MIAMI BEACH, FL

FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city MIAMI BEACH, FL sum to $47,443,876 across 70,120 contributions. Miami Beach’s book is fewer lines than Miami on a separate hub, which lifts the mean. 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

  • Miami Beach’s federal itemized city book is $47,443,876 across 70,120 contributions.
  • The mean near $677 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
  • Cite MIAMI BEACH, not Miami, so the key stays intact.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

$47,443,876 is a Schedule A city total

FEC.gov indexed 70,120 itemized rows to contributor city MIAMI BEACH, FL. Their sum is $47,443,876. The mean near $677 describes the average row, not a household and not a census tract.

Miami-Dade’s barrier-island city sits on this string as a filing city, not as a score of tourism-board races. The 70,120-line count is a contribution-line total. It is not a headcount of Miami Beach residents. 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.

Miami Beach versus Miami is a different-key problem, not a bay ranking. Surfside and Bal Harbour follow the same rule. Quote $47,443,876 and 70,120 for MIAMI BEACH, FL only. The mean near $677 does not travel with a neighbor’s name.

How to read the FL city key for Miami Beach

City-name spelling is part of the key. MIAMI BEACH with state FL is the unit. A close spelling such as Miami or Miami Shores is a different aggregate if FEC stored it differently.

Independent expenditures that mention a Miami Beach race can be paid by a committee with a different city on its own reports. Those disbursements do not move $47,443,876. Keep independent-expenditure tables separate from this city total.

Questions

What is Miami Beach’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?
Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city MIAMI BEACH, FL total $47,443,876 across 70,120 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Miami Beach residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.
How should I read Miami Beach’s 70,120 contributions?
LobbyVault counts 70,120 itemized lines for MIAMI BEACH, 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 $47,443,876.
Does Miami Beach’s total include Miami?
Only if the filer typed MIAMI BEACH. Miami, Surfside, and Bal Harbour are separate city strings when they appear that way on the receipt. $47,443,876 is the MIAMI BEACH, FL match. The 70,120 lines follow the same rule. Metro labels are not an FEC dimension on this hub.
Where do the Miami Beach facts come from?
Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $47,443,876 and 70,120 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 $677 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.
