COLUMBUS, GA
FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city COLUMBUS, GA sum to $22,988,570 across 46,498 contributions. Columbus, Georgia, is a Muscogee County city string with a mean near $494 from those two packet facts—not Columbus, Ohio. 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
- $22,988,570 and 46,498 lines are the COLUMBUS, GA packet facts.
- Mean near $494 is arithmetic, not a median resident.
- State GA keeps this page off Columbus, OH.
- If the live hub disagrees, the newer FEC extract controls.
State GA keeps Columbus off Ohio
The headline pair is $22,988,570 and 46,498 lines. The implied average is about $494. Cite both numbers. Quoting only the dollars drops the line-count shape of the Columbus, GA book.
Muscogee County’s Columbus string is separate from Phenix City, AL, and Atlanta on the FEC city key. Filers typed COLUMBUS in the city field. LobbyVault summed rows with that string and state GA. 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 Columbus, GA, together with Phenix City across the river, the FEC file still splits them by city and state. This extract’s only city total is $22,988,570 on 46,498 COLUMBUS, GA rows, mean near $494.
Why COLUMBUS, GA on the receipt is not a census
Searchers often want “how much did people in Columbus give.” The honest citation is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city COLUMBUS, GA total $22,988,570 across 46,498 contributions. Dropping “itemized,” “contributor city,” and state GA inflates or misplaces the claim.
Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $22,988,570. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. State GA is what keeps this page off Columbus, OH.

Questions
- How much is itemized from contributor city Columbus, GA?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city COLUMBUS, GA total $22,988,570 across 46,498 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 Columbus, Ohio. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
- Is this Columbus, Georgia or Columbus, Ohio?
- This extract is COLUMBUS with state GA: 46,498 lines and $22,988,570. Columbus, OH, would be a different city key. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 46,498 should not be quoted as a population.
- Does the Columbus, GA total include only residents?
- No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed COLUMBUS with state GA. Office addresses and mail that list Columbus can be part of $22,988,570 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 46,498-line count follows the same rule.
- Are Columbus, GA numbers from FEC.gov?
- The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $22,988,570 and 46,498 lines for COLUMBUS, GA. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from GA are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $494 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.
