MINNETONKA, MN

48,334 lines carrying $16,934,276

The headline pair is $16,934,276 and 48,334 lines. The implied average is about $350. Cite both numbers. Quoting only the dollars drops the line-count shape of the MINNETONKA book. Hennepin County filers typed MINNETONKA with state MN.

Minnetonka is a western Hennepin suburb stored as MINNETONKA, MN. Minneapolis rows that list MINNEAPOLIS sit on another hub. Edina and Plymouth are neighboring strings. Minnetonka Beach, if typed, is a different city field. 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 $16,934,276 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of Minnetonka gave. The 48,334 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints Minnetonka together with Edina, Plymouth, and Minneapolis, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $16,934,276 on 48,334 MINNETONKA, MN rows, mean near $350. Keep the stored spelling MINNETONKA in the citation.

Why MINNETONKA on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Minnetonka give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city MINNETONKA, MN total $16,934,276 across 48,334 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. MINNETONKA, MN is the stored western Hennepin string. Minneapolis is a different city key.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $16,934,276. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $350 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city MINNETONKA, MN?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city MINNETONKA, MN total $16,934,276 across 48,334 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 Minnetonka. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $350 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

Is Minnetonka counted inside Minneapolis on this extract?

No. MINNETONKA, MN is the stored western Hennepin string. Minneapolis is a different city key. LobbyVault counts 48,334 itemized contributions for MINNETONKA, MN against $16,934,276. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 48,334 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does the Minnetonka total include only residents?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed MINNETONKA with state MN. Office addresses and mail that list Minnetonka can be part of $16,934,276 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 48,334-line count follows the same rule.

Are Minnetonka numbers from FEC.gov?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $16,934,276 and 48,334 lines for MINNETONKA, MN. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from MN are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
