Researcher contributions received by ACTBLUE
$3,756,419 in itemized individual contributions is the join between occupation RESEARCHER and ACTBLUE (C00401224). That cell covers 60,588 contributions on FEC.gov. The occupation grouping totals $13,109,440 ($13.1 million) across all recipients, so this committee is 28.7% of that labeled money. This page is the occupation-and-committee match, not an NSF award file, a lab census, or USAspending research grants.
Key figures
- ActBlue received $3,756,419 from Researcher-coded individual gifts across 60,588 contributions.
- The Researcher occupation grouping totals $13,109,440, so this committee is 28.7% of that labeled money.
- About $62 per contribution is the mean of 60,588 itemized lines, not a unique-person count.
- The join is an FEC occupation–committee intersection, not corporate treasury spending and not USAspending awards.
- Source: FEC.gov itemized individual contribution aggregates. Not independent expenditures.
Researcher occupation text meeting ActBlue
RESEARCHER is the occupation string as stored. ACTBLUE is committee C00401224. Scientist is a sibling ActBlue join in this batch. Federal grant tables are USAspending, not this cell. Matching rows sum to $3,756,419 across 60,588 contributions. The occupation hub is $13,109,440 to every committee in the aggregate. The committee overlay includes every occupation, not only Researcher. This tie page exists because those two dimensions meet; it is not a restatement of either hub.
Tens of thousands of itemized lines at a two-digit mean, with more than a quarter of the occupation book on this conduit. The occupation total is smaller than Scientist; the conduit share is similar. The join key is the occupation string plus committee ID C00401224. It is not a finding that a trade association, employer, or candidate bundled the gifts. Filers listed RESEARCHER; the receipts are attributed to C00401224 in this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov does not audit job titles against licenses or payroll.
Scientist, Research Scientist, and Analyst are other keys if stored separately. Researcher holds the occupation-wide $13,109,440. ACTBLUE holds committee C00401224. All occupations and All FEC ties keep the pair in the index. Scientist-coded ActBlue receipts sit on another page. Do not add the two keys. Do not claim donations funded USAspending awards.
More than a quarter of the Researcher grouping
The Researcher occupation grouping shows $13,109,440 in itemized individual money. The ActBlue cell is $3,756,419, or 28.7% of that total. The remaining $9,353,021 (71.3%) went to committees other than C00401224. Opening only this tie would hide that remainder.
Researcher keeps the $13,109,440 grouping and its other recipients. ACTBLUE keeps C00401224 volume from every occupation. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling occupation–committee cells so this join is not mistaken for an NSF award file, a lab census, or USAspending research grants.
A high-share ActBlue cell under Researcher
ACTBLUE received $3,756,419 from Researcher-coded receipts across 60,588 contributions. Dividing dollars by gifts gives about $62 per contribution. 60,588 lines are not 60,588 unique people. Repeat givers, multiple earmarks, and cycle stacking raise the contribution count. The packet does not publish a unique-donor figure for this cell.
The source note is explicit: these figures are FEC.gov aggregates of itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee, not independent expenditures. Committee-to-committee transfers and unitemized gifts are outside the $3,756,419 total. Scientist-coded ActBlue receipts sit on another page. Do not add the two keys. Do not claim donations funded USAspending awards.
Researcher gifts are not grant obligations
A 28.7% share of Researcher-coded dollars into C00401224 does not mean the occupation caused an election outcome, and it does not mean ActBlue is the occupation’s only political destination. Occupation-coded individual gifts and agency research obligations are different government files. This page reports the FEC join only. Occupation and committee are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards.
Quote $3,756,419 as 28.7% of $13,109,440 into C00401224, with 60,588 itemized lines, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Do not add sibling occupation keys. Do not fold independent expenditures into the cell. Do not treat 60,588 contributions as a headcount of people currently holding the job. Scientist, Research Scientist, and Analyst are other keys if stored separately.
How to cite Researcher × C00401224
A complete claim names Researcher and ACTBLUE (C00401224), then $3,756,419, 60,588 contributions, and 28.7% of $13,109,440, source FEC.gov. Keep both sides of the name whenever the dollars are quoted. The occupation hub still holds $9,353,021 outside this committee. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the committee, not either hub restated.
Mean gift $62 is $3,756,419 divided by 60,588 lines. It is not a typical check and not a contribution limit. Later FEC bulk files override this snapshot. Do not add $3,756,419 to $13,109,440. All occupations ranks sibling titles. All FEC ties lists other occupation–committee pages.
