Public Relations and Minnesota as a communications-label join
22 Minnesota donors produced 1,306 contributions totaling $188,969. That is 2.1% of the $8,958,749 Public Relations occupation total. Correlation is not causation: occupation does not cause the gifts, and Minnesota as donor state does not cause recipient geography.
Rows per donor in the Minnesota cell average 59.4, versus about 21.7 nationally for PUBLIC RELATIONS. Repeat itemization can lift the contribution count without lifting unique donors. Unitemized gifts under the FEC itemization threshold never enter either total.
This relationship is a bookkeeping join on two fields from FEC.gov. It is not a PRSA membership roll, a firm-billings census, or a lobbyist registration. Minnesota does not license 'public relations' as a professional class in this file.
PUBLIC RELATIONS as a filer-entered industry string
Filers typed PUBLIC RELATIONS. The FEC does not rewrite that text into a standard occupational taxonomy. Minnesota does not license 'public relations' as a professional class in this file. Nationwide, 1,549 donors produced 33,552 contributions totaling $8,958,749.
Keep Public Relations on its own Minnesota page. Mixing it with a sibling string would double-count some people and miss others, and this packet has no counts for those other strings. The Minnesota cell is only the PUBLIC RELATIONS × MN overlap: $188,969, 1,306 contributions, 22 donors.
Twenty-two Minnesota Public Relations donors
22 Minnesota donors produced 1,306 contributions totaling $188,969. Donor state MN is the address on the contribution record, not proof of a Minnesota workplace, and not a limit to Minnesota candidates.
The Minnesota campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to MN. This join is only PUBLIC RELATIONS. COMMUNICATIONS, MARKETING, and PUBLIC AFFAIRS, if used, sit in other hubs. They are not this page even when they share the MN state code.
Public Relations donations without Minnesota still holds the remainder of the $8,958,749 occupation total ($8,769,780). A Minnesota directory of workplaces would need employment data this FEC join does not contain.
A communications label is not a lobbyist docket
Minnesota does not license 'public relations' as a professional class in this file. Public records, two fields, one intersection. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates; occupation labels are filer-entered.
Independent expenditures, party coordinated spends, and committee-to-committee transfers are other FEC tables. They are not added into $188,969. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee. This page does not name committees or donors.
Read the three Minnesota counts as one cell: $188,969 dollars, 1,306 contributions, 22 donors. Read the three national Public Relations counts as the other: $8,958,749, 33,552, 1,549. Percentages (2.1% of dollars, 3.9% of rows, 1.4% of donors) are ratios of those six integers. No election cycle is named in these aggregates, so the totals are the LobbyVault FEC extract window rather than a single even-year cycle. Twenty-two Minnesota donors produced 1,306 itemized rows — high repeat against 1,549 national Public Relations donors.
Public Relations dollars outside Minnesota
2.1% of $8,958,749 is $188,969. The complementary $8,769,780 is the same occupation string in states that are not Minnesota. Do not treat the complement as a single rival state; it is every other state added together.
Citation practice: name both sides. Public Relations without Minnesota is the occupation hub. Minnesota without Public Relations is the state hub. The tie path is the intersection only. Source note: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and donor state.
