SANTA ROSA, CA

FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city SANTA ROSA, CA sum to $26,200,333 across 147,910 contributions. Santa Rosa’s 147,910-line count is a high-volume Sonoma County city field; the mean near $177 is arithmetic from those two packet facts. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census and not a party score. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Key figures

  • SANTA ROSA, CA FEC itemizations total $26,200,333 across 147,910 contributions.
  • The mean line is about $177; 147,910 is a line count, not unique donors.
  • City is the contributor-city field on FEC itemizations.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

147,910 lines behind $26,200,333

Santa Rosa shows 147,910 itemizations behind $26,200,333. That mix is a high-volume, smaller-average file. Many of the lines will be modest individual receipts that happen to share the Santa Rosa city field. Committee receipts that list a Santa Rosa address still sit in the same column. LobbyVault does not strip one type before adding the dollars.

Petaluma, Rohnert Park, and Sebastopol are stored as their own city strings. They are not folded into this total. Totals can include PAC and joint-fundraising addresses, not only residents. Read $26,200,333 as tagged federal receipts, not as what Santa Rosa residents gave. The 147,910 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

Nothing on this page estimates how Santa Rosa voted, which candidates the receipts supported, or whether a listed street is a home. Occupation and recipient committee live on other FEC fields. The supported path is the Santa Rosa city table, then ZIP pages, then the cities index.

How FEC city and state keep Santa Rosa, CA distinct

Committees type the city as it appears on the contributor record and the state as CA. A workplace in Santa Rosa and a home in Petaluma can produce different city strings on different receipts. This hub holds only the 147,910 lines labeled SANTA ROSA with state CA. That split is disclosure mechanics, not a statement about Sonoma County’s civic identity.

This packet is Santa Rosa, California, not Santa Rosa, New Mexico. State CA stays on the citation. Keeping both facts in view—$26,200,333 and 147,910 contributions—shows a thick file. A combined Sonoma County picture requires adding other hubs by design.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to Santa Rosa, CA?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city SANTA ROSA, CA total $26,200,333 across 147,910 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 Santa Rosa. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
Why is Santa Rosa’s contribution count high relative to the dollars?
LobbyVault counts 147,910 itemized contributions for SANTA ROSA, CA against $26,200,333, a mean near $177. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. A high line count with a modest mean is a volume book, not a turnout score.
Does the Santa Rosa total include only residents?
No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed SANTA ROSA with state CA. Office addresses and mail that list Santa Rosa can be part of $26,200,333 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 147,910-line count follows the same rule.
Is this Santa Rosa, California or another Santa Rosa?
This extract is SANTA ROSA with state CA: $26,200,333 and 147,910 lines. It is not Santa Rosa, New Mexico. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal California filings sit outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.

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