Thomas H Lee Co political money — 2010 cycle

$855,651 in itemized individual contributions is the 2010-cycle join for the employer grouping Thomas H Lee Co. FEC.gov aggregates count 49 contributions from 5 donors. The same employer string totals $16,493,576 across every cycle in this table, so the cell is about 5.2% of the lifetime bucket — filer-entered workplace text meeting a two-year window, not a private-equity PAC and not a finance NAICS total.

Key figures

  • Thomas H Lee Co × 2010 is $855,651 in itemized individual contributions.
  • The cell includes 49 contributions from 5 donors.
  • 2010 is about 5.2% of the grouping’s $16,493,576 all-cycle total.
  • The label is filer-entered form text, not a private-equity PAC and not a finance NAICS total.
  • FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.

Thomas H Lee Co as stored text, 2010 as cycle

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Thomas H Lee Co and 2010 — sum to $855,651. 49 itemized contributions and 5 unique donors produced it. The total is not a corporate treasury gift and is not the company’s PAC. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables.

Neither the Thomas H Lee Co hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. Thomas H Lee Co is an employer string, not a verified PE-firm census and not a fund PAC. 5 donors and 49 lines in 2010 matched that employer text. THOMAS H LEE, THL, LEE PARTNERS, and other private-equity spellings sit in other keys if filers typed them that way. This page is the stored string THOMAS H LEE CO.

LobbyVault keeps this two-key page so a reader can open Thomas H Lee Co 2010 without treating the industry hub as a cycle total or the 2010 cycle hub as an employer total. The overlay at the Thomas H Lee Co 2010 path holds the itemized rows for this cell. This prose publishes the packet snapshot: $855,651, 49 contributions, 5 donors, and 5.2% of $16,493,576.

5.2% of the Thomas H Lee Co roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $16,493,576. The 2010 slice of $855,651 is about 5.2% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 94.8% ($15,637,925). Treating 2010 as the Thomas H Lee Co FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $16,493,576 as the denominator for the 5.2% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2010 from being folded silently into $16,493,576.

A 5.2% cell can sit next to larger or smaller even-year windows on the same Thomas H Lee Co hub. This packet does not publish those other cycle dollars, so they are not cited here. Open Thomas H Lee Co to drop the year filter. Open the 2010 election cycle to drop the employer filter.

49 contributions from 5 donors

Dividing $855,651 by 49 contributions yields about $17,462 per itemized gift. Dividing by 5 donors yields about $171,130 per donor. Contributions per donor average about 9.8. Those means describe the arithmetic on the packet. They are not medians and not a party split.

5 unique donors is a small headcount. Repeat gifts raise the contribution count (49 lines) faster than the donor count. A one- or few-donor cell is still itemized individual contributions grouped by employer text — not a corporate contribution, not a PAC, and not a unique-employee census. Retirees and household members who reuse a workplace or title can appear. The overlay for Thomas H Lee Co 2010 holds the rows.

49 is a receipt count, not a unique-person census beyond the 5 donor figure already in the packet. A person who gave twice is two lines inside the 49. Unitemized gifts never appear in $855,651.

2010 as the cycle dimension

The 2010 election cycle hub includes every stored employer for that window. Thomas H Lee Co is one cell in that matrix. This packet does not publish a cycle-wide denominator, so no national share is stated. Open the 2010 election cycle to drop the employer filter and Thomas H Lee Co to drop the year.

Gifts from both years of the two-year FEC window sit in the $855,651 cell because the cycle is a two-year tag, not a single Tuesday. That mechanical fact is easy to forget when a searcher wants an election-night number. The overlay is where dates become visible. This join publishes the cycle total, the 49 contributions, the 5 unique donors, and the 5.2% share of $16,493,576.

2010 is a midterm federal cycle on FEC.gov. That calendar label does not explain $855,651. This packet does not carry party splits, committee names, or occupation mix beyond the stored string THOMAS H LEE CO. Cite the two packet dollars — $855,651 for the 2010 slice and $16,493,576 for the Thomas H Lee Co book — and stop before assigning motive.

What the Commission does not verify

Itemized individual receipts are the universe. Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and PAC disbursements sit outside $855,651. Federal awards in other databases are different datasets. Sharing an employer string and a calendar year does not turn these gifts into contracts or grants. The page is not a private-equity PAC and not a finance NAICS total.

Correlation between an employer or occupation string and a cycle year is not causation. The records show a text match, a date window, 5 donors, and 49 contributions. THOMAS H LEE, THL, LEE PARTNERS, and other private-equity spellings sit in other keys if filers typed them that way. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages.

Do not read $855,651 as proof that Thomas H Lee Co “drove” the 2010 cycle or that 2010 “drove” the Thomas H Lee Co book. The join is two fields. If the live hubs disagree with $855,651 or 5 donors, the newer FEC extract controls. This snapshot is not a third disclosure system.

Citing Thomas H Lee Co and 2010 together

Start with $855,651, then Thomas H Lee Co 2010 for rows, then the industry hub or the 2010 election cycle if a filter needs to come off. Citation template: Thomas H Lee Co, 2010, $855,651, 49 contributions, 5 donors, 5.2% of $16,493,576, source FEC.gov. Keep neighboring spellings and occupation titles out of the total unless they grouped to this exact string THOMAS H LEE CO.

The 5.2% share, the 5-donor count, and the $17,462 mean gift belong to this intersection. Carry them onto a successor label or a sibling occupation word and they stop being facts from this packet. This prose is a packet snapshot. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov and the live overlay control.
