Realtor political contributions from Alabama

Realtor and Alabama as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation REALTOR and donor state AL produce $1,346,618, 3,150 contributions, and 134 donors. The occupation hub is $49,791,079, 243,658 contributions, and 10,968 donors. Alabama’s dollar share is about 2.7%; contribution share about 1.3% (3,150 of 243,658); donor share about 1.2% (134 of 10,968). One hundred thirty-four Alabama donors are about 1.2% of 10,968 national donors; 3,150 contributions are about 1.3% of 243,658 national rows; dollars are about 2.7% of $49,791,079.

REAL ESTATE AGENT, REAL ESTATE BROKER, and REALTOR ASSOCIATE, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Realtor total. Do not stack REALTOR with REAL ESTATE AGENT or REAL ESTATE BROKER into a single Alabama professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

134 Alabama donors produced 3,150 contributions, about 23.5 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 22.2 rows per donor nationally (243,658 contributions from 10,968 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this Alabama cell is about $427, against about $204 nationwide. Alabama’s about 2.7% dollar share from 134 people runs ahead of the 1.3% contribution share — a larger-mean slice of a 243,658-row occupation.

REALTOR as a trade-title string

REALTOR is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a REALTOR membership, an Alabama broker license, or a closed-sale count. The $49,791,079 national total is REALTOR only. 10,968 donors produced 243,658 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 243,658 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Alabama (AL). Ten thousand nine hundred sixty-eight national donors make this a many-person bucket. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state AL.

Alabama as the donor-state code

134 Alabama donors produced 3,150 contributions totaling $1,346,618. Donor state AL is the address on the record, not proof of a Alabama license, and not a limit to Alabama candidates. AL is the address on the itemized record, not proof of an Alabama listing, and not a map of which campaigns received the $1,346,618.

The Alabama campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to AL. This join is only REALTOR. The Realtor occupation hub without Alabama still holds about 97.3% of the $49,791,079. Alabama’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to AL. REALTOR is only this filter.

What the Realtor–Alabama join is not

This page does not count licensed brokers, merge agent strings, or claim that Realtor-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. REALTOR is not REAL ESTATE AGENT even when filers meant a sales associate. This cell is not the Arizona Realtor pair.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. REALTOR is not a real-estate licensing extract. Donor state AL is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. MLS IDs are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Alabama Realtor filter

Subtract the Alabama dollars on this page from the national REALTOR occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded REALTOR in every other state combined. That remainder ($48,444,461) 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 134 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 3,150 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $1,346,618 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Alabama dollars, or only the REALTOR national total, drops a key. One hundred thirty-four donors producing 3,150 contributions is the fact to keep next to the $1,346,618 headline.

Realtor donations holds the $49,791,079 national occupation total. Alabama campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and all FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. Arizona has a separate Realtor occupation-state tie in this same slice; do not add those dollars here.
