1 "Business owners, professionals, and their family" includes donors with filed titles of: business owner, president, CEO, CFO, founder, executive, engineer, programmer, physician, doctor, attorney, real estate broker/agent/developer, property owner, property investor, financial planner, finance manager, CPA, architect, director, manager, consultant, pharmacist, banker, insurance agent, and accountant — as well as family members (see note 2). "Teachers, public servants, and service workers" includes: teacher, professor, librarian, police officer, mayor, mechanic, bank teller, pastoral assistant, sales, instructor, coach, court reporter, firearms instructor, and similar titles. "Retired" and "not employed" are reported as filed.

2 "Their family" identifies donors who (a) filed a job title of unemployed, housewife, or homemaker and (b) share a last name with at least one other donor to the same candidate. Shared last names do not prove a family relationship — common surnames may produce false matches. This grouping surfaces a pattern, not an assertion of specific relationships.

3 All data from $100+ contributions filed with the City of Torrance through December 31, 2025 via Torrance NetFile. Contributions under $100 are not required to be itemized and are not included.
