Ft Worth, TX political money — 2010 cycle

2010 dollars from Ft Worth, TX donors

Filter one is donor city Ft Worth, TX (FT WORTH). Filter two is election cycle 2010. The intersection is $193,117 on 131 itemized rows. Filter one without filter two is $16,004,978. 2010's share of that city stack is 1.21%; other cycles hold $15,811,861 (98.8%). A larger minority of the city stack than many city-cycle joins, still well under half for Ft Worth in 2010. Those are ratios of two packet facts, not a comparison with other metros.

A city hub for Ft Worth, TX still includes every even-year window. A cycle hub for 2010 still includes every donor city. Neither hub is this page. The 131 receipts and $193,117 appear only when both the city string and the cycle tag match. Matching columns is not evidence of motive, party, or a local recipient. Committees that received the money can be anywhere the FEC files.

City is a filer-entered field. The 2010 cycle is a midterm two-year FEC window, a midterm window without a presidential general. The window label does not interpret the $193,117. Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by donor city and election cycle.

Reading the Ft Worth citywide total

$16,004,978 is the all-cycle city total for FT WORTH in TX. It is not 2010 alone. Subtract $193,117 and the other-cycle remainder is $15,811,861. Texas state pages still mix Ft Worth with every other city in the state. The city total is a sum of itemized individual dollars attached to this city string, not a population count and not unique people.

The stored city is the FEC string FT WORTH in Texas — Fort Worth as abbreviated on itemized receipts. Dallas, Arlington, and Fort Worth spelled out as FORT WORTH would be a different city label if that spelling survived aggregation separately. Keep the state key: $16,004,978 is TX only. The size of the city stack ($16,004,978) and the size of the 2010 slice ($193,117, 1.21%) answer different questions. Open the city hub for the unfiltered city; open this tie for Ft Worth in 2010. Recipient location is not donor city.

How FEC tags the 2010 cycle

On FEC.gov, 2010 is a cycle tag spanning two calendar years, not a single January–December cut. Within that tag, Ft Worth, TX shows $193,117 and 131 itemized gifts. $193,117 divided by 131 is about $1,474 per row. That quotient is not a median, not a typical household, and not a unique-donor average. Unique donors are not in these facts.

Unitemized gifts under the federal itemization threshold never enter this join. Transfers between committees and independent expenditures live on other tables. 131 itemized rows is a sizable absolute count of receipts for this join. The 2010 national cycle page and the Texas state page remain the wider cuts; this path is only Ft Worth × 2010.

2010 as a percentage of Ft Worth

Divide $193,117 by $16,004,978 and 2010 is 1.21% of Ft Worth, TX's stacked itemized individual dollars. Divide $15,811,861 by $16,004,978 and other cycles are 98.8%. Those identities use only packet facts. They are not Ft Worth's share of Texas, not Ft Worth's share of the 2010 national cycle, and not a turnout statistic.

1.21% (dollars) and 131 (rows) should not be collapsed into one story. This packet has no all-cycle row count, so a row percentage cannot be stated. Treating 1.21% as a national-cycle share would swap the denominator; that national total is not in the facts.

Itemization limits and averages

The page's unit is 131 itemized rows totaling $193,117. Repeat givers, multiple committees, and spelling variants of FT WORTH can inflate row counts relative to people. This file does not name donors and does not invent a unique-person figure. It also does not rank Ft Worth among Texas cities.

$1,474 is $193,117 / 131. Occupation, employer, and committee tables are separate joins. Nothing on this page splits the $193,117 by industry or office. If the receipt city was not FT WORTH, the dollar is not in this 2010 cell.

Caveats on city-cycle joins

No ranking, no wave language, no inference about Texas public opinion. Donor city Ft Worth is not campaign city. A TX receipt address does not imply a Texas candidate. Later FEC amendments can change $193,117 or $16,004,978. Live hubs override this prose if they differ.
