Self Employed and Florida as about five percent of the occupation

Donor state FL plus occupation SELF EMPLOYED is the join. Florida dollars are $1,889,404. National dollars are $36,457,822. Contribution shares: 6.3% (10,659 of 169,112). Donor shares: 6.2% (448 of 7,177). Ten thousand six hundred fifty-nine contributions from 448 donors describes repeat itemized rows, not 10,659 unique Florida sole proprietors.

Do not stack SELF EMPLOYED with SELF-EMPLOYED (hyphenated), BUSINESS OWNER, and ENTREPRENEUR into a single Florida professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs. 448 Florida donors produced 10,659 contributions, about 23.8 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 23.6 rows per donor nationally. The arithmetic mean gift in this Florida cell is about $177, against about $216 nationwide.

SELF EMPLOYED as a real occupation label

SELF EMPLOYED is a filer-entered string. Hyphenated SELF-EMPLOYED, if stored as a different string, sits in another hub. BUSINESS OWNER is a sibling title, not this total. The $36,457,822 national total is SELF EMPLOYED only. 7,177 donors produced 169,112 contributions in that occupation bucket. This page does not split those 169,112 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Florida (FL).

448 Florida donors produced 10,659 contributions totaling $1,889,404. Donor state FL is the address on the record, not proof of a Florida license, and not a limit to Florida candidates. The leftover $34,568,418 is Self Employed-coded money from every other state combined on this extract.

Four hundred forty-eight Florida Self Employed donors

The Florida campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to FL. This join is only SELF EMPLOYED. Donor state FL is the address on the record, not proof of a Florida sole-proprietorship filing, and not a limit to Florida candidates. The Self Employed occupation hub without Florida still holds 94.8% of the $36,457,822.

Self Employed donations holds the $36,457,822 national occupation total. Florida 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.

Exact self as junk, BUSINESS OWNER, and awards

This page does not treat the grouping as the placeholder self or as an unemployment code. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. SELF EMPLOYED is not a Florida self-employment tax file. Donor state FL is not recipient geography. Exact self, unemployed, and homemaker are placeholder labels skipped elsewhere. SELF EMPLOYED is a real longer name and is written here.

Subtract the Florida dollars on this page from the national SELF EMPLOYED occupation total and the difference is $34,568,418 still coded SELF EMPLOYED in every other state combined. That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. A unique-donor count of 448 is not a person-level audit. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join.
