Renaissance contributions received by SMP

Relationship between Renaissance and SMP

$14,000,000 requires both keys at once: employer/occupation grouping RENAISSANCE, and recipient committee C00484642 disclosed as SMP. LobbyVault keeps a Renaissance industry hub and an SMP committee hub. Neither hub is this page. The industry hub lists every committee that received itemized gifts storing this grouping. The committee hub lists every industry string that gave to C00484642. This URL is only the intersection.

This page is a JOIN. One side is the filer-entered grouping Renaissance. The other side is SMP on C00484642. $14,000,000 is what remains after both filters, across 682 itemized contributions. Opening only the Renaissance hub restates $31,398,315. Opening only the committee hub restates every grouping that gave to C00484642. Adding those hubs together double-counts. RENAISSANCE is a short stored grouping. RENAISSANCE TECHNOLOGIES, RENAISSANCE INC, and THE RENAISSANCE are other keys. SMP on C00484642 is the recipient. A Saban Productions page also joins SMP; do not add those cells. 682 contributions produced this Renaissance cell. The packet does not expand SMP.

Industry hub versus this cell

Renaissance’s all-committee itemized book in this extract is $31,398,315 ($31.4 million). $14,000,000 is 44.6% of that book. The leftover $17,398,315 (55.4%) went to other committees under RENAISSANCE, or sits outside this recipient filter. A large or small share still describes overlap of two FEC groupings, not a finding that people in this grouping preferred this committee as a bloc.

Take the committee filter off and RENAISSANCE still shows $31,398,315 itemized. $14,000,000 is the slice tagged to C00484642. Open the Renaissance hub for the remainder $17,398,315. Do not subtract by hand from a different extract dated on another night. The industry book is not a company budget and not a NAICS sector total.

Committee hub versus this cell

C00484642 is disclosed as SMP. This page does not list independent expenditures the committee made, operating expenditures it paid, or earmark destinations beyond the labeled recipient. $14,000,000 is itemized individual receipts storing grouping RENAISSANCE and committee C00484642. Other industry strings giving to SMP appear on the committee hub. Adding them here would break the industry filter.

Quote the committee with its FEC ID so a similarly named filing is not swapped in. SMP on another ID is a different page. This URL is Renaissance × C00484642, not every spelling of RENAISSANCE. Dividing $14,000,000 by 682 contributions yields about $20,528 per itemized gift. That mean is arithmetic, not a typical gift and not a median. The packet does not name unique donors. Inventing names from the grouping label would break the contract.

682 itemized lines

44.6% of $31,398,315 is $14,000,000 to SMP (C00484642). That percentage describes overlap of two FEC groupings. Most of the $31,398,315 industry book went to other committees when 55.4% remains. Even when 44.6% is a visible slice, the slice is still only the C00484642 filter. Ranking this grouping against other employer strings is outside the packet.

The leftover $17,398,315 under the RENAISSANCE string went to other committees. The Renaissance hub holds that remainder. The SMP page holds receipts whose employer field did not store RENAISSANCE. Do not stack this cell with another industry’s gifts to C00484642; each join is its own filter.

Outside the $14,000,000 total

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $14,000,000. Independent expenditures are a different FEC file; the source note on this packet says these aggregates are not independent expenditures. Employer and occupation labels are filer-entered. Neighboring spellings, punctuation variants, and successor company names are other keys. PAC disbursements from Renaissance as an organization are not this cell.

Do not read $14,000,000 as proof that Renaissance “funded” SMP as a corporate act, or that the committee spent the money on a particular race. The join is two fields. Correlation is not causation. FEC individual contributions are not USAspending awards. This packet has no obligation dollars and no award counts. Do not add $14,000,000 to federal spending.

How researchers should quote C00484642

Internal links go to Renaissance, SMP, All industries, and All FEC ties. Use those four doors. The industry page holds the $31,398,315 book and the committees that received the leftover $17,398,315. The committee page holds C00484642 receipts from every grouping. All FEC ties collects neighboring pairs without mixing independent expenditures into this cell.

The mean gift of $20,528 belongs only to Renaissance × C00484642. Carry it onto a sibling grouping or another committee ID and it stops being a fact from this packet.

Keep both sides named: Renaissance (RENAISSANCE) as the industry/occupation grouping, SMP (C00484642) as the recipient. $14,000,000 from 682 itemized contributions is the published overlap. Unitemized gifts never appear. If a later FEC extract disagrees with this snapshot, FEC.gov controls.

Questions

What is the Renaissance × SMP FEC total?

Itemized FEC individual contributions storing grouping RENAISSANCE and recipient SMP (C00484642) total $14,000,000 in this extract, across 682 contributions. That is the join, not Renaissance’s all-committee book of $31,398,315. These figures are not independent expenditures. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

How much of the $31.4 million Renaissance book is C00484642?

$14,000,000 is 44.6% of the $31,398,315 Renaissance book. The leftover $17,398,315 stayed with other committee IDs under the same grouping string. 44.6% is a share of two FEC fields, not a finding that this grouping preferred SMP as a bloc. Open the Renaissance hub for the remainder.

Who gave the $14,000,000 from Renaissance to C00484642?

No. This packet publishes a dollar total ($14,000,000) and a contribution count (682). It does not name unique donors. Renaissance is filer-entered employer or occupation text, not a verified employee or member list. Inventing names from the grouping or from the committee label would go beyond the facts.

Does $14,000,000 include SMP IE totals?

No. $14,000,000 is itemized individual contributions grouped by employer/industry and recipient committee. The source note states these aggregates are not independent expenditures. FEC receipts and USAspending award files are different datasets. Sharing a grouping string does not turn these gifts into federal obligations.
