Headline cell $335,349

Employer and occupation groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — University of Washington (UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON) and 2008 — sum to $335,349. 574 itemized contributions and 240 unique donors produced it. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables.

Neither the University of Washington hub nor the 2008 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON is the stored employer string. UW, U OF WASHINGTON, UNIV OF WASHINGTON, and WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY are other keys — the last is a different institution if stored that way. A 2010 University of Washington cycle page exists as a separate join; do not add it here. 240 unique donors are not a faculty census. LobbyVault does not merge neighboring spellings into $335,349. This URL exists because the two dimensions meet.

95.8% of University of Washington dollars sit outside 2008

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $8,069,612 ($8.1 million). The 2008 slice of $335,349 is about 4.2% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 95.8% ($7,734,263). Treating 2008 as the University of Washington FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $8,069,612 as the denominator for the 4.2% 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 2008 from being folded silently into $8,069,612.

Unique donors totaling 240

Dividing $335,349 by 574 contributions yields about $584 per itemized gift. Dividing by 240 donors yields about $1,397 per donor. Contributions per donor average about 2.4. Those means describe the arithmetic on the packet. They are not medians and not a party split.

240 unique donors are contributor identities, not a headcount of employees, members, or licensees. Retirees and household members who reuse a workplace or title can appear. Repeat gifts raise the contribution count faster than the donor count. The overlay for University of Washington 2008 holds the rows. This packet does not publish donor names; do not invent them.

Even-year mechanics for 2008

The 2008 election cycle hub includes every stored employer for that window. University of Washington is one cell in that matrix. This packet does not publish a cycle-wide denominator, so no national share is stated. Open the 2008 election cycle to drop the employer filter and University of Washington to drop the year. 2008 is a presidential even-year window on FEC.gov; that calendar label does not explain $335,349.

Gifts from both years of the two-year FEC window sit in the $335,349 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 574 contributions, the 240 unique donors, and the 4.2% share of $8,069,612.

Neighbor strings are other keys

Itemized individual receipts are the universe. Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and PAC disbursements sit outside $335,349. 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. FEC individual contributions are not USAspending obligations. Do not add $335,349 to federal spending figures.

Correlation between an employer or occupation string and a cycle year is not causation. The records show a text match, a date window, 240 donors, and 574 contributions. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON is the stored employer string. UW, U OF WASHINGTON, UNIV OF WASHINGTON, and WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY are other keys — the last is a different institution if stored that way. A 2010 University of Washington cycle page exists as a separate join; do not add it here. 240 unique donors are not a faculty census. Cite the exact stored string UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON crossed with 2008. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages.

Using All FEC ties without mixing 2008 cells

Start with $335,349, then University of Washington 2008 for rows, then the industry hub or the 2008 election cycle if a filter needs to come off. Citation template: University of Washington, 2008, $335,349, 574 contributions, 240 donors, 4.2% of $8,069,612, source FEC.gov. Keep neighboring spellings and occupation titles out of the total unless they grouped to this exact string UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON.

The 4.2% share, the 240-donor count, and the $584 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.

$1,397 per donor is a mean. One large itemized gift and many small ones can produce the same average. The overlay, not this prose, shows the distribution.
