How Publisher and ACTBLUE meet

Occupation PUBLISHER plus committee C00401224 equals $1,175,180. That figure is the harvested sum of itemized individual contributions in which the occupation field matched this string and the recipient committee was ACTBLUE. Neither hub alone is this number.

PUBLISHER can mean a house, a periodical, or a self-description. Author is a different occupation key. This cell does not recode those titles together.

The Publisher occupation hub versus this ACTBLUE cell

13.6% is $1,175,180 divided by $8,639,602. Invert that fraction and 86.4% of stored Publisher dollars sit off ACTBLUE. Other recipient names are not in this packet and are not invented here.

The occupation hub is the place to see those other committees. This JSON isolates C00401224. Mixing $1,175,180 into the $8,639,602 headline would hide the join.

Volume on the Publisher → ACTBLUE cell

21,067 is a contribution count. Unique donors are unpublished. Repeat itemization can raise 21,067 without a published person count. Mean $56 is $1,175,180 divided by 21,067, not a median.

Committee-to-committee transfers and unitemized gifts are outside $1,175,180.

Volume signature for Publisher × ACTBLUE: $1,175,180 on 21,067 lines, mean $56, 13.6% of the $8,639,602 occupation book. $7,464,422 (86.4%) remains with other committees that stored PUBLISHER. Those other recipients are not named here because they are not in the packet. Repeat itemization can raise 21,067 without a published person count. Do not treat the line count as a workforce census or as unique donors. Cycle year is unpublished, so $1,175,180 is not assigned to a single election night.

Exclusions around $1,175,180

Outside $1,175,180: unitemized individual gifts, independent expenditures, PAC-to-PAC transfers, and any federal award table. Inside $1,175,180: itemized individual receipts matching PUBLISHER and C00401224.

The page is self-reported publishing occupation covering several media uses, not an ISBN house census, Author as a sibling key, or a media PAC. Naming those exclusions keeps the join from being read as an organization political budget.

This join is self-reported publishing occupation covering several media uses. It is not an ISBN house census, Author as a sibling key, or a media PAC. Neighboring occupation strings—Author, editor, and journalist—stay off $1,175,180 unless the stored text was exactly PUBLISHER. FEC itemized individual contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets. Sharing a geography or a famous name does not merge the ledgers. Quote $1,175,180 as receipts tagged PUBLISHER and attributed to C00401224, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Motive, party split, and employer names are not packet fields.

The occupation hub total $8,639,602 is every harvested committee for PUBLISHER, not a restatement of C00401224.

This /ties/publisher-to-actblue/ path explains the occupation × committee overlap only.

Where to go next from this Publisher join

Open Publisher for the $8,639,602 occupation total. Open ACTBLUE to place this occupation beside other occupation strings on the same committee. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling joins. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. This tie page is the Publisher × C00401224 intersection only.

Repeat the four numbers together: $1,175,180 into C00401224, 21,067 contributions, 13.6% of $8,639,602, committee ACTBLUE. That sentence is the join.

Keep Publisher × C00401224 on /ties/publisher-to-actblue/ so the occupation hub and the ACTBLUE overlay can stay general. Mixing $1,175,180 into either hub’s headline would hide the join. Overlay /committees/C00401224/ is the committee table. The occupation hub still holds $7,464,422 outside this committee. All occupations lists sibling titles without summing them into this cell. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. Use those indexes to move, not to add dollar figures.

The occupation string PUBLISHER is filer-entered. FEC.gov does not recode it into a license class. Neighboring titles remain other occupation hubs.

Committee C00401224 is the recipient key. Other committees that received the same occupation string sit in the remainder $7,464,422, not on this dollar line.

21,067 is a contribution count, not a unique-donor count. Unique donors are unpublished in this packet and are not invented here.
