CHERRY HILL, NJ: $21.4M on 67,160 FEC receipts

67,160 lines carrying $21,407,376

The headline pair is $21,407,376 and 67,160 lines. The implied average is about $319. Cite both numbers. Quoting only the dollars drops the line-count shape of the CHERRY HILL book. Camden County filers typed CHERRY HILL with state NJ.

Cherry Hill is a Camden County, New Jersey string. Philadelphia rows that list PHILADELPHIA or PHILA sit on Pennsylvania keys. Haddonfield and Voorhees are neighboring NJ strings, not subsets. 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. Read $21,407,376 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of CHERRY HILL gave. The 67,160 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints CHERRY HILL together with Haddonfield, Voorhees, and Philadelphia, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $21,407,376 on 67,160 CHERRY HILL, NJ rows, mean near $319. Keep the stored spelling CHERRY HILL in the citation.

Why CHERRY HILL on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Cherry Hill give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city CHERRY HILL, NJ total $21,407,376 across 67,160 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. No. CHERRY HILL, NJ is a New Jersey city field. Philadelphia spellings are Pennsylvania keys.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $21,407,376. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $319 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Outside the CHERRY HILL itemized book

$21,407,376 is not spending by CHERRY HILL candidates. A candidate who lives in CHERRY HILL can raise money from other cities. A donor row tagged CHERRY HILL, NJ can go to a committee anywhere. Unitemized federal gifts sit outside both packet facts.

Postal confusion with Haddonfield, Voorhees, and Philadelphia is why the city field is a poor residency proxy. $21,407,376 counts rows that stored CHERRY HILL, NJ. 67,160 lines. About $319 each. Neighbor names need their own hubs. NJ state-office receipts are omitted.

CHERRY HILL versus Philadelphia on the FEC tape

CHERRY HILL is a Camden County mid-volume book. 67,160 lines produce $21,407,376, a mean near $319. That line count is not a unique-donor count. Comparing this mean to Philadelphia is only valid on the same series: contributor city, itemized federal receipts.

A CHERRY HILL total of $21,407,376 does not absorb Haddonfield, Voorhees, and Philadelphia. Those names are other city strings when filers typed them. State NJ stays on the citation so CHERRY HILL, NJ is not merged with a same-named place elsewhere. Mixing in NJ state-campaign data breaks the comparison.

City total versus postal codes in NJ

67,160 city-field lines can spread across many ZIPs or cluster in a few. This packet does not list those ZIPs. Open the ZIP directory and the live CHERRY HILL hub rather than guessing the split. After an amendment wave, recheck both the city hub and any ZIP you compared. Snapshots drift independently.

Because this packet carries only city, state, dollar total, and contribution count, every other story about CHERRY HILL politics sits outside the extract. That includes candidate quality, issue fights, and local election results. This guide stays on the two numbers FEC.gov supplied for the city field: $21,407,376 and 67,160.

Source tables for $21,407,376
