Member occupation hub for other cycles and the 2010 cycle hub for other strings.

Does Member 2010 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. $225,742 is itemized receipts tagged MEMBER in 2010, not an obligation total. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
