CHAPPAQUA, NY: $21.5M on 47,481 FEC receipts

47,481 lines carrying $21,494,446

The headline pair is $21,494,446 and 47,481 lines. The implied average is about $453. Cite both numbers. Quoting only the dollars drops the line-count shape of the CHAPPAQUA book. Westchester County filers typed CHAPPAQUA with state NY.

Chappaqua is a Westchester hamlet string, not a New York City merge. Mount Kisco and Pleasantville are neighboring keys. White Plains is the county seat on a different hub. 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 $21,494,446 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of CHAPPAQUA gave. The 47,481 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints CHAPPAQUA together with Mount Kisco, Pleasantville, and Armonk, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $21,494,446 on 47,481 CHAPPAQUA, NY rows, mean near $453. Keep the stored spelling CHAPPAQUA in the citation.

Why CHAPPAQUA on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Chappaqua give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city CHAPPAQUA, NY total $21,494,446 across 47,481 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. No. CHAPPAQUA, NY is a Westchester County city field. New York City borough strings are other keys.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $21,494,446. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $453 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Outside the CHAPPAQUA itemized book

$21,494,446 is not spending by CHAPPAQUA candidates. A candidate who lives in CHAPPAQUA can raise money from other cities. A donor row tagged CHAPPAQUA, NY can go to a committee anywhere. Unitemized federal gifts sit outside both packet facts.

Postal confusion with Mount Kisco, Pleasantville, and Armonk is why the city field is a poor residency proxy. $21,494,446 counts rows that stored CHAPPAQUA, NY. 47,481 lines. About $453 each. Neighbor names need their own hubs. NY state-office receipts are omitted.

CHAPPAQUA versus White Plains on the FEC tape

CHAPPAQUA is a northern Westchester hamlet book. 47,481 lines produce $21,494,446, a mean near $453. That line count is not a unique-donor count. Comparing this mean to White Plains is only valid on the same series: contributor city, itemized federal receipts.

A CHAPPAQUA total of $21,494,446 does not absorb Mount Kisco, Pleasantville, and Armonk. Those names are other city strings when filers typed them. State NY stays on the citation so CHAPPAQUA, NY is not merged with a same-named place elsewhere. Mixing in NY state-campaign data breaks the comparison.

City total versus postal codes in NY

47,481 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 CHAPPAQUA 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 CHAPPAQUA 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: $21,494,446 and 47,481.

Source tables for $21,494,446

A mean of about $453 is division of $21,494,446 by 47,481. It is fair to report as arithmetic. It is not fair to report as a typical resident of CHAPPAQUA. Means move with a few large lines.

CHAPPAQUA’s $21,494,446 across 47,481 contributions is a Westchester County city field, mean near $453. Mount Kisco is a neighboring string, not a subset. Westchester County is not summed here.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city CHAPPAQUA, NY?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city CHAPPAQUA, NY total $21,494,446 across 47,481 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 Chappaqua. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $453 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

Is Chappaqua part of New York City on this page?

No. CHAPPAQUA, NY is a Westchester County city field. New York City borough strings are other keys. LobbyVault counts 47,481 itemized contributions for CHAPPAQUA, NY against $21,494,446. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 47,481 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does the Chappaqua total include only residents?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed CHAPPAQUA with state NY. Office addresses and mail that list Chappaqua can be part of $21,494,446 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 47,481-line count follows the same rule.

Are Chappaqua numbers from FEC.gov?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $21,494,446 and 47,481 lines for CHAPPAQUA, NY. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from NY are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
