Real Estate Broker political contributions from New Jersey

The Real Estate Broker–New Jersey intersection

Occupation REAL ESTATE BROKER and donor state NJ produce $1,301,115, 1,943 contributions, and 178 donors. The occupation hub is $44,876,243, 153,581 contributions, and 11,039 donors. New Jersey’s dollar share is about 2.9%; contribution share about 1.3% (1,943 of 153,581); donor share about 1.6% (178 of 11,039). One hundred seventy-eight New Jersey donors are 1.6% of 11,039 national REAL ESTATE BROKER donors. Dollar share (about 2.9% of $44,876,243) outruns contribution share (about 1.3%).

REALTOR, BROKER, and REAL ESTATE AGENT, if used, sit in other hubs. Do not stack REAL ESTATE BROKER with REALTOR or REAL ESTATE AGENT into a single New Jersey professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

178 New Jersey donors produced 1,943 contributions, about 10.9 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 13.9 rows per donor nationally (153,581 contributions from 11,039 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this New Jersey cell is about $670, against about $292 nationwide. New Jersey’s high mean is arithmetic on 1,943 rows, not a ranking of Bergen or Hudson brokerages. Georgia’s Real Estate Broker cell has more donors (366) and a mean near the national figure.

REAL ESTATE BROKER receipts with a New Jersey address

REAL ESTATE BROKER is a filer-entered string. The file does not confirm a New Jersey broker license. The three-word string plus NJ is the filter. The $44,876,243 national total is REAL ESTATE BROKER only. 11,039 donors produced 153,581 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 153,581 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to New Jersey (NJ). This page locates the New Jersey overlap. It does not name brokerages among the 178 New Jersey donors.

New Jersey as donor state

178 New Jersey donors produced 1,943 contributions totaling $1,301,115. Donor state NJ is the address on the record, not proof of a New Jersey license, and not a limit to New Jersey candidates. NJ is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a New Jersey license and not a limit to New Jersey candidates. A donor can live in New Jersey and work in New York while the state code stays NJ.

The New Jersey campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to NJ. This join is only REAL ESTATE BROKER. The Real Estate Broker occupation hub without New Jersey still holds about 97.1% of the $44,876,243. New Jersey’s state hub includes every occupation coded to NJ. REAL ESTATE BROKER is only this filter.

What not to infer from Real Estate Broker plus New Jersey

This page does not merge Realtor dollars, count licensed brokers, or claim that Broker-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. REAL ESTATE BROKER is not REALTOR. Those strings, if used, never enter the $1,301,115.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. REAL ESTATE BROKER is not a New Jersey Real Estate Commission extract. Donor state NJ is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Brokerage names are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Real Estate Broker filter

Subtract the New Jersey dollars on this page from the national REAL ESTATE BROKER occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded REAL ESTATE BROKER in every other state combined. That remainder ($43,575,128) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count of 178 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 1,943 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $1,301,115 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the New Jersey dollars, or only the REAL ESTATE BROKER national total, drops a key. One hundred seventy-eight donors producing 1,943 contributions is the high-mean fact to keep next to the $1,301,115 headline.
