CEDAR RAPIDS, IA
FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city CEDAR RAPIDS, IA sum to $16.7M across 63,661 contributions. Cedar Rapids is an eastern-Iowa Linn County string.

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
- $16,690,185 and 63,661 lines are the CEDAR RAPIDS, IA packet facts.
- Mean near $262 is arithmetic, not a median resident.
- Cedar Rapids is not Des Moines on the FEC city key.
- If the live hub disagrees, the newer FEC extract controls.
63,661 lines behind CEDAR RAPIDS's $16.7M
CEDAR RAPIDS shows 63,661 itemizations behind $16,690,185. That is a receipt count, not a unique-person census. A file this long at $16.7M is a high-volume city field: many itemized rows, not a handful of oversized transfers. The implied mean is about $262.
Cedar Rapids is an eastern-Iowa Linn County string. Des Moines is a different Polk County key. Marion and Iowa City are neighboring strings. Cedar Rapids is not a statewide Iowa roll-up. 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. Read $16,690,185 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of Cedar Rapids gave. The 63,661 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.
If a newsroom map paints Cedar Rapids together with Marion, Iowa City, and Des Moines, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $16,690,185 on 63,661 CEDAR RAPIDS, IA rows, mean near $262. Keep the stored spelling CEDAR RAPIDS in the citation.
Why CEDAR RAPIDS on the receipt is not a census
Searchers often want “how much did people in Cedar Rapids give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city CEDAR RAPIDS, IA total $16,690,185 across 63,661 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. CEDAR RAPIDS, IA is the stored Linn County city field. Des Moines and Iowa City are other keys.
Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $16,690,185. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $262 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Questions
- How much is itemized from contributor city CEDAR RAPIDS, IA?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city CEDAR RAPIDS, IA total $16,690,185 across 63,661 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 Cedar Rapids. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $262 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
- Is Cedar Rapids the Iowa statewide total?
- No. CEDAR RAPIDS, IA is the stored Linn County city field. Des Moines and Iowa City are other keys. LobbyVault counts 63,661 itemized contributions for CEDAR RAPIDS, IA against $16,690,185. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 63,661 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.
- Does the Cedar Rapids total include only residents?
- No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed CEDAR RAPIDS with state IA. Office addresses and mail that list Cedar Rapids can be part of $16,690,185 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 63,661-line count follows the same rule.
- Are Cedar Rapids numbers from FEC.gov?
- The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $16,690,185 and 63,661 lines for CEDAR RAPIDS, IA. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from IA are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
City is the contributor city on FEC itemizations. Totals can include PAC and joint-fundraising addresses, not only residents.
