Trader political contributions from Minnesota

Trader and Minnesota as a desk-stamp join

Occupation TRADER and donor state MN produce $94,595, 198 contributions, and 9 donors. The occupation hub is $11,610,856, 19,193 contributions, and 1,507 donors. Dollar, contribution, and donor shares cluster within a few points (0.8%, 1.0%, 0.6%). Minnesota tracks the national Trader mix rather than concentrating one of the three measures. Minnesota Trader contribution share sits slightly above dollar share on a one-word desk stamp.

Trader is a one-word desk stamp as typed, not a Stock Trader recode. Nearby strings — TRADER FLOOR, STOCK TRADER, COMMODITIES TRADER, and INVESTMENT BANKING — sit in other occupation hubs when filers used those words. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $94,595 or $11,610,856. Nebraska Trader in this slice is a different state filter on the same occupation string; do not add the two state totals on this Minnesota page.

Nine Minnesota donors produced 198 contributions, about 22.0 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 12.7 rows per donor nationally (19,193 contributions from 1,507 donors). Mean dollars per donor in this Minnesota cell are about $10,511, versus about $7,705 across the occupation. Those ratios are arithmetic on the six packet numbers, not a gift-size ranking of influence.

TRADER versus Stock Trader and Investment Banking

TRADER is filer-entered. The FEC file does not verify a Series license, an exchange seat, or a named Minnesota desk. The national grouping is 1,507 donors, 19,193 contributions, and $11,610,856.

Nineteen thousand one hundred ninety-three contributions from 1,507 donors shows repeat itemization nationwide. Minnesota’s 198 contributions from 9 donors is the MN-coded piece. This page does not split those rows by cycle, employer, or recipient committee. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Minnesota.

Nine Minnesota donors on a thin desk cell

Nine Minnesota donors produced 198 contributions totaling $94,595. Donor state MN is the address on the record, not proof of a Minnesota professional license, and not a limit to Minnesota candidates. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee.

The Minnesota campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to MN. This join is only TRADER. Subtract $94,595 from $11,610,856 and $11,516,261 remains coded Trader in every other state combined (18,995 contributions, 1,498 donors). That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties.

Contribution share a bit above dollar share on a desk stamp

This page does not measure trader output, does not rank firms, and does not claim that Trader-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Not a Minnesota securities-license extract, not an exchange-seat roster, and not a named-desk census.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Itemized individual contributions only. Firm names, license numbers, and employer strings are not in these six numbers. Donor state MN is not recipient geography.

Trading strings that stay unmerged

A unique-donor count is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total can hide that skew. Keeping $94,595, 198 contributions, and 9 donors on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Minnesota dollars, or only the Trader national total, drops a key.

Trader donations holds the $11,610,856 national occupation total. Minnesota campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and all FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. TRADER FLOOR, STOCK TRADER, COMMODITIES TRADER, is a different occupation string if a filer used it.

This relationship is not a forecast and not a ranking of influence. Occupation does not cause contributions, and donor state does not cause recipient geography. Public records, two fields, one intersection. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates; occupation labels are filer-entered. Nebraska Trader in this slice is a different state filter on the same occupation string; do not add the two state totals on this Minnesota page.
