Product Manager political contributions from Washington

PRODUCT MANAGER in Washington, not PROGRAM MANAGER

Occupation PRODUCT MANAGER and donor state WA produce $954,450, 2,859 contributions, and 135 donors. The occupation hub is $6,561,017, 36,068 contributions, and 1,415 donors. Washington’s dollar share is about 14.5% ($954,450 of $6,561,017). Its contribution share is about 7.9% (2,859 of 36,068). Its donor share is about 9.5% (135 of 1,415).

Dollar share exceeds donor share, which exceeds contribution share. One hundred thirty-five people produced about one seventh of occupation dollars while making up about one tenth of occupation donors. That is a broader unique-person slice than CTO’s 29-donor Washington cell.

PROGRAM MANAGER donors in Washington ($1,290,149, 8,841 contributions, 264 donors) is a different occupation string. PROJECT MANAGER, if stored as another slug, is not inside $6,561,017 unless grouped here. This packet does not claim that grouping.

A technology-adjacent title without an employer check

PRODUCT MANAGER is typed on the receipt. FEC.gov does not verify a software product, a consumer-goods role, or an employer. One thousand four hundred fifteen national donors used the string. People who typed PM or PROGRAM MANAGER sit in other occupation totals.

Thirty-six thousand sixty-eight contributions from 1,415 donors nationwide is about 25 itemized gifts per donor. Washington’s 2,859 contributions from 135 donors is about 21 gifts per donor. Receipt frequency is similar. The extra dollar share comes from larger average gifts in the Washington cell.

Washington cell averages beside other WA manager titles

Dividing $954,450 by 2,859 contributions yields about $334 per gift. Dividing by 135 donors yields about $7,070 per donor. Nationally, $6,561,017 divided by 36,068 contributions is about $182 per gift. Washington’s mean is higher than the national occupation mean and higher than Program Manager’s Washington mean (~$146 per gift in that other join).

Donor state WA is the address on the receipt. Recipients need not be Washington committees. Software, Programmer, and General Manager Washington ties remain separate files.

One hundred thirty-five Washington donors produced 2,859 contributions, about 21 itemized gifts per person, versus about 25 nationally. Frequency is slightly lower. Mean gift (about $334 versus about $182) carries the 14.5% dollar share above the 9.5% donor share. That is a mean-gift premium on a still-broad unique-person list, unlike CTO’s 29-donor Washington cell.

Do not stack Product Manager with Program Manager

Adding $954,450 to $1,290,149 would mix occupation keys and could double-count anyone who used both titles across receipts. Washington’s 14.5% share of Product Manager-coded dollars is not 14.5% of all Washington itemized giving and is not causation.

Coverage is itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov. Unitemized money and independent expenditures are out of scope. Occupation labels are filer-entered.

PROGRAM MANAGER’s Washington join has more donors (264), more contributions (8,841), and more dollars ($1,290,149) with a smaller mean gift. The two manager titles describe different receipt shapes. Adding them would mix keys. PROJECT MANAGER, if stored separately, is a third key not claimed as merged here.

Occupation hub, state hub, manager-title neighbors

Product Manager donations carries the $6,561,017 national occupation total. Washington campaign finance carries all WA-coded itemized individual activity. All occupations and All FEC ties keep PRODUCT MANAGER and PROGRAM MANAGER as separate Washington joins.

The occupation hub still holds $5,606,567 outside Washington ($6,561,017 minus $954,450). Use Product Manager donations for that remainder. Washington campaign finance holds every other WA-coded title. This page holds only PRODUCT MANAGER × WA.

Mid-teen share, still not Program Manager

Washington’s 14.5% of Product Manager dollars from 135 donors is a mid-teen share like SOFTWARE and PROGRAM MANAGER in the same state, with a different receipt shape (2,859 lines, about $334 per gift). Those similarities do not license adding the cells. PRODUCT MANAGER × WA is $954,450 only.

The remaining $5,606,567 sits outside Washington. Use Product Manager donations for that remainder. The Washington state hub still mixes every other occupation.
