DEL MAR, CA

63,152 lines carrying $17,811,260

The headline pair is $17,811,260 and 63,152 lines. The implied average is about $282. Cite both numbers. Quoting only the dollars drops the line-count shape of the DEL MAR book. San Diego County filers typed DEL MAR with state CA.

Del Mar is a two-word coastal string. La Jolla rows that list SAN DIEGO or LA JOLLA sit on other hubs. Solana Beach and Encinitas are neighboring North County keys, not subsets. 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 $17,811,260 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of DEL MAR gave. The 63,152 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints DEL MAR together with La Jolla, Solana Beach, and Encinitas, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $17,811,260 on 63,152 DEL MAR, CA rows, mean near $282. Keep the stored spelling DEL MAR in the citation.

Why DEL MAR on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Del Mar give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city DEL MAR, CA total $17,811,260 across 63,152 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. No. DEL MAR, CA is the stored two-word string. San Diego is a different city key.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $17,811,260. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $282 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city DEL MAR, CA?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city DEL MAR, CA total $17,811,260 across 63,152 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 Del Mar. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $282 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

Is Del Mar counted as San Diego on this extract?

No. DEL MAR, CA is the stored two-word string. San Diego is a different city key. LobbyVault counts 63,152 itemized contributions for DEL MAR, CA against $17,811,260. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 63,152 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does the Del Mar total include only residents?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed DEL MAR with state CA. Office addresses and mail that list Del Mar can be part of $17,811,260 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 63,152-line count follows the same rule.

Are Del Mar numbers from FEC.gov?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $17,811,260 and 63,152 lines for DEL MAR, 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.
