Vice Chairman donations in the 2008 FEC cycle

Filers who listed Vice Chairman itemized $813,169 in FEC individual contributions in the 2008 presidential cycle — 387 receipts from 197 donors. Chairman without vice is a different occupation key. The occupation string VICE CHAIRMAN sums to $12.3 million ($12,282,516) across harvested cycles; this 2008 cell is 6.6% of that sum. FEC.gov stores the occupation as typed. This page is the join of the Vice Chairman occupation table and the 2008 election-cycle table, not a restatement of either hub.

Key figures

  • Vice Chairman × 2008: $813,169.
  • 387 receipts from 197 donors.
  • 6.6% of the $12,282,516 VICE CHAIRMAN total.
  • Filer-entered occupation; the employer’s PAC are a different table.

Vice Chairman × 2008

VICE CHAIRMAN plus cycle 2008 equals $813,169. That figure is the harvested sum of itemized individual contributions in which the occupation field matched this string and the two-year federal election cycle was 2008. Chairman, vice chair, vice-chair, and board member are other keys if those words appear. This join does not recode the label into a board-of-directors census, an SEC director list, or a compensation-survey title file. Other cycle amounts are not fields in this packet.

Parent hubs: Vice Chairman donations at /occupations/vice-chairman/ and the 2008 election cycle at /election-cycles/2008/. All occupations lists neighboring titles. All FEC ties keeps each occupation-year cell on its own path so a reader can move without mixing $813,169 into another year or another string. Do not add those parent pages into this cell.

Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Vice Chairman in 2008 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $813,169. Corporate board versus bank versus nonprofit vice chairs is unpublished for Vice Chairman in 2008. The occupation page and the 2008 cycle page are the next clicks for named committees.

VICE CHAIRMAN, not chairman

$12.3 million ($12,282,516) belongs to the exact string VICE CHAIRMAN across harvested cycles. It is not a board-of-directors census, an SEC director list, or a compensation-survey title file. People who wrote nearby wording — chairman, vice chair, vice-chair, and board member — sit in other rows if the characters differ. The 2008 slice is 6.6% of that title bucket. Share of VICE CHAIRMAN is not share of all 2008 receipts.

Amended individual contribution reports can move $813,169. A later harvest of the same occupation string can move $12,282,516. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Live Vice Chairman donations and the live 2008 election cycle pages are the tables; this prose is a packet snapshot. Itemized individual contributions are the only receipt class in this cell. Unitemized gifts below the itemization threshold, in-kind goods, and bundled contributions without this occupation string are outside $813,169.

387 vice-chairman receipts from 197 donors

197 donors and 387 receipts — about 2.0 lines per donor. Mean per receipt about $2,101; mean per donor about $4,128. Those ratios are arithmetic on two harvested integers. They are not medians, not typical gifts, and not a claim about income. 197 donors makes this a small occupation-cycle cell. No median is published in this packet.

Repeat gifts add receipts. 387 is a line count, not 197 one-time gifts; receipts sit close to the donor count, so many people in the cell appear on a small number of lines. Corporate board versus bank versus nonprofit vice chairs is not encoded in the occupation string. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by VICE CHAIRMAN. People who left occupation blank, used a nearby spelling, or listed a more specific title are not in $813,169.

Board title versus chairman and PAC tables

Cite $813,169 as Vice Chairman in 2008. Cite $12,282,516 as this title’s occupation total. Do not add the employer’s PAC to either figure. Those filings are committee reports. Mixing PAC spending with $813,169 would blend FEC tables. All occupations lists neighboring titles so a searcher can open the other string’s cycle cell rather than rescale 6.6%.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. This join does not recode VICE CHAIRMAN into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a license class. If a researcher needs those crosswalks, they start from the raw string. Correlation is not causation: a presidential-year total does not prove the occupation’s motives, and it does not attach these gifts to any federal spending dataset.

How to cite vice-chairman money in 2008

A clean footnote names occupation VICE CHAIRMAN, election cycle 2008, $813,169 in itemized individual contributions, 387 receipts, and 197 donors on FEC.gov. Keep the itemized word. Mean dollars remain about $2,101 per line and $4,128 per donor in the cell. If the live Vice Chairman donations overlay has refreshed, quote the overlay. Do not treat 387 as unique workers in the trade.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Vice Chairman donations rolls every cycle into one VICE CHAIRMAN running total. The 2008 election cycle rolls every occupation into one 2008 total. Only the Vice Chairman × 2008 overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 387 receipts and $813,169. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-cycle cells.
