Key figures

  • Mobile’s federal itemized city book is $33,896,317 across 84,161 contributions.
  • Montgomery and Huntsville are separate Alabama city keys.
  • Cite contributor city, dollars, and line count together.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Mobile’s Gulf book beside the capital

Eighty-four thousand one hundred sixty-one lines produce $33,896,317. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $403. Montgomery is $39,640,509 across 106,362 lines. Huntsville is $36,682,086 across 96,073 lines. Those are three Alabama city keys. Mobile’s pair is the Gulf Coast book, not a statewide sum.

Daphne, Fairhope, and Prichard are other nearby city strings. They are not inside $33,896,317 unless the filer typed MOBILE. Mobile County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.

Not Mississippi and not a port-employer census

Gulfport is a Mississippi city string. FEC.gov stored a city, not an employer. Recoding Mobile into a port map would be a different product. This packet publishes MOBILE, AL: $33,896,317 and 84,161 lines.

Office addresses can share the city field with household streets. Totals can include a PAC or joint-fundraising address when that is what filers typed. The 84,161 lines are receipts, not unique persons. Recheck both facts on the live hub after a later extract.

Questions

What does LobbyVault show for Mobile federal contributions?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city MOBILE, AL total $33,896,317 across 84,161 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Mobile residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
Is 84,161 the number of Mobile donors?
No. LobbyVault counts 84,161 itemized contribution lines for MOBILE, AL. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding people. This packet publishes no unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total is $33,896,317.
Does Mobile’s total include Montgomery or Daphne?
No, unless the filer typed MOBILE. Montgomery and Huntsville are separate Alabama city hubs. $33,896,317 is the MOBILE, AL match. The 84,161 lines follow the same rule. County and Gulf labels are not an FEC dimension on this hub.
How current is Mobile’s $33,896,317 figure?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $33,896,317 and 84,161 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Alabama non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls.

City is the contributor city on FEC itemizations. Totals can include PAC and joint-fundraising addresses, not only residents.
