LAFAYETTE, LA
FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city LAFAYETTE, LA sum to $29,928,872 across 66,299 contributions. State LA on the key is part of the match: this is not Lafayette, California. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.
Key figures
- Lafayette, LA’s federal itemized city book is $29,928,872 across 66,299 contributions.
- Cite LA with the city name; this is not Lafayette, CA.
- The mean near $451 follows from dividing those two facts.
- Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.
Acadiana city string on the federal books
Sixty-six thousand two hundred ninety-nine lines produce $29,928,872. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $451. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a ranking of Acadiana giving. FEC.gov does not publish a median on this city aggregate.
Baton Rouge, New Iberia, and Lake Charles keep separate Louisiana hubs. They are not inside $29,928,872 unless the filer typed LAFAYETTE. Lafayette Parish is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.
Louisiana, not California
Lafayette, CA is a different city key. This packet publishes LAFAYETTE, LA only: $29,928,872 and 66,299 lines. Folding the two states would be a recode.
Recheck both facts on the live hub if a later extract lands. Cite LA with the city name every time.

Questions
- What is Lafayette, LA’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?
- Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city LAFAYETTE, LA total $29,928,872 across 66,299 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Lafayette residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.
- Is this Lafayette, California?
- No. The packet key is LAFAYETTE, LA. State LA is required in the citation. $29,928,872 and 66,299 lines are the Louisiana match only. A California Lafayette string is a different city key when filers typed it that way.
- Does Lafayette’s total include Baton Rouge or Lake Charles?
- Only if the filer typed LAFAYETTE. Baton Rouge, New Iberia, and Lake Charles are separate city strings when they appear that way on the receipt. $29,928,872 is the LAFAYETTE, LA match. The 66,299 lines follow the same rule. Lafayette Parish is not an FEC dimension on this hub.
- Where do the Lafayette facts come from?
- Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $29,928,872 and 66,299 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Louisiana non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $451 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.
