Philanthropist and the 2010 election cycle

Two filters: Philanthropist and 2010

Two FEC fields define the cell: occupation PHILANTHROPIST and election cycle 2010. Matching rows sum to $651,631, 186 contributions, and 92 donors. PHILANTHROPIST is a self-description. FEC.gov does not verify grants, a private foundation, or a 501(c)(3). The string is not a charity expenditure total. The occupation hub is $36,654,588 across every cycle in the aggregate. The 2010 cycle hub mixes every other occupation that used that year. Neither hub restates this intersection; this tie page exists because the two dimensions meet.

2010’s dollar share is 1.8% ($651,631 of $36,654,588). The remainder, $36,002,957, sits in other cycles on the occupation hub. 92 donor keys and 186 lines describe this midterm-cycle cell. Correlation between a job title and a two-year FEC window is a reporting overlap, not causation of an election outcome. Itemized individual receipts are the coverage. Unitemized money never appears in $651,631. 1.8% of $36,654,588 is a thin year share. Most Philanthropist-coded itemized receipts sit in other cycles; this page isolates 2010.

Midterm window, occupation string PHILANTHROPIST

$36,654,588 is the occupation-side denominator. It is not limited to 2010. Retired, Investor, and Foundation are other occupation keys if stored separately. Adding those keys to $36,654,588 would be a researcher-built recode, not this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered on itemized individual receipts. PHILANTHROPIST is a self-description. FEC.gov does not verify grants, a private foundation, or a 501(c)(3). The string is not a charity expenditure total.

Open Philanthropist donations for the $36,654,588 roll. Open the 2010 election cycle hub for every occupation in that window. All occupations and All FEC ties place this pair beside other occupation-cycle pages without combining dollar figures. A 1.8% year share of this occupation total means the rest of the labeled money sits outside 2010.

92 donor keys inside the 2010 cell

Dividing $651,631 by 186 contributions yields about $3,503 per gift. Dividing by 92 donors yields about $7,083 per donor. Gifts per donor average about 2.0 (186 ÷ 92). Those ratios describe this string in 2010, not payroll at firms that employ people with similar titles, and not an IRS Form 990 extract or a foundation directory.

92 is a donor-key count inside the occupation × cycle aggregate, not a headcount of everyone who held the job in 2010. Repeat itemization, couples filing separately, and people who used the string on some receipts but not others all move the 92 figure. The cycle hub still holds every other occupation’s 2010 receipts beside this cell. People who left occupation blank or used a nearby spelling are not in $651,631.

Unitemized money and other FEC tables

A 1.8% share of Philanthropist-coded dollars from 2010 does not mean the occupation caused those gifts, and it does not mean people with that title funded a policy outcome. Occupation and cycle are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Independent expenditures, committee-to-committee transfers, and unitemized gifts are out of scope.

Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger. This join does not claim that 2010 donations funded contracts or grants. Quote $651,631 as itemized individual receipts tagged PHILANTHROPIST in 2010, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Correlation is not causation.

A complete Philanthropist × 2010 claim

A complete claim names Philanthropist and 2010, then $651,631, 186 contributions, 92 donors, and 1.8% of $36,654,588, source FEC.gov. Do not convert 92 keys into licensed or employed practitioners. Do not fold independent expenditures or USAspending awards into the cell. Keep both sides of the name—Philanthropist and 2010—whenever the dollars are quoted. Mean gift $3,503 and mean per donor $7,083 travel with those counts; they do not travel with an IRS Form 990 extract or a foundation directory.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Philanthropist donations rolls every cycle into one PHILANTHROPIST running total. The 2010 election cycle rolls every occupation into one 2010 total. Only the Philanthropist × 2010 overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 186 receipts and $651,631. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-cycle cells.

Remainder $36,002,957 outside 2010

The occupation hub still holds $36,002,957 outside 2010. Most of the $36,654,588 roll is not this cycle’s cell when 1.8% is the year share. Retired, Investor, and Foundation are other occupation keys if stored separately. Those titles are not parents of PHILANTHROPIST on this page. Gifts per donor in 2010 average about 2.0.

Midterm cycles still use the same occupation string. What 2010 changes is the window, not the spelling of PHILANTHROPIST. Keep Philanthropist in the title and the H1 so the page is not mistaken for a generic 2010 roundup.
