GOLDEN, CO
FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city GOLDEN, CO sum to $24,169,646 across 52,107 contributions. Golden is a Jefferson County city string west of Denver, with a mean near $464 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
- $24,169,646 and 52,107 lines are the GOLDEN, CO packet facts.
- Mean near $464 is arithmetic, not a median resident.
- Golden is not Denver on the FEC city key.
- If the live hub disagrees, the newer FEC extract controls.
Reading $24,169,646 as a city-string roll-up
The headline pair is $24,169,646 and 52,107 lines. The implied average is about $464. Cite both numbers. Quoting only the dollars drops the line-count shape of the Golden book.
Jefferson County’s Golden string is separate from Denver, Lakewood, and Boulder on the FEC city key. Filers typed GOLDEN in the city field. LobbyVault summed rows with that string and state CO. The city total can include a PAC or joint-fundraising committee address when that is the city filers typed. LobbyVault does not recode those rows out of the city string.
If a newsroom map paints Golden together with Denver and Lakewood, the FEC file still splits them. Boulder too. This extract’s only city total is $24,169,646 on 52,107 GOLDEN, CO rows, mean near $464.
Why GOLDEN on the receipt is not a census of Golden
Searchers often want “how much did people in Golden give.” The honest citation is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city GOLDEN, CO total $24,169,646 across 52,107 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim.
Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $24,169,646. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. Campus or brewery geography orients readers; this packet has no employer split.

Questions
- How much is itemized from contributor city Golden, CO?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city GOLDEN, CO total $24,169,646 across 52,107 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 Golden. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
- Is Golden folded into Denver’s FEC city total?
- No. LobbyVault counts 52,107 itemized contributions for GOLDEN, CO against $24,169,646. Denver is a different city string. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 52,107 should not be quoted as a population.
- Does the Golden total include only residents?
- No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed GOLDEN with state CO. Office addresses and mail that list Golden can be part of $24,169,646 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 52,107-line count follows the same rule.
- Are Golden numbers from FEC.gov?
- The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $24,169,646 and 52,107 lines for GOLDEN, CO. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from CO are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $464 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
City is the contributor city on FEC itemizations. Totals can include PAC and joint-fundraising addresses, not only residents.
