Student political contributions from Connecticut

Student and Connecticut as a small donor-count slice

326 unique-donor rows in Connecticut sit inside a national unique-donor count of 12,200 for STUDENT. That is 2.7% of donors and 2.1% of dollars ($3,051,691 of $142,935,090). Five thousand two hundred three contributions from 326 donors describes repeat itemized rows, not 5,203 unique Connecticut students.

Do not stack STUDENT with GRADUATE STUDENT, COLLEGE STUDENT, and TEACHER into a single Connecticut professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs. 326 Connecticut donors produced 5,203 contributions, about 16.0 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 18.6 rows per donor nationally. The arithmetic mean gift in this Connecticut cell is about $587, against about $631 nationwide.

STUDENT as typed, not an enrollment census

STUDENT is a filer-entered string. COLLEGE STUDENT and GRADUATE STUDENT, if stored separately, sit in other hubs. This join is STUDENT only. The $142,935,090 national total is STUDENT only. 12,200 donors produced 226,355 contributions in that occupation bucket. This page does not split those 226,355 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Connecticut (CT).

326 Connecticut donors produced 5,203 contributions totaling $3,051,691. Donor state CT is the address on the record, not proof of a Connecticut license, and not a limit to Connecticut candidates. The leftover $139,883,399 is Student-coded money from every other state combined on this extract.

Three hundred twenty-six Connecticut Student donors

The Connecticut campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to CT. This join is only STUDENT. Donor state CT is the address on the record, not proof of Connecticut campus enrollment, and not a limit to Connecticut candidates. The Student occupation hub without Connecticut still holds 97.9% of the $142,935,090.

Student donations holds the $142,935,090 national occupation total. Connecticut 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.

Registrar files, Ohio as a sibling, and awards

This page does not treat Connecticut Student dollars as a campus enrollment file or as a student-loan ledger. 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. STUDENT is not a Connecticut university registrar file. Donor state CT is not recipient geography. A three-digit unique-donor count is not a ranking of Connecticut campuses as more political.

Subtract the Connecticut dollars on this page from the national STUDENT occupation total and the difference is $139,883,399 still coded STUDENT 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 326 is not a person-level audit. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join.

Do not treat donor state as a claim that the money stayed inside Connecticut races. Independent expenditures and USAspending awards remain other government files.
