THE 2016 COMMITTEE Super PAC — 2016 cycle receipts

THE 2016 COMMITTEE joined to cycle 2016

A pac-cycle page exists because two FEC dimensions meet. One side is THE 2016 COMMITTEE (C00569905), stored as an independent expenditure-only committee (FEC type O). The other is election cycle 2016. $15,020,143.14 is the receipt total on that intersection. It is not the 2016 national cycle sum across every committee, and it is not THE 2016 COMMITTEE's receipts in any other even-year window. Other even-year cells for C00569905, if stored, are other slugs. This URL is C00569905 in cycle 2016 only.

LobbyVault does not treat this URL as a donor-detail page. No contributor names appear in the packet. The packet flags isSuperPac 1, so Super PAC is the correct label on this join. Source: FEC.gov. Campaign contributions are not USAspending obligations; this join does not claim that $15,020,143.14 funded federal awards. Committee designation is stored as U (unauthorized (designation U)). Cash on hand in the packet is $257,803.79. Individual contributions stored for this cell are $12,851,479.91.

C00569905 as type O Super PAC

Committee C00569905 files as THE 2016 COMMITTEE. Type O is an independent expenditure-only committee (FEC type O). The packet flags isSuperPac 1, so Super PAC is the correct label on this join. The committee hub at /committees/C00569905/ mixes every cycle this committee appears in; this tie isolates 2016 only. Adding other-cycle receipts from that hub into $15,020,143.14 would break the join. THE 2016 COMMITTEE is the stored FEC name. Designation U is unauthorized. Individual contributions $12,851,479.91 sit inside receipts $15,020,143.14.

All committees at /committees/ still lists every other filer. Those rows are not this cell. Keep C00569905 on the citation so a similar public name cannot swallow this 2016 total.

The name year and the cycle year happen to match

Federal election cycles on FEC.gov are two-year windows tagged by the even year of the election. 2016 is that tag, not a single calendar year of January-only activity. The cycle hub at /election-cycles/2016/ lists many committees; THE 2016 COMMITTEE is one row in that ranking extract. $15,020,143.14 belongs only to this committee in that window. 2016 is a presidential FEC two-year tag. The cycle hub still lists other Super PACs as other rows.

All FEC ties at /ties/ collect other committee × cycle pairs and other LobbyVault joins. Opening a sibling tie does not change $15,020,143.14 on this URL. Correlation is not causation: a large 2016 receipt total does not prove why money moved or who sent it.

2016 Super PAC receipts versus disbursements

Receipts $15,020,143.14 and disbursements $14,762,339.35 are separate FEC columns. Receipts exceed disbursements by $257,803.79 in this extract. Neither figure is an independent-expenditure-only total unless the packet’s Super PAC flag says so. This extract does not split operating expenditures, transfers, or refunds. Receipts sit slightly above disbursements. Cash on hand is stored as $257,803.79.

Mean dollars per donor cannot be computed: the packet has no contribution count and no unique-donor count. Unitemized receipts, if any, are not separated here. Quote $15,020,143.14 and $14,762,339.35 as committee-side cycle totals from FEC.gov. Committee designation is stored as U (unauthorized (designation U)). Cash on hand in the packet is $257,803.79. Individual contributions stored for this cell are $12,851,479.91.

A matching name year is not a second dollar column

This join does not name donors, unique contributors, or employers. It does not convert campaign receipts into USAspending obligations. FEC reports and federal award tables are different datasets even when a famous name overlaps. The digits 2016 in the committee name are a brand string, not a second receipt total.

Restating the join without new numbers: THE 2016 COMMITTEE in 2016 is $15,020,143.14 receipts and $14,762,339.35 disbursements on FEC.gov. Type O; isSuperPac 1. Not a donor page. Not a lifetime committee total. Not a national cycle total. Not a USAspending award sum. Type O, isSuperPac 1, C00569905 × 2016. Name year 2016 matches the cycle tag; dollars remain one pair.
