LAGUNA BEACH, CA

FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city LAGUNA BEACH, CA sum to $29,012,096 across 64,017 contributions. Laguna Beach’s pair is an Orange County coastal city string, not a merge of Laguna Niguel or Newport Beach. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Key figures

  • Laguna Beach’s federal itemized city book is $29,012,096 across 64,017 contributions.
  • Laguna Niguel is a separate city string.
  • The mean near $453 follows from dividing those two facts.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Coastal city dollars versus line count

Sixty-four thousand seventeen lines produce $29,012,096. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $453. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts. FEC.gov does not publish a median on this city aggregate.

Laguna Niguel, Newport Beach, and Dana Point keep separate California hubs. They are not inside $29,012,096 unless the filer typed LAGUNA BEACH. Orange County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.

Laguna Beach, not Laguna Niguel

Laguna Niguel is a different city string. This packet publishes LAGUNA BEACH, CA only: $29,012,096 and 64,017 lines. Folding the two Lagunas would be a recode.

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 Laguna Beach’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?
Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city LAGUNA BEACH, CA total $29,012,096 across 64,017 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Laguna Beach residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.
Does Laguna Beach’s total include Laguna Niguel?
Only if the filer typed LAGUNA BEACH. Laguna Niguel, Newport Beach, and Dana Point are separate city strings when they appear that way on the receipt. $29,012,096 is the LAGUNA BEACH, CA match. The 64,017 lines follow the same rule. South Orange County is not an FEC dimension on this hub.
How should I read Laguna Beach’s 64,017 contributions?
LobbyVault counts 64,017 itemized lines for LAGUNA BEACH, 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 $29,012,096. The mean near $453 follows from division.
Where do the Laguna Beach facts come from?
Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $29,012,096 and 64,017 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 $453 is arithmetic from those two packet numbers.

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