What is the FEC donation total for MIDLAND, TX?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city MIDLAND, TX total $82,334,215 across 108,952 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 Midland. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.

Is 108,952 a count of Midland donors?

LobbyVault counts 108,952 itemized contributions for MIDLAND, TX. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 108,952 should not be quoted as a population. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $82,334,215.

Is MIDLAND, TX a residency total?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed MIDLAND with state TX. Office addresses and mail that list Midland can be part of $82,334,215 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 108,952-line count follows the same rule.

What is the source for MIDLAND, TX campaign money figures?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $82,334,215 and 108,952 lines for MIDLAND, 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. The mean of about $756 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
