Northwest Excavating and the 2014 FEC cycle

2014 filtered to Northwest Excavating

Apply the Northwest Excavating filter to the 2014 election cycle and the remaining money is $314,996. FEC.gov itemized that amount across 44 contributions and 7 donors. The overlay at the cycle path lists the rows; this file explains the relationship.

Northwest Excavating is construction employer text as filed. It is not NAICS. It is not a donor biography. 7 unique donors matched the stored string in 2014. Seven unique donor identities produced 44 itemized lines. That is a Schedule A identity count, not a headcount of a construction crew and not a named-person list. Neighboring stored labels include NW EXCAVATING, NORTHWEST EXCAVATION, NORTHWEST EXCAVATING INC, and named construction affiliates. LobbyVault does not merge those strings into $314,996. Repeat gifts can raise 44 contributions without raising the donor count at the same pace.

The all-cycle Northwest Excavating total of $3,864,612 still includes other windows. Citing $3,864,612 as if it were 2014 would overstate this cell. Citing the 2014 hub as if it were Northwest Excavating-only would overstate the year.

8.2% in 2014, 91.8% elsewhere

8.2% of stored Northwest Excavating money is tagged 2014 ($314,996). 91.8% is not ($3,549,616). Both percentages use $3,864,612 as the base. Changing the string changes the base.

The industry hub holds the year-by-year index. This tie isolates 2014 so $3,864,612 is not mistaken for a two-year number. Lifetime Northwest Excavating storage is $3,864,612. Subtract the 2014 cell and $3,549,616 remains. That remainder is 91.8% of the grouping. 8.2% is the 2014 share. Both percentages use packet facts only.

Itemized count versus unique donors

Contribution count (44) and donor count (7) measure different things. The first counts itemized receipts; the second counts distinct identities in this aggregate. $314,996 is their dollar sum. The donor count is 7, so a small set of identities accounts for the 44 lines; this file still does not name them.

If a searcher wants names, the overlay is the next stop. This JSON file reports 7 donors without listing them. Inventing names would violate the packet contract. Contributor identities (7) are not a headcount of a firm or a profession. Repeat itemized gifts explain 44 lines from fewer identities. About 6.3 lines per donor is the mean on this packet.

Dropping the Northwest Excavating filter

Dropping the Northwest Excavating filter returns the reader to the 2014 election cycle index. That index is not $314,996. Adding the filter back recovers this cell: 44 contributions, 7 donors, $314,996.

No cycle-wide denominator is in the packet, so Northwest Excavating cannot be ranked as a percent of 2014 national itemized giving. 8.2% remains a share of $3,864,612 only. 2014 is a midterm even-year window on FEC.gov. Open the 2014 election cycle to see every grouping that year. This file does not copy that list. Northwest Excavating remains one cell: $314,996, 44 contributions, 7 donors.

Self-reported fields and missing tables

Missing from the packet: recipient names, party split, unitemized totals, PAC disbursements, and any USAspending figure. Present: $314,996, 44 contributions, 7 donors, $3,864,612 lifetime, cycle 2014, string NORTHWEST EXCAVATING.

Self-reported fields create split spellings. Researchers who need a firm-level view must inspect neighboring keys on the industry index rather than assume $3,864,612 is complete for a legal entity. Federal award files can reuse famous names. Those files are not FEC itemized individual contributions. This join does not claim that $314,996 funded contracts or grants.

What to carry forward from this packet

Carry forward $314,996, 44, 7, 8.2%, $3,864,612, and the string NORTHWEST EXCAVATING. Leave behind invented recipients, party shares, and contract dollars. The source note is FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by employer/industry grouping and election cycle.

$7,159 per contribution and $44,999 per donor are derived means. Label them as such. Construction employer text as filed remains the right description of the grouping. If live hubs disagree with $314,996, the overlay and FEC.gov control. This snapshot recorded 44 contributions and 7 donors for NORTHWEST EXCAVATING in 2014. Restating the join without new numbers: Northwest Excavating in 2014 is $314,996 from 44 itemized individual contributions and 7 unique donors on FEC.gov. The same string stores $3,864,612 across cycles, so 2014 is about 8.2% and other windows hold $3,549,616 (91.8%). The grouping is construction employer text as filed, not a contractors PAC, a construction NAICS rollup, or a named-owner biography.
