Veterinarian occupation money in the 2012 cycle

Veterinarian as occupation, 2012 as the cycle

Two FEC fields define the cell: occupation VETERINARIAN and election cycle 2012. Matching rows sum to $980,530, 1,447 contributions, and 580 donors. VETERINARIAN in 2012 is a clinical title on itemized receipts. FEC.gov does not verify DVM or VMD credentials. The occupation hub is $10,539,916 across every cycle in the aggregate. The 2012 cycle hub mixes every other occupation that used that year. Neither hub restates this intersection; this tie page exists because the two dimensions meet.

2012’s dollar share is 9.3% ($980,530 of $10,539,916). The remainder, $9,559,386, sits in other cycles on the occupation hub. Hundreds of donor keys and more than a thousand lines is a high-volume clinical cell, not a handful of practice owners. Correlation between a job title and a two-year FEC window is a reporting overlap, not causation of an election outcome. Itemized individual receipts are the coverage. Unitemized money never appears in $980,530.

The VETERINARIAN string across every cycle on file

$10,539,916 is the occupation-side denominator. It is not limited to 2012. Vet, Veterinary, and Animal Doctor are other occupation keys if stored as different strings. Adding those keys to $10,539,916 would be a researcher-built recode, not this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered on itemized individual receipts.

Open Veterinarian donations for the $10,539,916 roll. Open the 2012 election cycle hub for every occupation in that window. All occupations and All FEC ties place this pair beside other occupation-cycle pages without combining dollar figures.

580 donors and a four-figure mean gift

Dividing $980,530 by 1,447 contributions yields about $678 per gift. Dividing by 580 donors yields about $1,691 per donor. Gifts per donor average about 2.5 (1,447 ÷ 580). Those ratios describe this string in 2012, not payroll at firms that employ people with similar titles.

580 is a donor-key count inside the occupation × cycle aggregate, not a headcount of everyone who held the job in 2012. Repeat itemization, couples filing separately, and people who used the string on some receipts but not others all move the 580 figure. The cycle hub still holds every other occupation’s 2012 receipts beside this cell. This page is not a comparison of human-medicine MD strings to veterinary titles. Quote VETERINARIAN and 2012 together.

What Veterinarian dollars in 2012 are not

A 9.3% share of Veterinarian-coded dollars from 2012 does not mean the occupation caused those gifts, and it does not mean people with that title funded a policy outcome. Occupation and cycle are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Independent expenditures, committee-to-committee transfers, and unitemized gifts are out of scope.

Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger. This join does not claim that 2012 donations funded contracts or grants. Quote $980,530 as itemized individual receipts tagged VETERINARIAN in 2012, source FEC.gov, and stop there.

How to cite Veterinarian × 2012

A complete claim names Veterinarian and 2012, then $980,530, 1,447 contributions, 580 donors, and 9.3% of $10,539,916, source FEC.gov. Do not convert 580 keys into licensed or employed practitioners. Do not fold independent expenditures or USAspending awards into the cell. Keep both sides of the name—Veterinarian and 2012—whenever the dollars are quoted. Mean gift $678 and mean per donor $1,691 travel with those counts; they do not travel with a licensing board.

Occupation hub, 2012 hub, and other clinical titles

The occupation hub still holds $9,559,386 outside 2012. Most of the $10,539,916 roll is not this cycle’s cell. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the year, not either hub restated. Vet, Veterinary, and Animal Doctor are other occupation keys if stored as different strings. Those titles are not parents of VETERINARIAN on this page. Gifts per donor in 2012 average about 2.5. That ratio is 1,447 divided by 580, not a measure of turnout.
