Donors in Cincinnati, OH to RNC REPUBLICAN NATIONAL STATE ELECTIONS COMMITTEE

How Cincinnati, OH meets RNC State Elections on the FEC tape

$1,479,750 is the overlap of two keys: contributor city CINCINNATI with state OH, and recipient committee C60000015 disclosed as RNC REPUBLICAN NATIONAL STATE ELECTIONS COMMITTEE. LobbyVault keeps a Cincinnati, OH city hub and a committee hub for RNC State Elections. Neither hub is this join. The city hub is every committee that received itemized gifts storing this city string. The committee hub is every city that gave to C60000015. This page is only both filters at once.

RNC REPUBLICAN NATIONAL STATE ELECTIONS COMMITTEE is the stored name on C60000015. The join does not name unique donors, contribution counts, or cycles. Do not invent a headcount from $1,479,750. Repeat gifts, joint fundraising, and conduit memo entries can sit inside a city×committee total without this packet splitting them.

City labels are filer-entered. CINCINNATI is the stored string, not a Census place recode and not a metro-area roll-up. A donor who stored a neighboring city is on another hub. A donor who stored CINCINNATI and a different committee ID is in the leftover $198,382,677 of the city book, not in $1,479,750.

The Cincinnati, OH side of the RNC State Elections join

Cincinnati, OH’s all-committee itemized book in this extract is $199,862,427. $1,479,750 is 0.74% of Cincinnati, OH’s $199,862,427 all-committee book. A small share is expected when one committee is compared with every other recipient on the city tape. The leftover $198,382,677 went to other committees under the same city string, or sits outside this recipient filter. Open the Cincinnati, OH hub for that remainder; do not subtract by hand from a different extract.

The stored city sits in Ohio. Neighboring municipalities are not absorbed into CINCINNATI. Ohio campaign-finance pages include other cities. Do not add $1,479,750 to the state hub; the state extract already contains these rows when the same tape is used. All FEC ties lists other city-committee pages. None of them converts $1,479,750 into spending by Cincinnati, OH candidates or into independent expenditures by RNC State Elections.

RNC REPUBLICAN NATIONAL STATE ELECTIONS COMMITTEE (C60000015) as the recipient key

C60000015 is disclosed as RNC REPUBLICAN NATIONAL STATE ELECTIONS COMMITTEE. This page does not list independent expenditures the committee made, operating expenditures it paid, or earmark destinations beyond the labeled recipient. $1,479,750 is itemized individual receipts storing city CINCINNATI and committee C60000015. Other cities giving to RNC State Elections appear on the committee hub. Adding them here would break the city filter.

Quote the committee with its FEC ID so a similarly named filing is not swapped in. RNC State Elections on another ID is a different page. This URL is Cincinnati, OH × C60000015, not Ohio × C60000015 and not every spelling of CINCINNATI. If the overlay at the committee path disagrees with $1,479,750, the overlay and FEC.gov control.

Share of the Cincinnati, OH book

0.74% of $199,862,427 is $1,479,750 to RNC REPUBLICAN NATIONAL STATE ELECTIONS COMMITTEE (C60000015). That percentage describes overlap of two FEC groupings, not a finding that residents of Cincinnati, OH as a group preferred this committee. Most of the $199,862,427 city book went to other committees unless 0.74% is read as a large slice — even then, the slice is still only the C60000015 filter.

The leftover $198,382,677 under the CINCINNATI city string went to other committees. The Cincinnati, OH hub holds that remainder. The RNC State Elections page holds receipts whose city field did not store CINCINNATI. Do not stack this cell with another city’s gifts to C60000015; each join is its own filter.

What the Cincinnati, OH × RNC State Elections dollars omit

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $1,479,750. Ohio 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 $1,479,750 as proof that Cincinnati, OH “funded” RNC State Elections as a municipal act, or that the committee spent the money in Ohio. 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 $1,479,750 to federal spending in Ohio.

Contribution lines can cluster in a few ZIPs or spread across many. This packet does not list those ZIPs or a donor headcount. Open the city hub and the committee hub rather than guessing a postal split from the city string alone.

How to cite the Cincinnati, OH × RNC State Elections join

Internal links go to Cincinnati, OH, RNC REPUBLICAN NATIONAL STATE ELECTIONS COMMITTEE, Ohio campaign finance, and All FEC ties. Use those four doors. The city page holds the $199,862,427 book and the committees that received the leftover $198,382,677. The committee page holds C60000015 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: Cincinnati, OH and RNC REPUBLICAN NATIONAL STATE ELECTIONS COMMITTEE (C60000015). Dropping either noun turns this page into a restatement of a hub it is not. $1,479,750 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 $1,479,750, $199,862,427, 0.74%, leftover $198,382,677, and C60000015. Keep both sides named: CINCINNATI as filer-entered city, RNC REPUBLICAN NATIONAL STATE ELECTIONS COMMITTEE as recipient. Motive is outside the packet. Unitemized gifts never appear. Live hubs override this snapshot. If the overlay disagrees, the overlay and FEC.gov control.
