Physicist political contributions from Alabama

Physicist and Alabama as a science-title join

Occupation PHYSICIST and donor state AL produce $93,663, 138 contributions, and 8 donors. The occupation hub is $9,957,534, 35,002 contributions, and 996 donors. Dollar, contribution, and donor shares cluster within a few points (0.9%, 0.4%, 0.8%). Alabama tracks the national Physicist mix rather than concentrating one of the three measures. Alabama Physicist dollar share sits above contribution share on a one-word science title.

Physicist is a one-word science title as typed, not a Research Scientist recode. Nearby strings — SCIENTIST, RESEARCH SCIENTIST, ENGINEER, and ASTROPHYSICIST — sit in other occupation hubs when filers used those words. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $93,663 or $9,957,534. Research Scientist in Wisconsin is a different occupation string. Eight Alabama donors are a matching key, not a named-lab roster.

Eight Alabama donors produced 138 contributions, about 17.2 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 35.1 rows per donor nationally (35,002 contributions from 996 donors). Mean dollars per donor in this Alabama cell are about $11,708, versus about $9,998 across the occupation. Those ratios are arithmetic on the six packet numbers, not a gift-size ranking of influence.

PHYSICIST versus Research Scientist and Engineer

PHYSICIST is filer-entered. The FEC file does not verify a physics degree, a lab appointment, or an Alabama workplace. The national grouping is 996 donors, 35,002 contributions, and $9,957,534.

35,002 contributions from 996 donors shows repeat itemization nationwide. Alabama’s 138 contributions from 8 donors is the AL-coded piece. This page does not split those rows by cycle, employer, or recipient committee. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Alabama.

Eight Alabama donors on a thin physics cell

Eight Alabama donors produced 138 contributions totaling $93,663. Donor state AL is the address on the record, not proof of a Alabama professional license, and not a limit to Alabama candidates. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee.

The Alabama campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to AL. This join is only PHYSICIST. Subtract $93,663 from $9,957,534 and $9,863,871 remains coded Physicist in every other state combined (34,864 contributions, 988 donors). That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties.

Dollar share above contribution share on a physics title

This page does not measure physicist output, does not rank firms, and does not claim that Physicist-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Not an Alabama lab-employment extract, not a named-lab roster, and not a physics-faculty census.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Itemized individual contributions only. Firm names, license numbers, and employer strings are not in these six numbers. Donor state AL is not recipient geography.

Physics strings that remain unmerged

A unique-donor count is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total can hide that skew. Keeping $93,663, 138 contributions, and 8 donors on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Alabama dollars, or only the Physicist national total, drops a key.

Physicist donations holds the $9,957,534 national occupation total. Alabama campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and all FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. SCIENTIST, RESEARCH SCIENTIST, ENGINEER, is a different occupation string if a filer used it.

This relationship is not a forecast and not a ranking of influence. Occupation does not cause contributions, and donor state does not cause recipient geography. Public records, two fields, one intersection. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates; occupation labels are filer-entered. Research Scientist in Wisconsin is a different occupation string. Eight Alabama donors are a matching key, not a named-lab roster.

Questions

How much have Physicist donors in Alabama given?

FEC itemized individual contributions from donors listing occupation Physicist and state Alabama total $93,663, from 138 contributions and 8 donors. Nationwide, Physicist-coded receipts are $9,957,534 from 35,002 contributions and 996 donors. Alabama is 0.9% of those dollars.

Are these Alabama physicists with lab appointments?

Occupation is PHYSICIST and state is AL. The FEC file does not confirm a degree or a named lab. Scientist, Research Scientist, and Engineer are other occupation keys. This Alabama join does not recode those strings into PHYSICIST. Research Scientist in Wisconsin is a different occupation cell in this slice.

What share of Physicist FEC money is from Alabama?

0.9% of the $9,957,534 occupation total is in this Alabama join ($93,663). Alabama also accounts for 0.4% of contributions (138 of 35,002) and 0.8% of donors (8 of 996). Those three shares are computed from the packet facts only.

Does this money go to Alabama candidates?

Not necessarily. Donor state is Alabama. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee. This page does not allocate the $93,663 by office or by in-state versus out-of-state campaigns. Independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov itemized individual contributions; occupation labels are filer-entered.
