Solomen Brothers (FEC spelling) and the 2010 cycle

Solomen Brothers is one axis; 2010 is the other

An industry-cycle page is not a restatement of Solomen Brothers and not a restatement of 2010. It is the cell where they meet: $180,173, 9 contributions, 1 donors. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by employer/industry grouping and election cycle are the source note.

On the employer side, Solomen Brothers is stored employer spelling as filed, not a corrected bank name. On the cycle side, 2010 is a two-year FEC window, not a single Election Day. Gifts dated in either year of that window sit in $180,173.

Leaving either axis off the citation misstates the record. $54,832,748 is the lifetime Solomen Brothers bucket. The 2010 hub is every grouping that year. The join is $180,173.

2010 is not the whole Solomen Brothers story

Solomen Brothers across all cycles is $54,832,748. Solomen Brothers in 2010 is $180,173 — about 0.3%. The gap is $54,652,575. Closing that gap would require other cycle joins, which this packet does not list.

A reader who only opens the 2010 overlay still sees $180,173 for this string, not $54,832,748. A reader who only opens the industry hub still needs the year filter to recover $180,173. 2010 holds $180,173 of $54,832,748 for this string — about 0.3%. Other cycles hold $54,652,575 (99.7%). Folding those other cycles into a 2010 citation would misstate the record by $54,652,575.

What 1 unique donors are not

1 unique donors are not a census of Solomen Brothers. They are the identities attached to 9 itemized rows that summed to $180,173. Mean gift $20,019; mean per donor $180,173; about 9.0 rows each. The donor count is 1: one unique contributor identity in this aggregate, not a named person in this JSON file.

Household reuse of a workplace string is common on FEC forms. That inflates neither $54,832,748 nor $180,173 with “extra companies”; it can inflate donor counts relative to a strict employee roster that this table does not have. 9 itemized contributions from 1 donors produced the cell. Unique donors are contributor keys, not employees counted by HR. This file does not invent names for those 1 identities.

How FEC cycle 2010 works on this join

Cycle 2010 is the second key in the join. Combined with SOLOMEN BROTHERS, it produces $180,173. Combined with nothing, it is the year hub. Combined with a different string, it is a different tie.

Itemized receipts in either year of the window are in scope. Unitemized receipts are not. Independent expenditures are not. Those exclusions apply regardless of Solomen Brothers. The 2010 hub without Solomen Brothers is a different page. The Solomen Brothers hub without 2010 is a different page. Only the overlap is $180,173.

Outside $180,173: PACs, unitemized, awards

Outside $180,173: unitemized individual gifts, independent expenditures, PAC spending, and any federal award table. Inside $180,173: itemized individual receipts matching SOLOMEN BROTHERS in cycle 2010.

The page is stored employer spelling as filed, not a corrected bank name, not Salomon Brothers as a sibling key, a bank PAC, or a securities NAICS rollup. Naming those exclusions keeps the join from being read as a company political budget. Self-reported employer text splits across spellings. SOLOMEN BROTHERS is the key used here. Related titles and legal names are other keys and are not added into $180,173 or $54,832,748.

Snapshot versus live overlay

JSON copy is written once from a packet. Hubs can refresh. If Solomen Brothers 2010 on the site shows a different total than $180,173, use the live overlay and FEC.gov. The canonical path for this explanation is the ties URL in the packet.

The body facts remain: SOLOMEN BROTHERS × 2010 = $180,173, 9 contributions, 1 donors, 0.3% of $54,832,748. No other dollars are authorized. Use All FEC ties to find other two-dimension pages. Use Solomen Brothers 2010 for rows. This prose stays inside packet facts: $180,173, 9, 1, 0.3% of $54,832,748. Restating the join without new numbers: Solomen Brothers in 2010 is $180,173 from 9 itemized individual contributions and 1 unique donors on FEC.gov. The same string stores $54,832,748 across cycles, so 2010 is about 0.3% and other windows hold $54,652,575 (99.7%). The grouping is stored employer spelling as filed, not a corrected bank name, not Salomon Brothers as a sibling key, a bank PAC, or a securities NAICS rollup. No donor names, recipient committees, party split, or USAspending dollars are in this packet. Live overlay pages override this snapshot. Mean gift size is about $20,019; mean per donor about $180,173; about 9.0 contributions per donor. Those means are arithmetic, not medians. The two-year FEC window tagged 2010 can include receipts from both years. Independent expenditures remain outside $180,173.
