RHINEBECK, NY

12,016 lines carrying $20,109,842

RHINEBECK shows 12,016 itemizations behind $20,109,842. That mix is a thinner stack with a high average line relative to volume books that post similar dollars on 70,000-plus rows. The implied mean is about $1,674. Committee receipts that list a RHINEBECK address still sit in the same column as individual rows.

Rhinebeck is a short Hudson Valley file: 12,016 lines against $20.1 million, a mean near $1,674. That mix is a high average line. Poughkeepsie and Kingston are neighboring strings, not subsets. 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 $20,109,842 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of RHINEBECK gave. The 12,016 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints RHINEBECK together with Red Hook, Kingston, and Poughkeepsie, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $20,109,842 on 12,016 RHINEBECK, NY rows, mean near $1,674. Keep the stored spelling RHINEBECK in the citation.

Why RHINEBECK on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Rhinebeck give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city RHINEBECK, NY total $20,109,842 across 12,016 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. Twelve thousand sixteen lines against $20,109,842 produce that mean. A file this short at this dollar scale can be dominated by large receipts.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $20,109,842. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $1,674 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city RHINEBECK, NY?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city RHINEBECK, NY total $20,109,842 across 12,016 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 Rhinebeck. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $1,674 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

Why is Rhinebeck’s average line near $1,674?

Twelve thousand sixteen lines against $20,109,842 produce that mean. A file this short at this dollar scale can be dominated by large receipts. LobbyVault counts 12,016 itemized contributions for RHINEBECK, NY against $20,109,842. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 12,016 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does the Rhinebeck total include only residents?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed RHINEBECK with state NY. Office addresses and mail that list Rhinebeck can be part of $20,109,842 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 12,016-line count follows the same rule.

Are Rhinebeck numbers from FEC.gov?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $20,109,842 and 12,016 lines for RHINEBECK, NY. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from NY are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
