Programmer political money from North Carolina

The occupation-and-state join for Programmer

Headline number: $247,560. Contribution count: 1,558. Donor keys: 50. Occupation total: $12,670,737 from 2,058 donors and 72,729 contributions. Remainder outside North Carolina: $12,423,177. Share of the occupation roll: 2.0%. Those quantities are the join. Everything else on this page explains what they are and are not. North Carolina’s Programmer join uses PROGRAMMER, not Software Developer; those two strings remain separate keys even inside North Carolina.

Programmer in North Carolina is not Programmer in every state and is not North Carolina for every occupation. Mixing those frames is how a hub restatement sneaks in. 50 donor keys and $247,560 exist only at the intersection. An occupation string does not mean the money funded federal contracts, and it does not mean the title caused the gifts.

Reading the Programmer occupation denominator

$12,670,737 is the Programmer occupation book in this extract — every donor state harvested for this string, from 72,729 contributions. North Carolina contributes $247,560 (2.0%). The packet does not split the occupation total by party, and this page does not invent that split.

What 50 North Carolina Programmer donors represent

50 is a donor-record count. $247,560 is a dollar sum. $4,951 is their ratio. None of those is a unique-person census of the occupation in North Carolina. None is a median. None is a party split. The packet did not include those fields, so this page does not publish them.

Omitted from $247,560: independent expenditures, non-individual PAC spending as a separate total, unitemized tables below the itemization threshold, and USAspending obligations. Omitted from the occupation comparison: any occupation other than PROGRAMMER, except as context that sibling strings exist.

Programmer’s share of its own occupation roll

2.0% of $12,670,737 is a defined slice. Other states hold $12,423,177. Put another way, about 2.0% of Programmer-coded itemized dollars in this aggregate were tagged donor state NC, and the rest were not. Those percentages are $247,560 divided by $12,670,737 and $12,423,177 divided by $12,670,737. They are not shares of licensed workers, eligible voters, or USAspending.

Dollar share (2.0%), contribution share (2.1%), and donor share (2.4%) are separate facts. This page does not publish a donor-count percentage as a substitute for the dollar share. Do not treat 2.0% as Programmer donors’ share of national itemized giving.

Then send the reader to the live North Carolina campaign finance page, the Programmer donations hub, all occupations, and all FEC ties. If you need named donors, those are other joins, not this file. This file stays aggregated. No donor names are supplied, and none are added.

Programmer next to other North Carolina occupation strings

Other occupation strings in North Carolina live on other tie pages. This file does not add their dollars to $247,560. Software Developer, Software Engineer, Computer Programmer, and Developer are the usual nearby labels. Opening All occupations is the way to find them. Opening All FEC ties is the way to find other occupation-state cells.

Do not invent donor names to illustrate 50 keys. The aggregate is the published object. Named individuals belong on other LobbyVault pages if those pages exist; they are not supplied here.

Repeat the join in one sentence for citation: occupation Programmer, donor state North Carolina (NC), $247,560 itemized, 1,558 contributions, 50 donors, 2.0% of $12,670,737 from 2,058 national donors. PROGRAMMER is the occupation string as typed. Software Developer is a different key. Language, employer, and contractor versus employee status are unpublished. Software Developer, Software Engineer, Computer Programmer, and Developer stay on other occupation pages. The North Carolina campaign finance hub still mixes every other title. All occupations and All FEC ties are indexes, not extra dollar columns.

What a reader may not do with $247,560: treat it as payroll, treat 50 as a workforce census, treat 2.0% as a share of North Carolina statewide receipts, or treat the cell as money that funded USAspending awards. What a reader may do: quote the pair, quote the source FEC.gov, and follow the four internal links. Mean about $159 per contribution and $4,951 per donor remain attached to 1,558 and 50. About 31.2 lines per donor remains 1,558 divided by 50.

Why does this page exist if occupation and state hubs already exist?

Because two tables meet. The occupation hub answers Programmer across states ($12,670,737). The state hub answers North Carolina across occupations. This tie answers only Programmer inside North Carolina: $247,560, 1,558 gifts, 50 donors. All FEC ties lists other such pairs.

What is omitted from $247,560?

Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, committee-to-committee transfers as a separate table, USAspending awards, and receipts whose occupation string was not PROGRAMMER. Sibling titles such as Software Developer, Software Engineer, Computer Programmer, and Developer are other rows. Source: FEC.gov occupation-state aggregates.
