CANTON, OH

FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city CANTON, OH sum to $19.6M across 33,935 contributions. Canton is a Stark County mid-volume book in Stark County in northeast Ohio: 33,935 lines against $19.6M produces a mean near $577 from those two packet facts. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census and not a party score. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Key figures

  • $19,591,702 and 33,935 lines are the CANTON, OH packet facts.
  • Mean near $577 is arithmetic, not a median resident.
  • Canton is not Akron on the FEC city key.
  • If the live hub disagrees, the newer FEC extract controls.

33,935 lines carrying $19,591,702

The headline pair is $19,591,702 and 33,935 lines. The implied average is about $577. Cite both numbers. Quoting only the dollars drops the line-count shape of the CANTON book. Stark County filers typed CANTON with state OH.

CANTON, OH is a Stark County city field, not Canton, Michigan or Canton, Georgia. State OH must stay on the citation. North Canton, if filers typed that name, is a different string. Akron is a neighboring key. 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 $19,591,702 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of CANTON gave. The 33,935 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints CANTON together with Akron, Massillon, and North Canton, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $19,591,702 on 33,935 CANTON, OH rows, mean near $577. Keep the stored spelling CANTON in the citation.

Why CANTON on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Canton give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city CANTON, OH total $19,591,702 across 33,935 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. This extract is CANTON with state OH only. Canton, MI and Canton, GA are other FEC city keys. North Canton is a different string when typed.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $19,591,702. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $577 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city CANTON, OH?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city CANTON, OH total $19,591,702 across 33,935 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 Canton. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $577 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
Which Canton is this $19.6M total?
This extract is CANTON with state OH only. Canton, MI and Canton, GA are other FEC city keys. North Canton is a different string when typed. LobbyVault counts 33,935 itemized contributions for CANTON, OH against $19,591,702. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 33,935 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.
Does the Canton total include only residents?
No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed CANTON with state OH. Office addresses and mail that list Canton can be part of $19,591,702 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 33,935-line count follows the same rule.
Are Canton numbers from FEC.gov?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $19,591,702 and 33,935 lines for CANTON, OH. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from OH are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.

City is the contributor city on FEC itemizations. Totals can include PAC and joint-fundraising addresses, not only residents.
