KENILWORTH, IL: $27.9M on 19,458 FEC receipts

A small line count on a $28 million book

Nineteen thousand four hundred fifty-eight lines produce $27,866,773. Divide the pair and the mean itemized line is about $1,432. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts. It is not a typical household gift and not a unique-donor figure. FEC.gov does not publish a median on this city aggregate.

Winnetka, Wilmette, and Evanston keep separate Illinois hubs. They are not inside $27,866,773 unless the filer typed KENILWORTH. Cook County is orientation, not an FEC roll-up.

Village string, not the North Shore

North Shore is a regional label. FEC.gov stores a city field. This packet publishes KENILWORTH, IL only: $27,866,773 and 19,458 lines. Adding Winnetka would be a recode.

State IL on the key is required in the citation. Recheck both facts on the live hub if a later extract lands.

City field versus postal map

FEC.gov stores whatever city appeared on the itemized receipt. KENILWORTH plus IL is the match. Recoding into a Census place or a Chicago metro label is a different dataset.

ZIP pages cut the same federal series by postal code. Summing North Shore ZIPs can diverge from $27,866,773 when some receipts used Winnetka or Wilmette as the city. The 19,458-line count follows the city field.

Limits of the Kenilworth aggregate

Illinois state campaigns file under state law. Those receipts are outside $27,866,773 and outside 19,458. Unitemized federal gifts are omitted. Independent expenditures that never appear as contribution itemizations are outside both facts.

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

Citing KENILWORTH, IL

Name FEC.gov, name contributor city, and print $27,866,773 with 19,458 together. Dropping the line count hides why the mean sits near $1,432.

Office addresses can share the Kenilworth city field with household streets. Totals can include a PAC or joint-fundraising address when that is what filers typed. The 19,458 lines are receipts, not unique persons. If the live hub disagrees with this snapshot, trust the hub. Open original reports on FEC.gov when a named Kenilworth receipt matters.

How researchers should use the Kenilworth hub

Start on the live Kenilworth city page, then open ZIP pages if a postal cut is the real question. $27,866,773 is the city-string dollar total in this snapshot. 19,458 is the matching line count. Those two numbers move together when FEC.gov amends a receipt. They do not move because a researcher prefers Winnetka as the “real” North Shore. Filers typed KENILWORTH. LobbyVault indexed KENILWORTH.

A mean near $1,432 is only $27,866,773 divided by 19,458. The small line count is the shape of this extract, not a character study of the village. Occupation, recipient, and party are different FEC fields. None of those fields are in this packet. Cite the pair: contributor city KENILWORTH, IL, $27,866,773, 19,458 itemized federal contributions, source FEC.gov via LobbyVault. Illinois non-federal filings never enter either fact.

Kenilworth is a small North Shore village on the map. FEC.gov still stores a city field, not a population rank. $27,866,773 on 19,458 lines is the distinctive shape: a compact book and a mean near $1,432. That mean is division. It is not a typical gift, not a unique-donor figure, and not a statement about the village.

Winnetka and Wilmette keep separate hubs. Illinois non-federal filings stay outside. Cite KENILWORTH, IL with both packet facts. Recheck the live hub. ZIP pages that mix North Shore places will diverge from this pair. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Kenilworth’s 19,458 lines on $27,866,773 are the compact extreme of this batch. The mean near $1,432 is that quotient. It is not a typical gift. Winnetka stays out unless a filer typed KENILWORTH. Illinois state filings stay outside. Cite KENILWORTH, IL with both packet facts. Recheck the live hub. Unique donors are unpublished. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Keep KENILWORTH, IL, $27,866,773, and 19,458 in one citation. The mean near $1,432 is those two numbers divided. Winnetka remains a separate string. Wilmette remains a separate string. North Shore remains a regional label. Illinois non-federal filings remain outside. Unitemized federal gifts remain outside. Independent expenditures that are not contribution itemizations remain outside. Start on the live city page. Open ZIP pages for a postal cut. Open FEC.gov for a named Kenilworth receipt. Do not treat the mean as a typical village gift.

Questions

What is Kenilworth’s federal contribution total on LobbyVault?

Itemized FEC.gov receipts listing contributor city KENILWORTH, IL total $27,866,773 across 19,458 contributions. That pair is a city-string roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of Kenilworth residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside both figures.

Why is Kenilworth’s mean near $1,432?

Divide $27,866,773 by 19,458 and the arithmetic mean is about $1,432. The line count is much smaller than on many $28 million city hubs. That is a shape fact, not a typical gift. This packet publishes no unique-donor figure and no median.

Does Kenilworth’s total include Winnetka or Wilmette?

Only if the filer typed KENILWORTH. Winnetka, Wilmette, and Evanston are separate city strings when they appear that way on the receipt. $27,866,773 is the KENILWORTH, IL match. The 19,458 lines follow the same rule. North Shore is not an FEC dimension on this hub.

Where do the Kenilworth facts come from?

Both facts come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $27,866,773 and 19,458 lines. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Illinois non-federal filings are outside the pair. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $1,432 is arithmetic from those two packet numbers.
