FORT LAUDERDALE, FL

FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city FORT LAUDERDALE, FL sum to $51,390,297 across 120,318 contributions. Fort Lauderdale’s dollars sit beside other South Florida city strings, but the key is the typed city, not a Broward County roll-up. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Key figures

  • Fort Lauderdale’s federal itemized city book is $51,390,297 across 120,318 contributions.
  • The mean near $427 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
  • Cite contributor city, dollars, and line count together.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Fort Lauderdale’s volume relative to its dollars

One hundred twenty thousand three hundred eighteen lines produce $51,390,297. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $427. Miami and Boca Raton keep separate Florida hubs with their own line counts. That contrast is a shape fact, not a character study of the Intracoastal.

Hollywood, Pompano Beach, and Plantation are other Broward city strings. They are not inside $51,390,297 unless the filer typed FORT LAUDERDALE. Broward County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.

Office addresses can share the Fort Lauderdale city field with household streets. Totals can include a PAC or joint-fundraising address when that is what filers typed. The 120,318 lines are receipts, not unique persons.

Not a South Florida sum

Miami, West Palm Beach, and Miami Beach keep separate Florida hubs. Adding them to Fort Lauderdale would be a recode. This packet publishes FORT LAUDERDALE, FL only: $51,390,297 and 120,318 lines.

State FL on the key is required in the citation. Recheck both facts on the live hub if a later extract lands.

Questions

What is Fort Lauderdale’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?
Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city FORT LAUDERDALE, FL total $51,390,297 across 120,318 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Fort Lauderdale residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.
How should I read Fort Lauderdale’s 120,318 contributions?
LobbyVault counts 120,318 itemized lines for FORT LAUDERDALE, FL. 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 $51,390,297.
Does Fort Lauderdale’s total include Hollywood or Miami?
Only if the filer typed FORT LAUDERDALE. Hollywood, Pompano Beach, and Miami are separate city strings when they appear that way on the receipt. $51,390,297 is the FORT LAUDERDALE, FL match. The 120,318 lines follow the same rule. Metro labels are not an FEC dimension on this hub.
Where do the Fort Lauderdale facts come from?
Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $51,390,297 and 120,318 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Florida non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $427 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.
