PASADENA, CA: $69.2M on 219,069 FEC receipts

Pasadena’s volume on $69,184,320

Two hundred nineteen thousand sixty-nine lines produce $69,184,320. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $316. That mean is arithmetic. This packet has no median.

Los Angeles, San Marino, Altadena, and South Pasadena are other city strings. They are not inside $69,184,320 unless the filer typed PASADENA. Los Angeles County is orientation, not an FEC dimension.

Office addresses can share the Pasadena city field with household streets. Totals can include a PAC or joint-fundraising address when that is what filers typed. The 219,069 lines are receipts, not unique persons.

Pasadena, California is not Pasadena, Texas

State CA on the city key is required in the citation. Other states have places named Pasadena. This book is PASADENA, CA only: $69,184,320 and 219,069 lines.

Do not add Pasadena to Los Angeles and call the sum “L.A. County.” FEC.gov stored city. Recheck both facts on the live hub after a later extract.

City string versus ZIP pages

Filers type a city. The Commission stores that string. Recoding Pasadena into a Census place would be a different product.

ZIP pages cut the same federal series by postal code. Summing San Gabriel Valley ZIPs will not reproduce $69,184,320. The 219,069-line count follows the city field.

What the Pasadena table omits

California state campaigns file under state law. Those receipts are outside $69,184,320 and outside 219,069. Unitemized federal gifts are omitted. Independent expenditures that never appear as contribution itemizations are outside both facts.

Nothing here estimates how Pasadena voted. Occupation and recipient live on other FEC fields. Use the city table, then ZIP pages, then the cities index.

A Pasadena citation that names FEC.gov and prints $69,184,320 without 219,069 hides a volume book, mean near $316. Los Angeles County maps do not replace the city field. State CA on the key keeps Pasadena, Texas out of this total.

If a later extract moves Pasadena’s pair, the live hub is the authority. This guide is a snapshot. Open original reports on FEC.gov when a named Pasadena receipt is the story. Unitemized gifts and California state filings remain outside $69,184,320 and 219,069.

Citing PASADENA, CA

Name FEC.gov, name contributor city, and print $69,184,320 with 219,069 together. Dropping the line count hides the mean near $316 and Pasadena’s volume shape beside Lake Bluff’s thin file.

If the live hub disagrees with this snapshot, trust the hub. Open original reports on FEC.gov when a named Pasadena receipt matters.

Pasadena’s $69,184,320 on 219,069 lines, mean near $316, is a volume book beside Lake Bluff’s thin file on similar dollars. Keep 219,069 in the citation.

Los Angeles and South Pasadena remain the neighboring strings readers most often want to fold in. This packet does not fold them in. $69,184,320 is PASADENA, CA only.

What a Pasadena reader should carry

Carry FEC.gov, contributor city PASADENA, CA, $69,184,320, and 219,069 lines. The mean near $316 is optional arithmetic. It is not a typical household gift and not a unique-donor average.

Los Angeles, San Marino, Altadena, and South Pasadena stay off this page unless the filer typed PASADENA. California state-office receipts stay off this page. Unitemized federal gifts stay off this page.

State CA on the key stops a same-named Pasadena in another state from merging into this book. Los Angeles County is orientation, not an FEC dimension. The 219,069-line count can include repeat givers.

The live Pasadena hub is the table. This guide is the footnote. If they disagree, trust the hub. Open original reports on FEC.gov when a named Pasadena receipt matters. ZIP pages split a different field.

Pasadena’s 219,069 lines behind $69,184,320, mean near $316, are a volume San Gabriel Valley book. Los Angeles is a separate hub. South Pasadena is a separate string. State CA is required so Pasadena, Texas does not merge here.

Altadena and San Marino are other neighboring strings. Los Angeles County is orientation, not a roll-up. $69,184,320 is PASADENA only.

California state campaigns and unitemized federal gifts sit outside both facts. A high line count can include repeat givers. 219,069 is not a unique-donor census. The Pasadena hub holds the live table. ZIP pages split a different field. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Quote $69,184,320 with 219,069.

Questions

What is Pasadena’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?

Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city PASADENA, CA total $69,184,320 across 219,069 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Pasadena residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.

How should I read Pasadena’s 219,069 contributions?

LobbyVault counts 219,069 itemized lines for PASADENA, CA. That is a line count, not a headcount. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding donors. This packet publishes no unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total is $69,184,320. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 219,069 should not be quoted as a Pasadena population of donors.

Does Pasadena’s total include Los Angeles or South Pasadena?

Only if the filer typed PASADENA. Los Angeles and South Pasadena are separate city strings. $69,184,320 is the PASADENA, CA match. The 219,069 lines follow the same rule. County labels are not an FEC dimension on this hub. Los Angeles County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up on this Pasadena hub.

Where do the Pasadena facts come from?

Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $69,184,320 and 219,069 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. California non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $316 is arithmetic from those two packet numbers.
