The Private Investor–Ohio intersection
Occupation PRIVATE INVESTOR and donor state OH produce $646,600, 34 contributions, and 16 donors. The occupation hub is $10,334,178, 7,639 contributions, and 954 donors. Ohio’s dollar share is about 6.3%; contribution share about 0.4% (34 of 7,639); donor share about 1.7% (16 of 954). Sixteen Ohio donors sit inside 954 national PRIVATE INVESTOR donors. Thirty-four contributions of 7,639 national rows is a sparse cell holding $646,600 of $10,334,178.
INVESTOR, RETIRED, and SELF EMPLOYED, if used, sit in other hubs. Do not stack PRIVATE INVESTOR with INVESTOR or SELF EMPLOYED into a single Ohio professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.
16 Ohio donors produced 34 contributions, about 2.1 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 8.0 rows per donor nationally (7,639 contributions from 954 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this Ohio cell is about $19,018, against about $1,353 nationwide. Ohio’s $646,600 from 34 rows is not a typical itemized gift size. A few large checks can dominate a 16-person cell. The packet does not publish a median.
PRIVATE INVESTOR as a capital-source self-description
PRIVATE INVESTOR is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify accredited-investor status, a fund, or a family office. The $10,334,178 national total is PRIVATE INVESTOR only. 954 donors produced 7,639 contributions in that occupation bucket.
This page does not split those 7,639 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Ohio (OH). Seven thousand six hundred thirty-nine national contributions make this a relatively small occupation. This tie locates the Ohio overlap.
Ohio as donor state
16 Ohio donors produced 34 contributions totaling $646,600. 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. Sixteen unique donors is not an Ohio investor directory and not a map of which campaigns received the $646,600.
The Ohio campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to OH. This join is only PRIVATE INVESTOR. The Private Investor occupation hub without Ohio still holds about 93.7% of the $10,334,178. Ohio’s state hub includes every occupation coded to OH. PRIVATE INVESTOR is only this filter.
What not to infer from Private Investor plus Ohio
This page does not count family offices, rank net worth, or claim that Private Investor-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. PRIVATE INVESTOR is not INVESTOR and not BUSINESS EXECUTIVE even when filers meant similar roles.
Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. PRIVATE INVESTOR is not an accredited-investor extract. Donor state OH is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. AUM figures are not in these six numbers.
Three numbers, two fields, one Private Investor filter
Subtract the Ohio dollars on this page from the national PRIVATE INVESTOR occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded PRIVATE INVESTOR in every other state combined. That remainder ($9,687,578) 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 16 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 34 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $646,600 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 PRIVATE INVESTOR national total, drops a key. Sixteen donors producing 34 contributions totaling $646,600 is the fact to keep next to the dollar headline.
