ARLINGTON, TX

116,851 lines behind ARLINGTON's $20.0M

ARLINGTON shows 116,851 itemizations behind $19,982,828. That is a receipt count, not a unique-person census. A file this long at $20.0M is a high-volume city field: many itemized rows, not a handful of oversized transfers. Volume does not prove small-dollar giving. The implied mean is about $171.

ARLINGTON, TX is a Tarrant County DFW string, not Arlington, Virginia. State TX must stay on the citation. This is a high-volume book: 116,851 lines against $20.0 million, a mean near $171. Fort Worth and Dallas are other keys. 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 $19,982,828 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of ARLINGTON gave. The 116,851 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints ARLINGTON together with Fort Worth, Grand Prairie, and Dallas, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $19,982,828 on 116,851 ARLINGTON, TX rows, mean near $171. Keep the stored spelling ARLINGTON in the citation.

Why ARLINGTON on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Arlington give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city ARLINGTON, TX total $19,982,828 across 116,851 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. No. This extract is ARLINGTON with state TX. Arlington, VA is a different FEC city-and-state key. The 116,851-line count is receipts, not unique persons.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $19,982,828. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $171 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city ARLINGTON, TX?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city ARLINGTON, TX total $19,982,828 across 116,851 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 Arlington. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $171 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

Is this Arlington, Virginia?

No. This extract is ARLINGTON with state TX. Arlington, VA is a different FEC city-and-state key. The 116,851-line count is receipts, not unique persons. LobbyVault counts 116,851 itemized contributions for ARLINGTON, TX against $19,982,828. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 116,851 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does the Arlington total include only residents?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed ARLINGTON with state TX. Office addresses and mail that list Arlington can be part of $19,982,828 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 116,851-line count follows the same rule.

Are Arlington numbers from FEC.gov?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $19,982,828 and 116,851 lines for ARLINGTON, TX. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from TX are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
