Venture Capital as a firm-phrase join with California

Occupation VENTURE CAPITAL and donor state CA together sum to $10,267,841, 3,549 contributions, and 298 donors. The occupation hub is $16,170,796, 7,964 contributions, and 776 donors. California’s share of dollars is 63.5%; of contributions, 44.6% (3,549 of 7,964); of donors, 38.4% (298 of 776).

298 California donors produced 3,549 contributions totaling $10,267,841. That is 63.5% of the $16,170,796 Venture Capital occupation total. The leftover $5,902,955 is Venture Capital-coded money from every other state combined on this extract.

California’s 63.5% of Venture Capital-coded dollars ($10,267,841 of $16,170,796) comes from 298 of 776 donors. The remainder $5,902,955 is VENTURE CAPITAL in every other state. Keep the person-title hub (Venture Capitalist) on its own page. Unitemized gifts are omitted.

VENTURE CAPITAL versus the person title Venture Capitalist

VENTURE CAPITAL is a firm-phrase used as a job. VENTURE CAPITALIST, VC, and PRIVATE EQUITY are other labels. VENTURE CAPITALIST as a person title is a different occupation hub. This extract does not merge the two.

Seven hundred seventy-six donors produced 7,964 contributions totaling $16,170,796. California’s 298 donors are 38.4% of that count and 63.5% of dollars. A majority share of a firm-phrase bucket is still not an AUM ranking.

Two hundred ninety-eight California Venture Capital donors

298 California donors produced 3,549 contributions totaling $10,267,841. Donor state CA is the address on the contribution record, not proof of a California workplace, and not a limit to California candidates.

The California campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to CA. This join is only VENTURE CAPITAL. VENTURE CAPITALIST, VC, and PRIVATE EQUITY are other occupation strings if filers used them; they are not this page even when they share the CA state code.

Venture Capital donations without California still holds the remainder of the $16,170,796 occupation total. A California directory of workplaces would need employment data this FEC join does not contain.

A majority dollar share on a firm-phrase occupation

This page does not measure an AUM league table or a California GP census, and it does not claim that Venture Capital-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation.

VENTURE CAPITAL fragments against VENTURE CAPITALIST, VC, and PRIVATE EQUITY. Those strings, if used, never enter the $16,170,796 or the $10,267,841. Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. The join does not allocate the California dollars by recipient office or by in-state versus out-of-state committees.

Firm phrase and person title stay unadded

Subtract the California dollars on this page from the national Venture Capital occupation total and the difference is $5,902,955 still coded Venture Capital in every other state combined. That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. Venture Capital donations holds the unlabeled-by-state total; California campaign finance holds every occupation with this state code; all occupations and all FEC ties place this pair among other joins built the same way.

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 all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the California dollars, or only the Venture Capital national total, drops a key.

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.
