State Farm and the 2014 FEC election cycle
$566,600 in itemized individual contributions is the 2014-cycle join for the employer/occupation grouping State Farm. FEC.gov aggregates count 381 contributions from 237 donors. The same string totals $3,826,299 across every cycle in this table, so the cell is about 14.8% of the lifetime bucket — a self-reported label meeting a two-year window, not State Farm’s PAC and not a property-casualty premium total.

State Farm as stored text, 2014 as cycle
Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — State Farm and 2014 — sum to $566,600. 381 itemized contributions and 237 unique donors produced it. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables. 2014 is a midterm even-year window; that fact describes the FEC calendar, not which contests received the money.
Neither the State Farm hub nor the 2014 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. State Farm is stored form text, not a verified employer file. 237 donors and 381 lines in 2014 matched that word. Independent agents who typed their own LLC instead of State Farm sit in other buckets. STATE FARM INSURANCE, STATE FARM AGENT, and STATE FARM INS are other keys. This page is the exact grouped string State Farm as stored.
14.8% of the State Farm roll
The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $3,826,299. The 2014 slice of $566,600 is about 14.8% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 85.2%. Treating 2014 as the State Farm FEC story would ignore that remainder. The share is a scale check, not a peak-year ranking and not proof of a coordinated program.
Treat $3,826,299 as the denominator for the 14.8% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, not assets under management, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2014 from being folded silently into $3,826,299. Federal awards in other databases remain a different dataset; sharing a calendar year does not turn these gifts into contracts or grants.
381 contributions from 237 donors
Dividing $566,600 by 381 contributions yields about $1,487 per itemized gift. Dividing by 237 donors yields about $2,391 per donor. Contributions per donor average about 1.6. Those means describe the arithmetic on the packet. They are not medians, not a party split, and not a typical-gift claim. Agent offices and the two-word State Farm key remain separate unless grouped here.
237 unique donors are contributor identities, not a headcount of employees, licensees, or members. Retirees and household members who reuse a workplace or title can appear. Repeat gifts raise the contribution count faster than the donor count. The overlay for State Farm 2014 holds the rows. Recipients can include candidate committees, party committees, leadership PACs, and Super PACs; this join does not split those buckets in the headline facts.
2014 as the cycle dimension
The 2014 election cycle hub includes every stored employer for that window. State Farm is one cell in that matrix. This packet does not publish a cycle-wide denominator, so no national share is stated. Open the 2014 election cycle to drop the employer filter and State Farm to drop the year. Gifts from both years of the two-year FEC window sit in the $566,600 cell because the cycle is a two-year tag, not a single Tuesday.
That mechanical fact is easy to forget when a searcher wants an election-night number. The overlay is where dates become visible. This join publishes the cycle total, the 381 contributions, the 237 unique donors, and the 14.8% share of $3,826,299. Correlation between an employer or occupation string and a cycle year is not causation. The records show a text match, a date window, 237 donors, and 381 contributions.
Titles the Commission does not verify
Itemized individual receipts are the universe. Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and PAC disbursements sit outside $566,600. STATE FARM INSURANCE, STATE FARM AGENT, and STATE FARM INS are other keys. Independent agents who typed their own LLC instead of State Farm are counted elsewhere unless the treasurer grouped them to this exact string. Agent offices and the two-word State Farm key remain separate unless grouped here. The page is not State Farm’s PAC and not a property-casualty premium total.
LobbyVault ranks grouped employer text. State Farm is the spelling as committees stored it. Researchers who want a combined family of neighboring labels must recode after export. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. Sharing an employer string and a calendar year does not attach a motive, a client matter, or a federal award to the $566,600 cell.
Citing State Farm and 2014 together
Start with $566,600, then State Farm 2014 for rows, then the industry hub or the 2014 election cycle if a filter needs to come off. Citation template: State Farm, 2014, $566,600, 381 contributions, 237 donors, 14.8% of $3,826,299, source FEC.gov. Keep neighboring spellings and occupation titles out of the total unless they grouped to this exact string.
The 14.8% share, the 237-donor count, and the $1,487 mean gift belong to this intersection. Carry them onto a successor label or a sibling occupation word and they stop being facts from this packet. This prose is a packet snapshot. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov and the live overlay control. The join exists because two tables meet; it is not a restatement of one hub.
Questions
- How much did State Farm donors give in 2014?
- FEC.gov aggregates show $566,600 in itemized individual contributions for the State Farm grouping in the 2014 cycle, across 381 contributions and 237 donors. That sum is not a PAC total, not an independent-expenditure total, and not the $3,826,299 all-cycle figure on the industry hub. Unitemized gifts sit outside this cell.
- What share of State Farm FEC money is 2014?
- The grouping’s all-cycle total is $3,826,299. The 2014 cell of $566,600 is about 14.8% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 85.2% on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the State Farm hub holds other cycles; the 2014 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.
- Does this include only current State Farm employees or licensees?
- No. The bucket is the self-reported string State Farm. The FEC does not verify licenses or current jobs. Neighboring spellings and titles sit in other groupings unless they were stored as this exact key. This join reports the string match for 2014 only, totaling $566,600 from 237 donors on 381 contribution lines.
- Where is the overlay for the State Farm 2014 join?
- Open State Farm 2014 for the cycle overlay, State Farm for the grouping hub, and the 2014 election cycle for the year without this employer filter. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. This JSON file names the join; the overlay holds the itemized rows.
