BELVEDERE, CA

14,953 lines carrying $15,677,195

BELVEDERE shows 14,953 itemizations behind $15,677,195. That mix is a thinner stack with a high average line relative to high-line city books that post similar dollars on far more rows. The implied mean is about $1,048. Committee receipts that list a BELVEDERE address still sit in the same column as individual rows.

Belvedere is a thin Marin book: 14,953 lines against $15.7 million, a mean near $1,048. Tiburon and Sausalito are neighboring keys with their own pages. Belvedere, Illinois is a different city-and-state pair. The city total can include a PAC or joint-fundraising committee address when that is the city filers typed. LobbyVault does not recode those rows out of the city string. Read $15,677,195 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of Belvedere gave. The 14,953 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints Belvedere together with Tiburon, Sausalito, and Belvedere, Illinois, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $15,677,195 on 14,953 BELVEDERE, CA rows, mean near $1,048. Keep the stored spelling BELVEDERE in the citation.

Why BELVEDERE on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Belvedere give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city BELVEDERE, CA total $15,677,195 across 14,953 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. BELVEDERE, CA is the stored Marin city field. Tiburon is a different key on this extract. Belvedere, IL is another state pair.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $15,677,195. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $1,048 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city BELVEDERE, CA?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city BELVEDERE, CA total $15,677,195 across 14,953 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of people who live in Belvedere. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $1,048 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

Should Belvedere be added to Tiburon’s total?

No. BELVEDERE, CA is the stored Marin city field. Tiburon is a different key on this extract. Belvedere, IL is another state pair. LobbyVault counts 14,953 itemized contributions for BELVEDERE, CA against $15,677,195. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 14,953 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does the Belvedere total include only residents?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed BELVEDERE with state CA. Office addresses and mail that list Belvedere can be part of $15,677,195 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 14,953-line count follows the same rule.

Are Belvedere numbers from FEC.gov?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $15,677,195 and 14,953 lines for BELVEDERE, CA. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from CA are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
