DALLAS, TX

Dallas, TX is the contributor city on $741,760,012 in federal receipts across 1,093,395 FEC itemizations. LobbyVault groups those lines from FEC.gov by the city and state on each record. Downtown towers, national committee mail rooms, and household streets can share that city string. The total is tagged activity, not a headcount of Dallas residents who donated. Those two FEC.gov factsβ€”$741,760,012 and 1,093,395 itemizationsβ€”are the entire numeric claim this Dallas guide makes.

Key figures

  • Dallas, TX contributor-city receipts total $741,760,012.
  • Those dollars sit on 1,093,395 FEC itemizations.
  • Other Texas city strings are not merged into this hub.
  • PAC and joint-fundraising addresses can appear in the city field.
  • ZIP pages split the same federal filings by postal code.

What the Dallas city field actually sums

The $741,760,012 figure is the sum of federal contribution itemizations stored as Dallas, TX. One million ninety-three thousand three hundred ninety-five lines feed that total. LobbyVault does not drop headquarters-looking addresses. If the committee typed Dallas, the receipt stays in this hub. That mechanical rule is what makes the table checkable against the public file.

Houston, Austin, and San Antonio are separate city strings. They are not inside the Dallas number. Totals can include PAC and joint-fundraising addresses, not only residents. Quoting $741,760,012 as what Dallasites gave describes the city field, not a residency test. The 1,093,395 lines are disclosed receipts, not unique persons.

Nothing on this page estimates how Dallas voted, which candidates the receipts supported, or whether a listed street is a home. Occupation and recipient committee live on other FEC fields. The supported path is the Dallas city table, then ZIP pages, then the cities index. The two facts to carry are $741,760,012 and 1,093,395 itemizations.

More than a million itemizations

A count of 1,093,395 lines means the Dallas aggregate is a thick file. Many records will be ordinary individual contributions. Others will be committee receipts that list a Dallas address. The FEC city column does not mark which is which. This page keeps both so the dollar total and the line count stay faithful to what committees filed.

Free-text city names split North Texas. A suburb that residents treat as part of Dallas may be stored under its own municipal name. This hub holds only the 1,093,395 records labeled DALLAS. A combined metro research question requires adding those other hubs by design. This guide does not invent that merge.

Texas state filings are not inside $741,760,012. This hub is federal itemizations labeled Dallas, TX: 1,093,395 records. A North Texas briefing that blends Plano or Fort Worth is a different object unless those city strings are added on purpose. Keep this page’s two facts unchanged when you cite it.
