University of California contributions received by Californians for a Balanced Budget

A 12-line cell totaling $500,000

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA is a university-employer string, not a campus appropriation. CALIFORNIANS FOR A BALANCED BUDGET AND BETTER ECONOMY is C30001580. The overlap is $500,000 from 12 itemized individual contributions. Do not invent donor names to fill a short list. The cell is not a UC system budget line or a student-aid USAspending award.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA is filer-entered employer text covering whatever campuses and units filers typed. CALIFORNIANS FOR A BALANCED BUDGET AND BETTER ECONOMY is C30001580. Twelve itemized lines totaling $500,000 is a sparse, high-mean cell. The packet does not name the twelve filers or the campuses they listed.

12 lines at about $41,667 each is $500,000 divided by 12. That mean is arithmetic, not a typical gift, not a contribution limit, and not a unique-donor census. Unitemized gifts never enter $500,000.

Californians for a Balanced Budget is not the leftover $9,556,583

About 5.0% of $10,056,583 is this cell. The leftover $9,556,583 sits on other committees under the same UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA grouping, or outside this recipient filter.

What a short line count still excludes

Independent expenditures by CALIFORNIANS FOR A BALANCED BUDGET AND BETTER ECONOMY, if any, are a different FEC table. $500,000 is itemized individual receipts only. It is not a 12-person faculty roster.

USAspending obligations that share a similar name, if any exist, are a different dataset. This join does not claim that $500,000 funded federal work. Campaign contributions are not federal awards. The cell is not a UC system budget line or a student-aid USAspending award.
