Correlation is not a funding path
USAspending rows for the same calendar years are a different dataset. This join does not claim that $431,525 funded federal awards, or that federal awards funded the gifts. Campaign contributions are not federal awards. Geography or employer text on a contribution line does not convert the gift into an obligation.
Unitemized gifts and corporate treasury schedules are outside $431,525. LobbyVault does not treat 1 unique donor as a headcount of everyone associated with THE MORNING STAR CO in 2012. Mean gift size near $43,152 and mean per donor near $431,525 are ratios on this presidential-year cell. They are not a 10-K political-activity line.

Keep both join sides in every citation of the headline total. This /ties/ page is a snapshot of packet facts, not a substitute for live FEC.gov bulk files. Amended reports can move either side of the join; the newer extract controls. Internal links stay on the packet hrefs only.
