  • Why are some fields in Cam_Lobbyist prefixed with Reg, and why do they have possible values of NULL, 0, and -1?
  • What are expcont and compensation in Cam_LobbyistRegistration, and why are they boolean (with the strange 0 and -1 values)?
  • We appear to be missing LobbyistFilingPeriodType, LobbyistTransactionGroup, and LobbyistTransactionStatus, do we want these?
  • Names of organizations aren't normalized in LobbyistTransaction, which means that we can't tie transactions to the candidates/committees they're benefitting. Any way around this?
  • Data doesn't quite seem to line up between OP and the SOS site -- many lobbyist employers are missing from the SOS site, for example.
