Supervisor occupation money in the 2008 FEC cycle

How Supervisor meets the 2008 cycle

Supervisor in 2008 is $322,956, not $5,180,837. The larger figure is the occupation total across harvested cycles. Subtracting leaves $4,857,881 in other windows. SUPERVISOR is the typed title. Industry and employer are unpublished. Manager is a different occupation key.

A reader comparing Supervisor to a nearby title should switch occupation pages rather than rescale 6.2%. Manager, Shift Supervisor, and Operations Supervisor each need their own cycle cells. This file quotes SUPERVISOR × 2008 only.

Correlation is not causation. A presidential-year total for Supervisor does not prove motive, and it does not attach these gifts to any federal spending dataset. FEC individual receipts and USAspending awards are different tables.

Supervisor across harvested cycles

Other even-year joins for SUPERVISOR are not listed in this packet; they collectively hold $4,857,881 (93.8%). Citing 2008 as if it were the Supervisor lifetime total would overstate this cell by $4,857,881.

A later amendment that recodes occupation text can move a receipt out of SUPERVISOR. That would change 429, 226, and $322,956 together. Until a new harvest, the packet figures stand.

Receipt and donor counts for Supervisor in 2008

429 remaining larger than 226 is the expected pattern when identities give more than once. Repeat gifts add receipts. 429 is a line count, not 226 one-time gifts. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by SUPERVISOR.

Contributor keys can cover people who gave in more than one cycle. This page’s 226 count is the 2008 slice under SUPERVISOR only. Do not treat it as a lifetime donor census for Supervisor.

Where $322,956 sits inside Supervisor

The national 2008 hub still includes every other occupation. Occupation pages for Supervisor still include every other cycle. Only this join isolates Supervisor × 2008.

Other cycles that complete $5,180,837 are not itemized here. $4,857,881 is the residual only. Naming those other years would invent packet fields.

Itemized individual receipts only

FEC.gov stores the occupation as typed. This join uses SUPERVISOR. Manager, Shift Supervisor, and Operations Supervisor are other keys when those characters appear. LobbyVault does not recode the string into a BLS supervisory-occupation rollup or a firm org-chart extract.

State and ZIP cuts for Supervisor in 2008 are unpublished here. Adding a geography claim would invent a dimension. Stick to occupation × cycle.

Using the Supervisor and 2008 hubs

SUPERVISOR is a short generic label. People who wrote a longer supervisory title sit elsewhere if the characters differ. This 2008 cell is not a ranking of workplaces. Independent expenditures remain outside the cell. USAspending awards remain a different dataset. Do not write a funding trail from $322,956 to federal obligations.

Do not rank Supervisor as more or less politically active than another title. This packet has one occupation and one cycle. Comparison requires other cells.

The occupation string SUPERVISOR is copied from the FEC occupation field without a Bureau of Labor Statistics recode. Supervisor in 2008 remains $322,956 on 429 itemized lines from 226 donor keys. Neighboring English is a different row.

Readers who need committee names should leave this overlay and open the Supervisor occupation hub or the 2008 election-cycle hub. Those hubs are linked. This file does not invent committee names, donor names, or award recipients. $322,956 is an individual-contribution sum.

Itemization thresholds mean small gifts can exist outside $322,956. The packet does not estimate that omitted tail. Independent expenditures are a different FEC form class and are omitted from the Supervisor × 2008 cell. Unitemized receipts are omitted.

The remainder $4,857,881 belongs to other harvested cycles under the same occupation string. This page does not name those other years because they are not packet fields. Quote 2008 only for $322,956.

Self-reported occupation is not verified employment. A filer can type SUPERVISOR while holding a different payroll title. The harvest groups on the typed string. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates remain the source.

Questions

How is the Supervisor × 2008 number built?

Sum itemized individual contributions where occupation is SUPERVISOR and cycle is 2008. The harvest result is $322,956 from 429 receipts and 226 donors. No party or employer split is in the packet. FEC.gov is the source.

Can I add PAC totals to Supervisor in 2008?

Not on this page. $322,956 is individual receipts. Committee filings, including professional-association PACs, are another FEC table. Mixing them with 429 individual lines would blend form classes. Use the occupation or cycle hub for committee cuts if published there.

Why is Supervisor not recoded into a standard job code?

Because the facts are the filer-entered string SUPERVISOR. Recoding into a BLS supervisory-occupation rollup or a firm org-chart extract would invent a crosswalk. Manager, Shift Supervisor, and Operations Supervisor already show how nearby English splits across keys. Cite $322,956 for this string in 2008.

What remains outside the Supervisor 2008 cell?

$4,857,881 of the Supervisor occupation total sits in other cycles. Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and other occupation strings are also outside $322,956. Donor names are unpublished. The cell itself is 429 lines from 226 keys.
