Jackson, MS contributions to ACTBLUE (C00401224)

$410,606 as a two-field overlap

This page is a JOIN. One side is the filer-entered city JACKSON in Mississippi. The other side is ACTBLUE on C00401224. $410,606 is what remains after both filters. Opening only the Jackson, MS hub restates $50,019,411. Opening only the committee hub restates every city that gave to C00401224. Adding those hubs together double-counts.

City labels are filer-entered. JACKSON is the stored string, not a Census place recode and not a metro-area roll-up. A neighboring municipality is another hub. A JACKSON line to a different committee ID sits in the leftover $49,608,805, not in $410,606. JACKSON with state MS is not Jackson, Tennessee or other Jackson keys. ACTBLUE received $410,606 from the Mississippi city string against a $50,019,411 book. Other Mississippi city keys are other hubs.

JACKSON without the C00401224 filter

Take the committee filter off and JACKSON still shows $50,019,411 itemized. $410,606 is the slice tagged to C00401224. Open the Jackson, MS hub for the remainder $49,608,805. Do not subtract by hand from a different extract dated on another night.

Jackson is displayed for readers; JACKSON is the grouping key. Titles use Jackson, MS. The leftover $49,608,805 is $50,019,411 minus $410,606 on this extract only. The Mississippi hub is a different roll-up.

Reading the ACTBLUE label

C00401224 is disclosed as ACTBLUE. This page does not list independent expenditures the committee made, operating expenditures it paid, or earmark destinations beyond the labeled recipient. $410,606 is itemized individual receipts storing city JACKSON and committee C00401224. Other cities giving to ACTBLUE appear on the committee hub. Adding them here would break the city filter.

Long or truncated FEC names stay as stored. DBA clauses, AKA clauses, slashes, and parentheticals are part of the label on C00401224. Short titles on this page still point at that ID. Do not invent a cleaner legal name.

0.82% is a share, not a ranking

0.82% of $50,019,411 is $410,606 to ACTBLUE (C00401224). That percentage describes overlap of two FEC groupings, not a finding that residents of Jackson, MS as a group preferred this committee. Most of the $50,019,411 city book went to other committees. Even when 0.82% is a visible slice, the slice is still only the C00401224 filter.

The leftover $49,608,805 under the JACKSON city string went to other committees. The Jackson, MS hub holds that remainder. The ACTBLUE page holds receipts whose city field did not store JACKSON. Do not stack this cell with another city's gifts to C00401224; each join is its own filter.

Rows that never enter $410,606

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $410,606. Mississippi state-office filings sit outside it. Independent expenditures are a different FEC file; the source note on this packet says these aggregates are not independent expenditures. City labels are filer-entered. PAC or joint-fundraising addresses that stored this city string follow the same rule as household streets.

Do not read $410,606 as proof that Jackson, MS funded ACTBLUE as a municipal act, or that the committee spent the money in Mississippi. The join is two fields. Correlation is not causation. FEC individual contributions are not USAspending awards. This packet has no obligation dollars and no award counts. Do not add $410,606 to federal spending in Mississippi.

Doors out of the Jackson, MS × C00401224 page

Internal links go to Jackson, MS, ACTBLUE, Mississippi campaign finance, and All FEC ties. Use those four doors. The city page holds the $50,019,411 book and the committees that received the leftover $49,608,805. The committee page holds C00401224 receipts from every city. All FEC ties collects neighboring pairs without mixing independent expenditures into this cell.

Researchers citing the join should keep both nouns in the sentence: Jackson, MS and ACTBLUE (C00401224). Dropping either noun turns this page into a restatement of a hub it is not. $410,606 is the only overlap this extract published. A later amendment wave can move a dollar without this file rewriting itself. Treat the live LobbyVault hub as newer than this packet snapshot. Cite $410,606, $50,019,411, 0.82%, leftover $49,608,805, and C00401224.

Questions

What is the Jackson × ACTBLUE FEC total?

Itemized FEC individual contributions storing city JACKSON and recipient ACTBLUE (C00401224) total $410,606 in this extract. That is the join, not Jackson, MS's all-committee book of $50,019,411. These figures are not independent expenditures. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Is JACKSON merged with nearby cities?

No. JACKSON is the exact stored city string with state MS. Other spellings, abbreviations, and neighboring places are other keys and are omitted from $410,606. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a Census place. Use the Jackson, MS hub for the all-committee book of $50,019,411.

How much of the $50M Jackson book is C00401224?

$410,606 is 0.82% of the $50,019,411 Jackson, MS city book. The leftover $49,608,805 went to other committees under the same city string. Quote both dollars and the committee ID C00401224. Do not upgrade 0.82% into a ranking of civic preference.

Do Jackson donations to ACTBLUE fund USAspending awards?

No. The series is FEC individual contributions. USAspending awards are a different dataset. This packet publishes no obligation dollars. Geography on a contribution line does not convert the gift into a federal award in Mississippi.
