Rancher contributions received by REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE

Two FEC labels, one dollar cell

RANCHER is the occupation string as stored. REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE is committee C00003418. Farmer, Ranch Owner, and Cattleman are other keys if FEC stored those phrases separately. Matching rows sum to $1,307,569 across 11,657 contributions. The occupation hub is $17,057,096 to every committee in the aggregate. The committee overlay includes every occupation, not only Rancher. This tie page exists because those two dimensions meet; it is not a restatement of either hub.

11,657 itemized lines at a modest mean mix small and larger gifts. Unique ranchers are unpublished. The join key is the occupation string plus committee ID C00003418. It is not a finding that a trade association, employer, or candidate bundled the gifts. Filers listed RANCHER; the receipts are attributed to C00003418 in this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov does not audit job titles against licenses or payroll.

The contribution count (11,657) sits between a handful of large lines and a mass of small gifts. Mean $112 is $1,307,569 ÷ 11,657. Use it only as arithmetic. The packet does not report median gift, cycle split, or unique donors for RANCHER × C00003418.

Rancher dollars outside C00003418

The Rancher occupation grouping shows $17,057,096 in itemized individual money. The C00003418 cell is $1,307,569, or 7.7% of that total. The remaining $15,749,527 (92.3%) went to committees other than C00003418. Opening only this tie would hide that remainder.

Rancher keeps the $17,057,096 grouping and its other recipients. REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE keeps C00003418 volume from every occupation. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling occupation–committee cells so this join is not mistaken for a USDA operator census, a brand-inspection roll, or a farmer PAC file.

Reading the 11,657 contribution count

REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE received $1,307,569 from RANCHER-coded receipts across 11,657 contributions. Dividing dollars by gifts gives about $112 per contribution. 11,657 lines are not 11,657 unique people. Repeat givers, multiple earmarks, and cycle stacking raise the contribution count. The packet does not publish a unique-donor figure for this cell.

The source note is explicit: these figures are FEC.gov aggregates of itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee, not independent expenditures. Farmer, Ranch Owner, and Cattleman receipts, if stored separately, are not inside this join. Amended Schedule A filings can move $1,307,569 and $17,057,096. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved.

Correlation is not causation on this tie

A 7.7% share of RANCHER-coded dollars into C00003418 does not mean the occupation caused an election outcome, and it does not mean REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE is the occupation’s only political destination. A credential-sounding title is still self-reported. Do not treat contribution count as unique practitioners. Occupation and committee are reported together. The overlap is descriptive.

Quote $1,307,569 as 7.7% of $17,057,096 into C00003418, with 11,657 itemized lines, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Do not add sibling occupation keys. Do not fold independent expenditures into the cell. Do not treat 11,657 contributions as a headcount of people currently holding the job. Farmer, Ranch Owner, and Cattleman are other keys if stored separately.

Where the live tables sit

A complete claim names Rancher and REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE (C00003418), then $1,307,569, 11,657 contributions, and 7.7% of $17,057,096, source FEC.gov. Keep both sides of the name whenever the dollars are quoted. The occupation hub still holds $15,749,527 outside this committee. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the committee, not either hub restated.

Mean gift $112 is $1,307,569 divided by 11,657 lines. It is not a typical check and not a contribution limit. Later FEC bulk files override this snapshot. Do not add $1,307,569 to $17,057,096. All occupations ranks sibling titles. All FEC ties lists other occupation–committee pages.
