WESTON, MA
FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city WESTON, MA sum to $58,864,719 across 72,104 contributions. Weston’s line count is thinner than Brookline or Newton on this extract, which lifts the mean. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.
Key figures
- Weston’s federal itemized city book is $58,864,719 across 72,104 contributions.
- Cite state MA with the city so same-named places do not merge.
- The mean near $816 reflects a thinner line file than Brookline on this extract.
- Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.
A thinner MetroWest file than Newton or Brookline
Seventy-two thousand one hundred four lines produce $58,864,719. Divide the pair and the average itemized line is about $816. Wayland is thinner still; Brookline is thicker. Weston sits between those Massachusetts shapes.
Weston, Connecticut and Weston, Florida are other places with the same city name. This book is WESTON, MA. Newton, Wayland, Lexington, and Brookline are other Massachusetts hubs, not inside $58,864,719 unless the filer typed WESTON.
A PAC or joint-fundraising committee that listed Weston can share the city field with household streets. LobbyVault does not recode those rows. The 72,104 lines are receipts, not unique persons.
State MA is required on the citation
Dropping the state invites a same-name merge. Keep WESTON, MA as the citation: $58,864,719 and 72,104 lines.
Do not add Weston to Boston and call the sum “Greater Boston.” Recheck both facts on the live hub after a later extract.

Questions
- What does LobbyVault show for Weston, MA federal contributions?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city WESTON, MA total $58,864,719 across 72,104 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Weston residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
- Is this Weston, Connecticut or Weston, Florida?
- No. This hub is WESTON with state MA. $58,864,719 and 72,104 lines describe the Massachusetts city string only. Cite the state with the city every time so same-named places do not merge. Cite state MA with the city every time so Weston, Connecticut or Weston, Florida do not merge into $58,864,719.
- Does Weston’s total include Wayland or Newton?
- No, unless the filer typed WESTON. Wayland, Newton, Lexington, and Brookline are separate Massachusetts city hubs. $58,864,719 is the WESTON, MA match. The 72,104 lines follow the same rule. Wayland, Newton, Lexington, and Brookline are separate Massachusetts city hubs, not inside $58,864,719.
- How current is Weston’s $58,864,719 figure?
- The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $58,864,719 and 72,104 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Massachusetts non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $816 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.
