Real Estate Agent political contributions from Arizona

REAL ESTATE AGENT plus Arizona donor state

Occupation REAL ESTATE AGENT and donor state AZ produce $1,220,952, 1,561 contributions, and 44 donors. The occupation hub is $9,353,438, 35,729 contributions, and 1,920 donors. Arizona’s dollar share is about 13.1% ($1,220,952 of $9,353,438). Its contribution share is about 4.4% (1,561 of 35,729). Its donor share is about 2.3% (44 of 1,920).

Dollar share is several times donor share. Forty-four people produced about one eighth of occupation dollars while making up about one forty-fourth of occupation donors. That is a concentrated unique-person cell relative to the dollar pile.

REALTOR, REAL ESTATE BROKER, and BROKER are other keys if stored separately. They are not inside $9,353,438 unless grouped here. This packet does not claim that grouping.

A license-sounding title without a license check

REAL ESTATE AGENT is typed on the receipt. FEC.gov does not match it to an Arizona Department of Real Estate license file. One thousand nine hundred twenty national donors used the string. People who typed REALTOR or REAL ESTATE BROKER sit in other occupation totals unless a grouping rule merged them.

Thirty-five thousand seven hundred twenty-nine contributions from 1,920 donors nationwide is about 19 itemized gifts per donor. Arizona’s 1,561 contributions from 44 donors is about 35 gifts per donor. Repeat itemization is denser in the Arizona cell. Gift size is also higher, as the ratios below show.

Forty-four Arizona donors and mean gift size

Dividing $1,220,952 by 1,561 contributions yields about $782 per gift. Dividing by 44 donors yields about $27,749 per donor. Nationally, $9,353,438 divided by 35,729 contributions is about $262 per gift. The Arizona mean is about three times the national occupation mean. A few large itemized gifts among 44 people can move that average.

Donor state AZ is the address on the receipt. Recipients need not be Arizona committees. This join does not track home prices, listing volume, or brokerage brands.

Forty-four Arizona donors produced 1,561 contributions, about 35 itemized gifts per person, versus about 19 nationally. The cell is both more frequent per donor and larger per gift (about $782 versus about $262). Either pattern concentrates dollars. Together they produce 13.1% of occupation dollars from 2.3% of donors.

What 13.1% of Real Estate Agent dollars is not

Arizona’s share is a table split. It is not evidence that Arizona’s housing market caused the gifts, that agents as a class funded a party, or that campaign receipts measure real-estate conditions. Occupation and state travel together on receipts. Causation is not in the join.

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

REAL ESTATE AGENT is not REAL ESTATE BROKER. A prior packet wave includes broker-state joins under a different slug. Arizona filers who typed REALTOR or BROKER are not in $1,220,952 unless those strings grouped here, which this packet does not claim.

Occupation hub, state hub, other real-estate titles

Real Estate Agent donations carries the $9,353,438 national occupation total. Arizona campaign finance carries all AZ-coded itemized individual activity. All occupations and All FEC ties keep REAL ESTATE AGENT separate from broker and Realtor strings so $1,220,952 is not treated as a combined real-estate sector.

The occupation hub still holds $8,132,486 outside Arizona ($9,353,438 minus $1,220,952). Use Real Estate Agent donations for that remainder. Do not read $1,220,952 as Arizona housing activity or as a count of licensed agents.

Forty-four donors and a 13.1% dollar share

Arizona’s unique-person count is small (44 of 1,920) relative to its dollar share. 1,561 contributions show the 44 people were not one-and-done itemizers. About 35 gifts per donor is the frequency side of the same concentration that the $782 mean gift shows on the amount side.

Licensing boards are not FEC datasets. $1,220,952 does not count active licenses. It counts itemized receipts whose occupation field matched REAL ESTATE AGENT and whose donor state matched AZ.
