MANHATTAN BEACH, CA

FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city MANHATTAN BEACH, CA sum to $31,120,071 across 61,359 contributions. Manhattan Beach’s pair is a South Bay city string with a mean near five hundred, not a merge of Hermosa Beach or Redondo Beach. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Key figures

  • Manhattan Beach’s federal itemized city book is $31,120,071 across 61,359 contributions.
  • The mean near $507 follows from dividing those two facts.
  • Cite contributor city, dollars, and line count together.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Beach-city dollars versus line count

Sixty-one thousand three hundred fifty-nine lines produce $31,120,071. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $507. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts. It is not a typical household gift. FEC.gov does not publish a median on this city aggregate.

Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, and El Segundo keep separate California hubs. They are not inside $31,120,071 unless the filer typed MANHATTAN BEACH. Los Angeles County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.

One Beach Cities string, not the strand

Beach Cities is a regional label. FEC.gov stores a city field. This packet publishes MANHATTAN BEACH, CA only: $31,120,071 and 61,359 lines. Adding Hermosa Beach 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 Manhattan Beach’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?
Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city MANHATTAN BEACH, CA total $31,120,071 across 61,359 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Manhattan Beach residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.
Why is Manhattan Beach’s mean near $507?
Divide $31,120,071 by 61,359 and the arithmetic mean is about $507. The line count is smaller relative to the dollar book than on some high-volume California hubs. That is a shape fact, not a typical gift. This packet publishes no unique-donor figure.
Does Manhattan Beach’s total include Hermosa Beach?
Only if the filer typed MANHATTAN BEACH. Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, and El Segundo are separate city strings when they appear that way on the receipt. $31,120,071 is the MANHATTAN BEACH, CA match. The 61,359 lines follow the same rule.
Where do the Manhattan Beach facts come from?
Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $31,120,071 and 61,359 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 $507 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.
