OBAMA VICTORY FUND 2012 — 2012 cycle receipts

Obama Victory Fund 2012 joined to cycle 2012

A pac-cycle page exists because two FEC dimensions meet. One side is OBAMA VICTORY FUND 2012 (C00494740), stored as a PAC filed as FEC type N. The other is election cycle 2012. $456,014,288.38 is the receipt total on that intersection from cycle-details topCommittees. It is not the 2012 national cycle sum across every committee, and it is not OBAMA VICTORY FUND 2012's receipts in any other even-year window. Obama for America in 2012 is still C00431445 (type P). DNC Services Corporation/Democratic National Committee is C00010603.

LobbyVault does not treat this URL as a donor-detail page. No contributor names appear in the packet. The packet flags isSuperPac 0; do not relabel this cell as a Super PAC page. Source: FEC.gov committee receipts by election cycle. Campaign contributions are not USAspending obligations; this join does not claim that $456,014,288.38 funded federal awards.

C00494740 is not Obama for America

Committee C00494740 files as OBAMA VICTORY FUND 2012. Type N is a PAC filed as FEC type N. The packet flags isSuperPac 0; do not relabel this cell as a Super PAC page. The committee hub at /committees/C00494740/ mixes every cycle this committee appears in; this tie isolates 2012 only. Adding other-cycle receipts from that hub into $456,014,288.38 would break the join. The committee name repeats the year 2012. That repetition is stored text. It does not create a second cycle column. Receipts and disbursements remain the only dollar facts.

All committees at /committees/ still lists every other filer. Those rows are not this cell. Keep C00494740 on the citation so a similar public name cannot swallow this 2012 total.

Cycle 2012 besides this victory-fund PAC

Federal election cycles on FEC.gov are two-year windows tagged by the even year of the election. 2012 is that tag, not a single calendar year of January-only activity. The cycle hub at /election-cycles/2012/ lists many committees; OBAMA VICTORY FUND 2012 is one row in that ranking extract. $456,014,288.38 belongs only to this committee in that window. The 2012 cycle hub still includes Obama for America, Romney committees, and party committees as other rows.

All FEC ties at /ties/ collect other committee × cycle pairs and other LobbyVault joins. Opening a sibling tie does not change $456,014,288.38 on this URL. Correlation is not causation: a large 2012 receipt total does not prove why money moved or who sent it.

2012 PAC receipts versus disbursements

Receipts $456,014,288.38 and disbursements $454,685,458.73 are separate FEC columns. Receipts $456,014,288.38 and disbursements $454,685,458.73 sit within about one percent of each other. Neither figure is an independent-expenditure-only total unless the packet’s Super PAC flag says so. This extract does not split operating expenditures, transfers, refunds, or cash-on-hand. Receipts exceed disbursements by a modest gap. Quote both. The gap is not an allocation table to the DNC.

Mean dollars per donor cannot be computed: the packet has no contribution count and no unique-donor count. Unitemized receipts, if any, are not separated here. Quote $456,014,288.38 and $454,685,458.73 as committee-side cycle totals from FEC.gov.

Two Obama 2012 titles, two committee IDs

This join does not name donors, unique contributors, or employers. It does not convert campaign receipts into USAspending obligations. FEC reports and federal award tables are different datasets even when a famous name overlaps. No donors. No merge with the authorized presidential committee.
