Wilmington, NC

FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city Wilmington, NC sum to $28,537,809 across 58,328 contributions. State NC on the key is part of the match: this is not Wilmington, Delaware. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Key figures

  • Wilmington, NC’s federal itemized city book is $28,537,809 across 58,328 contributions.
  • Cite NC with the city name; this is not Wilmington, DE.
  • The mean near $489 follows from dividing those two facts.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Cape Fear city string on the federal books

Fifty-eight thousand three hundred twenty-eight lines produce $28,537,809. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $489. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts. FEC.gov does not publish a median on this city aggregate.

Raleigh, Charlotte, and Durham keep separate North Carolina hubs. They are not inside $28,537,809 unless the filer typed Wilmington. New Hanover County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.

North Carolina, not Delaware

Wilmington, DE is a different city key. This packet publishes Wilmington, NC only: $28,537,809 and 58,328 lines. Folding the two states would be a recode.

Recheck both facts on the live hub if a later extract lands. Cite NC with the city name every time. The packet stores the city as Wilmington, mixed case, matching the FEC string as indexed.

Questions

What is Wilmington, NC’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?
Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city Wilmington, NC total $28,537,809 across 58,328 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Wilmington residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.
Is this Wilmington, Delaware?
No. The packet key is Wilmington, NC. State NC is required in the citation. $28,537,809 and 58,328 lines are the North Carolina match only. A Delaware Wilmington string is a different city key when filers typed it that way.
Does Wilmington’s total include Wrightsville Beach?
Only if the filer typed Wilmington. Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, and Charlotte are separate city strings when they appear that way on the receipt. $28,537,809 is the Wilmington, NC match. The 58,328 lines follow the same rule. New Hanover County is not an FEC dimension on this hub.
Where do the Wilmington facts come from?
Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $28,537,809 and 58,328 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. North Carolina non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $489 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.
