PHILA, PA

The city string is PHILA, not Philadelphia
Sixty-six thousand four hundred eighty-five lines produce $31,839,653. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $479. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts. FEC.gov does not publish a median on this city aggregate.
Filers who typed PHILADELPHIA land on a different city key. This hub is only the abbreviation. $31,839,653 does not include receipts that used the full spelling unless the filer also typed PHILA on that row.
Abbreviation as an FEC key
LobbyVault indexes the city field as stored. PHILA plus PA is a literal match. Treating it as a typo for Philadelphia and folding the two keys would be a recode. This packet publishes PHILA, PA only: $31,839,653 and 66,485 lines.
State PA on the key is required in the citation. Recheck both facts on the live hub if a later extract lands.

Questions
- What is PHILA’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?
- Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city PHILA, PA total $31,839,653 across 66,485 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows for the abbreviation as typed, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Philadelphia residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.
- Is PHILA the same as Philadelphia on FEC.gov?
- No. LobbyVault indexes the city field as stored. PHILA and PHILADELPHIA are different keys when filers typed them differently. This hub’s $31,839,653 and 66,485 lines are the PHILA, PA match only. Folding the two strings would be a recode.
- How should I read PHILA’s 66,485 contributions?
- LobbyVault counts 66,485 itemized lines for PHILA, PA. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding donors. This packet publishes no unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total is $31,839,653.
- Where do the PHILA facts come from?
- Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $31,839,653 and 66,485 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Pennsylvania non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $479 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.
