FRESNO, CA

Fresno’s volume relative to its dollars

One hundred forty-nine thousand seven hundred ninety-one lines produce $46,129,402. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $308. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a ranking of San Joaquin Valley giving. FEC.gov does not publish a median or a unique-donor count on this city aggregate.

Clovis, Visalia, and Bakersfield are other Central Valley city strings. They are not inside $46,129,402 unless the filer typed FRESNO. Fresno County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.

Office addresses can share the Fresno city field with household streets. Totals can include a PAC or joint-fundraising address when that is what filers typed. The 149,791 lines are receipts, not unique persons.

Not a Central Valley sum

Sacramento, Bakersfield, and Stockton keep separate California hubs. Adding them to Fresno would be a recode. This packet publishes FRESNO, CA only: $46,129,402 and 149,791 lines.

State CA on the key is required in the citation. Recheck both facts on the live hub if a later extract lands.

Questions

What is Fresno’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?

Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city FRESNO, CA total $46,129,402 across 149,791 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Fresno residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.

How should I read Fresno’s 149,791 contributions?

LobbyVault counts 149,791 itemized lines for FRESNO, CA. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding donors. This packet publishes no unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total is $46,129,402.

Does Fresno’s total include Clovis or Bakersfield?

Only if the filer typed FRESNO. Clovis, Visalia, and Bakersfield are separate city strings when they appear that way on the receipt. $46,129,402 is the FRESNO, CA match. The 149,791 lines follow the same rule. Metro labels are not an FEC dimension on this hub.

Where do the Fresno facts come from?

Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $46,129,402 and 149,791 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. California non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $308 is arithmetic from those two packet numbers.
