BELLEVUE, WA

FEC.gov itemizations listing contributor city BELLEVUE, WA sum to $96,131,734 across 245,666 contributions. Bellevue, Washington’s city field is east-side geography for readers; FEC.gov stored a string. The table is a contributor-city aggregate, not a unique-donor census and not a party score. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Key figures

  • $96,131,734 and 245,666 lines are the BELLEVUE, WA packet facts.
  • Mean near $391 is arithmetic, not a median resident.
  • The all-cities and ZIP directories are the next tables on the same series.
  • If the live hub disagrees, the newer FEC extract controls.

$96,131,734 is a Schedule A city total

FEC.gov indexed 245,666 itemized rows to contributor city BELLEVUE, WA. Their sum is $96,131,734. The mean near $391 describes the average row, not a household and not a census tract.

King County’s Bellevue string is east of Seattle as geography. Seattle is a different FEC city key. The 245,666-line count is a contribution-line total. It is not a headcount of Bellevue residents. 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.

If a newsroom map paints Bellevue together with Seattle and Kirkland, the FEC file still splits them. Redmond too. This extract’s only city total is $96,131,734 on 245,666 BELLEVUE, WA rows, mean near $391.

How to read the WA city key for Bellevue

City-name spelling is part of the key. BELLEVUE with state WA is the unit. A close spelling, a neighborhood abbreviation, or a merged metro label is a different aggregate if FEC stored it differently.

Independent expenditures that mention a Bellevue race can be paid by a committee with a different city on its own reports. Those disbursements do not move $96,131,734. Keep independent-expenditure tables separate from this city total.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city Bellevue?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city BELLEVUE, WA total $96,131,734 across 245,666 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 Bellevue. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
What does the Bellevue contribution count mean?
LobbyVault counts 245,666 itemized contributions for BELLEVUE, WA. 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 245,666 should not be quoted as a population. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $96,131,734.
Can committee addresses appear in the Bellevue city total?
No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed BELLEVUE with state WA. Office addresses and mail that list Bellevue can be part of $96,131,734 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 245,666-line count follows the same rule.
Are Bellevue numbers from FEC.gov?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $96,131,734 and 245,666 lines for BELLEVUE, WA. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from WA are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $391 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

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