Key figures

- About $869 per contribution is the mean of 1,294 itemized lines, not a unique-person count.
- The join is an FEC occupation–committee intersection, not corporate treasury spending and not USAspending awards.
- Source: FEC.gov itemized individual contribution aggregates. Not independent expenditures.
The PHOTOGRAPHER × C00531624 intersection
PHOTOGRAPHER is the occupation string as stored. LOCAL VOICES is committee C00531624. Photojournalist, Photography, and Artist are other keys if FEC stored those phrases separately. Matching rows sum to $1,125,000 across 1,294 contributions. The occupation hub is $14,417,201 to every committee in the aggregate. The committee overlay includes every occupation, not only Photographer. This tie page exists because those two dimensions meet; it is not a restatement of either hub.
The contribution count (1,294) sits between a handful of large lines and a mass of small gifts. Mean $869 is $1,125,000 ÷ 1,294. Use it only as arithmetic. The packet does not report median gift, cycle split, or unique donors for PHOTOGRAPHER × C00531624.
LOCAL VOICES is committee C00531624. Other independent-expenditure or PAC IDs are outside this occupation–committee cell. Photographer holds the occupation-wide $14,417,201. LOCAL VOICES holds committee C00531624. All occupations and All FEC ties keep the pair in the index. Committee-to-committee transfers and unitemized gifts are outside $1,125,000. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards.
What the Photographer hub still holds
The Photographer occupation grouping shows $14,417,201 in itemized individual money. The C00531624 cell is $1,125,000, or 7.8% of that total. The remaining $13,292,201 (92.2%) went to committees other than C00531624. Opening only this tie would hide that remainder.
Photographer keeps the $14,417,201 grouping and its other recipients. LOCAL VOICES keeps C00531624 volume from every occupation. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling occupation–committee cells so this join is not mistaken for a union local roll, a Getty contributor file, or a studio PAC.
LOCAL VOICES as recipient C00531624
The source note is explicit: these figures are FEC.gov aggregates of itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee, not independent expenditures. Photojournalist, Photography, and Artist receipts, if stored separately, are not inside this join. Amended Schedule A filings can move $1,125,000 and $14,417,201. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved.
LOCAL VOICES received $1,125,000 from PHOTOGRAPHER-coded receipts across 1,294 contributions. Dividing dollars by gifts gives about $869 per contribution. 1,294 lines are not 1,294 unique people. Repeat givers, multiple earmarks, and cycle stacking raise the contribution count. The packet does not publish a unique-donor figure for this cell.
What 7.8 percent does not prove
Quote $1,125,000 as 7.8% of $14,417,201 into C00531624, with 1,294 itemized lines, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Do not add sibling occupation keys. Do not fold independent expenditures into the cell. Do not treat 1,294 contributions as a headcount of people currently holding the job. Photojournalist, Photography, and Artist are other keys if stored separately.
A 7.8% share of PHOTOGRAPHER-coded dollars into C00531624 does not mean the occupation caused an election outcome, and it does not mean LOCAL VOICES is the occupation’s only political destination. A credential-sounding title is still self-reported. Do not treat contribution count as unique practitioners. Occupation and committee are reported together. The overlap is descriptive.
Citation rules for this join
Mean gift $869 is $1,125,000 divided by 1,294 lines. It is not a typical check and not a contribution limit. Later FEC bulk files override this snapshot. Do not add $1,125,000 to $14,417,201. All occupations ranks sibling titles. All FEC ties lists other occupation–committee pages.
A complete claim names Photographer and LOCAL VOICES (C00531624), then $1,125,000, 1,294 contributions, and 7.8% of $14,417,201, source FEC.gov. Keep both sides of the name whenever the dollars are quoted. The occupation hub still holds $13,292,201 outside this committee. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the committee, not either hub restated.
