Third Point Partners and the 2014 FEC cycle
$1,299,000 in itemized individual contributions is the 2014-cycle join for the Third Point Partners employer grouping. FEC.gov aggregates record that sum as 15 contributions from one donor. The grouping’s all-cycle total is $9,092,405, so this midterm cell is about 14.3% of the lifetime bucket — a concentrated hedge-fund employer string, not a fund-level political account.

Third Point Partners crossed with 2014
The employer hub stacks every cycle for Third Point Partners. The 2014 cycle hub stacks every employer. This page keeps the overlap: $1,299,000. Fifteen itemized gifts and a donor count of one produced it. The relationship is a filter pair, not a finding that the firm directed the gifts.
Average gift size is about $86,600 if you divide $1,299,000 by 15. That average is a ratio across possibly many committees and both years of the midterm. It is not a typical check and not proof that Third Point Partners as an entity authorized the giving.
Employer text is self-reported. Related legal names such as Third Point LLC may or may not sit in this same bucket depending on grouping.
About 14% of a $9 million grouping
$9,092,405 is every cycle combined. $1,299,000 in 2014 is about 14.3% of that stack. Other windows still hold about 86%. A midterm cell above 14% is a substantial chapter for this employer string, not a majority of the lifetime total.
With one donor in the cell, year-to-year swings can be that person’s calendar rather than a change in a workforce. The table shows the split; it does not show the reason.
One donor, 15 contributions
A donor count of 1 next to 15 contributions means repeated itemized activity by the same unique-donor key inside 2013–2014. Fifteen rows can still cover several committees. The join publishes the counts, not the recipient list.
Individual receipts remain personal gifts tagged with an employer string. They are not the same as a management-company PAC or a super PAC financed by a fund.
2014 as the cycle filter
2014 covers federal activity in 2013–2014. Third Point Partners’ $1,299,000 is one employer slice of that window. Ranking employer cells as influence would add a claim the FEC individual file does not carry.
Midterm national totals are usually lower than presidential-year totals. That seasonal fact does not assign a reason to this donor.
Fifteen rows, one key, 14% of the bucket
Third Point Partners in 2014 is a one-donor cell: $1,299,000, 15 gifts, average gift size near $86,600. Related legal names such as Third Point LLC may or may not sit in this same bucket. The Commission does not certify that the donor was a partner, employee, or outside investor.
A 14.3% midterm share of $9,092,405 is a substantial chapter. Other cycles still hold about 86%. With one unique-donor key, a later amendment can move a large fraction of the 2014 numerator. Keep the industry hub in view.
Positions, activists’ letters, and portfolio names do not appear in these facts. Super PAC independent expenditures are a different FEC form family. Federal awards are USAspending. This join is employer text × 2014 individual receipts only.
Fifteen contributions totaling $1,299,000 from one unique-donor key is a short, heavy midterm list. Average gift size near $86,600 is a ratio. A 14.3% share of $9,092,405 is a substantial chapter that still leaves most of the grouping in other cycles. Related legal names such as Third Point LLC may sit in other buckets.
Activist-investor narratives, position lists, and letters to boards are not in these facts. Super PAC independent expenditures are other FEC forms. The overlay is where the 15 rows become committees. One-donor cells move when receipts are amended; re-check the industry hub’s $9,092,405 denominator after restatements. USAspending matching still needs a vendor identifier this join does not carry.
What the employer-cycle join is not
The page does not identify funds, positions, or counterparties. It does not show party. It does not link FEC gifts to USAspending awards, even if a related legal name appears in both systems.
Receipts are on the Third Point Partners 2014 overlay. Other years are on the industry hub. Other 2014 employers are on the cycle hub. Other joins are on the ties index.
