Pharmacist donations in the 2010 FEC cycle

Filers who listed Pharmacist itemized $932,105 in FEC individual contributions in the 2010 midterm cycle — 1,353 receipts from 723 donors. The license-sounding title is still just the characters on the form. The occupation string PHARMACIST sums to $19.2 million ($19,178,714) across harvested cycles; this 2010 cell is 4.9% of that sum. FEC.gov stores the occupation as typed. This page is the join of the Pharmacist occupation table and the 2010 election-cycle table, not a restatement of either hub.

Key figures

  • Pharmacist × 2010: $932,105.
  • 1,353 receipts from 723 donors.
  • 4.9% of the $19,178,714 PHARMACIST total.
  • Filer-entered occupation; chain-pharmacy and pharmacist-association PAC filings are a different table.

Pharmacist × 2010

PHARMACIST plus cycle 2010 equals $932,105. That figure is the harvested sum of itemized individual contributions in which the occupation field matched this string and the two-year federal election cycle was 2010. Pharmacy owner, Pharm.D., RPh, and pharmacy technician are other keys if those words appear. This join does not recode the label into a National Association of Boards of Pharmacy census, a state pharmacy-board roster, or a chain-pharmacy payroll. Other cycle amounts are not fields in this packet.

Parent hubs: Pharmacist donations at /occupations/pharmacist/ and the 2010 election cycle at /election-cycles/2010/. All occupations lists neighboring titles. All FEC ties keeps each occupation-year cell on its own path so a reader can move without mixing $932,105 into another year or another string. Do not add those parent pages into this cell.

Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Pharmacist in 2010 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $932,105. Retail versus hospital versus independent practice is unpublished for Pharmacist in 2010. The occupation page and the 2010 cycle page are the next clicks for named committees.

The PHARMACIST string, not a license file

$19.2 million ($19,178,714) belongs to the exact string PHARMACIST across harvested cycles. It is not a National Association of Boards of Pharmacy census, a state pharmacy-board roster, or a chain-pharmacy payroll. People who wrote nearby wording — pharmacy owner, Pharm.D., RPh, and pharmacy technician — sit in other rows if the characters differ. The 2010 slice is 4.9% of that title bucket. Share of PHARMACIST is not share of all 2010 receipts.

Amended individual contribution reports can move $932,105. A later harvest of the same occupation string can move $19,178,714. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Live Pharmacist donations and the live 2010 election cycle pages are the tables; this prose is a packet snapshot. Itemized individual contributions are the only receipt class in this cell. Unitemized gifts below the itemization threshold, in-kind goods, and bundled contributions without this occupation string are outside $932,105.

1,353 pharmacist receipts in a midterm

723 donors and 1,353 receipts — about 1.9 lines per donor. Mean per receipt about $689; mean per donor about $1,289. Those ratios are arithmetic on two harvested integers. They are not medians, not typical gifts, and not a claim about income. 723 donors makes this a broader occupation-cycle cell. No median is published in this packet.

Repeat gifts add receipts. 1,353 is a line count, not 723 one-time gifts; receipts sit close to the donor count, so many people in the cell appear on a small number of lines. Retail versus hospital versus independent practice is not encoded in the occupation string. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by PHARMACIST. People who left occupation blank, used a nearby spelling, or listed a more specific title are not in $932,105.

Title versus pharmacy PACs

Cite $932,105 as Pharmacist in 2010. Cite $19,178,714 as this title’s occupation total. Do not add chain-pharmacy and pharmacist-association PAC filings to either figure. Those filings are committee reports. Mixing PAC spending with $932,105 would blend FEC tables. All occupations lists neighboring titles so a searcher can open the other string’s cycle cell rather than rescale 4.9%.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. This join does not recode PHARMACIST into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a license class. If a researcher needs those crosswalks, they start from the raw string. Correlation is not causation: a midterm-year total does not prove the occupation’s motives, and it does not attach these gifts to any federal spending dataset.

How to cite pharmacist money in 2010

A clean footnote names occupation PHARMACIST, election cycle 2010, $932,105 in itemized individual contributions, 1,353 receipts, and 723 donors on FEC.gov. Keep the itemized word. Mean dollars remain about $689 per line and $1,289 per donor in the cell. If the live Pharmacist donations overlay has refreshed, quote the overlay. Do not treat 1,353 as unique workers in the trade.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Pharmacist donations rolls every cycle into one PHARMACIST running total. The 2010 election cycle rolls every occupation into one 2010 total. Only the Pharmacist × 2010 overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 1,353 receipts and $932,105. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-cycle cells.
