HOLLAND, MI

34,022 lines carrying $15,576,785

The headline pair is $15,576,785 and 34,022 lines. The implied average is about $458. Cite both numbers. Quoting only the dollars drops the line-count shape of the HOLLAND book. Ottawa County filers typed HOLLAND with state MI.

HOLLAND, MI is an Ottawa County lakeshore string, not Holland, Ohio. State MI is required in the citation. Grand Rapids is a different Kent County key. Zeeland is a neighboring string. 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 $15,576,785 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of Holland gave. The 34,022 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints Holland together with Zeeland, Grand Rapids, and Holland, Ohio, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $15,576,785 on 34,022 HOLLAND, MI rows, mean near $458. Keep the stored spelling HOLLAND in the citation.

Why HOLLAND on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Holland give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city HOLLAND, MI total $15,576,785 across 34,022 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. This extract is HOLLAND with state MI only. Holland, OH is another FEC city key. Grand Rapids is a different Michigan string.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $15,576,785. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $458 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city HOLLAND, MI?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city HOLLAND, MI total $15,576,785 across 34,022 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 Holland. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $458 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

Which Holland is this $15.6M total?

This extract is HOLLAND with state MI only. Holland, OH is another FEC city key. Grand Rapids is a different Michigan string. LobbyVault counts 34,022 itemized contributions for HOLLAND, MI against $15,576,785. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 34,022 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does the Holland total include only residents?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed HOLLAND with state MI. Office addresses and mail that list Holland can be part of $15,576,785 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 34,022-line count follows the same rule.

Are Holland numbers from FEC.gov?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $15,576,785 and 34,022 lines for HOLLAND, MI. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from MI are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
