Philanthropist and Ohio as overlapping FEC fields
Occupation PHILANTHROPIST and donor state OH produce $1,418,350, 185 contributions, and 11 donors. The occupation hub is $36,654,588, 21,462 contributions, and 761 donors. Ohio’s dollar share is about 3.9%; contribution share about 0.9% (185 of 21,462); donor share about 1.4% (11 of 761). Eleven Ohio donors are about 1.4% of 761 national donors; 185 contributions are about 0.9% of 21,462 national rows; dollars are about 3.9% of $36,654,588.
PHILANTHROPY, FOUNDATION PRESIDENT, and RETIRED, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Philanthropist total. Do not stack PHILANTHROPIST with FOUNDATION PRESIDENT or PHILANTHROPY into a single Ohio professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.
11 Ohio donors produced 185 contributions, about 16.8 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 28.2 rows per donor nationally (21,462 contributions from 761 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this Ohio cell is about $7,667, against about $1,708 nationwide. Ohio’s about 3.9% dollar share from 11 people is a concentrated slice of a thin occupation (761 national donors).
PHILANTHROPIST as a self-description string
PHILANTHROPIST is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a foundation, a grant budget, or a 501(c)(3). The word on the form is the filter. The $36,654,588 national total is PHILANTHROPIST only. 761 donors produced 21,462 contributions in that occupation bucket.
This page does not split those 21,462 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Ohio (OH). Seven hundred sixty-one national donors make this a small occupation. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state OH.
Ohio on the state side
11 Ohio donors produced 185 contributions totaling $1,418,350. Donor state OH is the address on the record, not proof of a Ohio license, and not a limit to Ohio candidates. OH is the address on the itemized record. Eleven unique donors is not an Ohio foundation directory.
The Ohio campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to OH. This join is only PHILANTHROPIST. The Philanthropist occupation hub without Ohio still holds about 96.1% of the $36,654,588. Ohio’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to OH. PHILANTHROPIST is only this filter.
What the join is not
This page does not list foundations, merge retired strings, or claim that Philanthropist-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. PHILANTHROPIST is not a charity disbursement. These are itemized individual political contributions.
Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. PHILANTHROPIST is not a Form 990 extract. Donor state OH is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Foundation EINs are not in these six numbers.
Three numbers, two fields, one Philanthropist filter
Subtract the Ohio dollars on this page from the national PHILANTHROPIST occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded PHILANTHROPIST in every other state combined. That remainder ($35,236,238) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.
A unique-donor count of 11 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 185 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $1,418,350 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Ohio dollars, or only the PHILANTHROPIST national total, drops a key. Eleven donors producing 185 contributions totaling $1,418,350 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.
