Closed mattmaiorana closed 11 years ago
I'm fixing this now - this happened for a few different reasons: 1) When importing the data, I forgot to delete contributions from companies that are sometimes coded as oil & gas, but we know never should be, such as Seven Eleven. These were properly ignored by the graph generation, but not in the chart reporting. Now they are being removed from the database, so it shouldn't be an issue. 2) I also forgot to remove contributions to PACs (such as Republican Senate Committee). Normally, this wouldn't be an issue, except that for some reason the source data assigns the same id to companies and people
I will close this issue once all the appropriate code is in place on the live server.

Also the case for Michael Rubio, etc. Think this is widespread bug.
Same with companies yearly vs. “Contributed”
CSV file seems to reflect the lower number - should also be updated

This is mostly fixed - there may still be some random edge cases, but pretty rare. I've started building out an infrastructure to identify these inconsistencies, but it will have to wait until phase 2.
