Realtor political contributions from Georgia

The Realtor–Georgia intersection

Occupation REALTOR and donor state GA produce $1,319,682, 4,756 contributions, and 318 donors. The occupation hub is $49,791,079, 243,658 contributions, and 10,968 donors. Georgia’s dollar share is about 2.7%; contribution share about 2.0% (4,756 of 243,658); donor share about 2.9% (318 of 10,968). Three hundred eighteen Georgia donors are 2.9% of 10,968 national REALTOR donors. Dollars ($1,319,682 of $49,791,079) are about 2.7%; contributions (4,756 of 243,658) about 2.0%.

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

318 Georgia donors produced 4,756 contributions, about 15.0 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 Georgia cell is about $277, against about $204 nationwide. Georgia’s Realtor mean gift is about $277, above the national Realtor mean of about $204. That gap is arithmetic on 4,756 rows, not a ranking of Atlanta offices.

REALTOR as a one-word occupation string

REALTOR is a filer-entered string. The file does not confirm trademark usage, a local-board membership, or a salesperson versus broker license. The word REALTOR is the filter. 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 Georgia (GA). This page locates the Georgia overlap. It does not add the Georgia Real Estate Broker cell to invent a combined housing total.

Georgia as donor state

318 Georgia donors produced 4,756 contributions totaling $1,319,682. Donor state GA is the address on the record, not proof of a Georgia license, and not a limit to Georgia candidates. GA is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a Georgia real-estate license and not a limit to Georgia candidates. Metro Atlanta and the rest of the state share the same code.

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

What not to infer from Realtor plus Georgia

This page does not merge Real Estate Broker dollars, count NAR members, 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 BROKER even when state practice treats those words as related. Those two Georgia cells stay separate.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. REALTOR is not an NAR or license roster. Donor state GA is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. Brokerage names are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Realtor filter

Subtract the Georgia 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 ($48,471,397) 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 318 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 4,756 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $1,319,682 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Georgia dollars, or only the REALTOR national total, drops a key. Three hundred eighteen donors producing 4,756 contributions is the fact to keep next to the $1,319,682 headline.

Realtor donations holds the $49,791,079 national occupation total. Georgia 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. The Georgia Real Estate Broker occupation-state tie is a different packet and is not added here.
