AMHERST, NH

Amherst, NH: the itemized dollar total

Divide $105,621,053 by 14,464 and the average itemized line is about $7,302. Averages hide mixed line sizes. This packet has no distribution, so $7,302 is a mean, not a typical resident gift.

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. Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, orients Amherst. A small place name can still carry a large itemized book.

Annexation stories about Nashua, Merrimack, or Milford do not rewrite $105,621,053. FEC city strings do not auto-follow city-limit changes. 14,464 contributions tagged AMHERST, NH stay on this page until a filer types a different city. About $7,302 per line is still division.

Amherst’s high average line

Amherst is a concentration book on this extract: $105,621,053 on 14,464 lines produces a mean near $7,302. Fewer rows carry more dollars per row than a high-volume city book. That describes the average line, not a typical household.

A later extract can move Amherst across that description if large lines are refunded or if many small lines are added. Recheck $105,621,053 and 14,464 on the hub.

Questions

What is the FEC donation total for AMHERST, NH?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city AMHERST, NH total $105,621,053 across 14,464 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 Amherst. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.

Is 14,464 a count of Amherst donors?

LobbyVault counts 14,464 itemized contributions for AMHERST, NH. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 14,464 should not be quoted as a population. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $105,621,053.

Is AMHERST, NH a residency total?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed AMHERST with state NH. Office addresses and mail that list Amherst can be part of $105,621,053 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 14,464-line count follows the same rule.

What is the source for AMHERST, NH campaign money figures?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $105,621,053 and 14,464 lines for AMHERST, NH. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from NH are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $7,302 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
