SARATOGA, CA
FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city SARATOGA, CA sum to $30,375,991 across 70,916 contributions. State CA on the key is part of the match: this is not Saratoga Springs, New York. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.
Key figures
- Saratoga, CA’s federal itemized city book is $30,375,991 across 70,916 contributions.
- Cite CA with the city name; this is not Saratoga Springs, NY.
- The mean near $428 follows from dividing those two facts.
- Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.
West Valley city string
Seventy thousand nine hundred sixteen lines produce $30,375,991. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $428. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts. FEC.gov does not publish a median on this city aggregate.
Los Gatos, Cupertino, and San Jose keep separate California hubs. They are not inside $30,375,991 unless the filer typed SARATOGA. Santa Clara County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.
California, not New York
Saratoga Springs, NY is a different city key. This packet publishes SARATOGA, CA only: $30,375,991 and 70,916 lines. Folding the two names would be a recode.
Recheck both facts on the live hub if a later extract lands. Cite CA with the city name every time.

Questions
- What is Saratoga, CA’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?
- Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city SARATOGA, CA total $30,375,991 across 70,916 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Saratoga residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.
- Is this Saratoga Springs, New York?
- No. The packet key is SARATOGA, CA. State CA is required in the citation. $30,375,991 and 70,916 lines are the California match only. A New York Saratoga Springs string is a different city key when filers typed it that way.
- Does Saratoga’s total include Los Gatos or Cupertino?
- Only if the filer typed SARATOGA. Los Gatos, Cupertino, and San Jose are separate city strings when they appear that way on the receipt. $30,375,991 is the SARATOGA, CA match. The 70,916 lines follow the same rule. Santa Clara County is not an FEC dimension on this hub.
- Where do the Saratoga facts come from?
- Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $30,375,991 and 70,916 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 $428 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.
