DAYTON, OH

FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city DAYTON, OH sum to $35,725,641 across 104,914 contributions. Dayton’s line count is thicker than Toledo’s on this extract, even though Dayton’s dollar total is smaller, which pulls Dayton’s mean toward three hundred forty. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Key figures

  • Dayton’s federal itemized city book is $35,725,641 across 104,914 contributions.
  • Dayton’s line count is thicker than Toledo’s on this extract.
  • Cite contributor city, dollars, and line count together.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Dayton’s volume versus Toledo’s dollars

One hundred four thousand nine hundred fourteen lines produce $35,725,641. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $341. Toledo, Ohio, is $40,980,294 across 64,392 lines. Dayton has more receipts and fewer dollars. Those are two separate Ohio city keys. Do not add them.

Kettering, Beavercreek, and Fairborn are other nearby city strings. They are not inside $35,725,641 unless the filer typed DAYTON. Montgomery County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.

Not Cincinnati and not an installation census

Cincinnati keeps a separate Ohio hub. FEC.gov stored a city string, not an employer. Recoding Dayton into a federal-installation map would be a different product. This packet publishes DAYTON, OH: $35,725,641 and 104,914 lines.

Office addresses can share the city field. Totals can include a PAC or joint-fundraising address when that is what filers typed. The 104,914 lines are receipts, not unique persons. Recheck both facts on the live hub after a later extract.

Questions

What does LobbyVault show for Dayton federal contributions?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city DAYTON, OH total $35,725,641 across 104,914 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Dayton residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
Is 104,914 the number of Dayton donors?
No. LobbyVault counts 104,914 itemized contribution lines for DAYTON, OH. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding people. This packet publishes no unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total is $35,725,641.
Does Dayton’s total include Toledo or Cincinnati?
No, unless the filer typed DAYTON. Toledo and Cincinnati are separate Ohio city hubs. $35,725,641 is the DAYTON, OH match. The 104,914 lines follow the same rule. County labels are not an FEC dimension on this hub.
How current is Dayton’s $35,725,641 figure?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $35,725,641 and 104,914 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Ohio non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls.

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