NEW CANAAN, CT

FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city NEW CANAAN, CT sum to $39,802,627 across 61,577 contributions. New Canaan’s line count is close to Darien’s on similar dollars, which is a coincidence of two separate city keys, not a combined Fairfield total. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Key figures

  • New Canaan’s federal itemized city book is $39,802,627 across 61,577 contributions.
  • Darien is a separate city key, not a component of $39,802,627.
  • Cite contributor city, dollars, and line count together.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

New Canaan beside Darien, not inside it

Sixty-one thousand five hundred seventy-seven lines produce $39,802,627. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $646. Darien is a neighboring Connecticut city string with its own hub. New Canaan’s $39,802,627 does not include Darien unless the filer typed NEW CANAAN.

Westport and Greenwich are other Fairfield labels. They stay off this page. Fairfield County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.

The city key is the whole name

NEW CANAAN plus CT is the stored string. Shortening it to Canaan, or folding it into Stamford, would be a recode. This packet publishes $39,802,627 and 61,577 lines for NEW CANAAN, CT only.

Committee streets can share the city field. A PAC or joint-fundraising address is in the total if the filer typed NEW CANAAN. The 61,577 lines are receipts, not unique persons. Recheck both facts on the live hub after a later extract.

Questions

What is New Canaan’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?
Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city NEW CANAAN, CT total $39,802,627 across 61,577 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of New Canaan residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.
How should I read New Canaan’s 61,577 contributions?
LobbyVault counts 61,577 itemized lines for NEW CANAAN, CT. 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 $39,802,627.
Does New Canaan’s total include Darien or Greenwich?
Only if the filer typed NEW CANAAN. Darien, Westport, and Greenwich are separate city strings when they appear that way on the receipt. $39,802,627 is the NEW CANAAN, CT match. The 61,577 lines follow the same rule. County labels are not an FEC dimension on this hub.
Where do the New Canaan facts come from?
Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $39,802,627 and 61,577 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Connecticut non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls.

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