Federal contributions listing Philadelphia, PA

Philadelphia, PA appears as the contributor city on $322,266,398 in federal receipts across 832,561 FEC itemizations. Those figures come from FEC.gov filings grouped on LobbyVault by city and state. Center City offices, national committee mail rooms, and household streets can share that city string. The total is tagged activity, not a roster of Philadelphians who donated. Those two FEC.gov facts—$322,266,398 and 832,561 itemizations—are the entire numeric claim this Philadelphia guide makes.

Key figures

  • Philadelphia, PA contributor-city receipts total $322,266,398.
  • Those dollars sit on 832,561 FEC itemizations.
  • Suburban city strings are not silently merged into this hub.
  • PAC and joint-fundraising addresses can appear in the city field.
  • ZIP pages split the same federal filings by postal code.

What $322 million on the Philadelphia city field covers

The $322,266,398 sum is every loaded federal itemization whose contributor city is Philadelphia and whose state is PA. Eight hundred thirty-two thousand five hundred sixty-one lines feed that total. LobbyVault does not test whether an address is a law-firm PAC, a union office, or a residential street. If the committee typed Philadelphia, PA, the receipt stays here. That mechanical rule keeps the hub aligned with the public file.

Camden, Wilmington, and suburban Pennsylvania labels are stored as their own city strings when committees type them that way. They are not silently folded into this hub. Totals can include PAC and joint-fundraising addresses, not only residents. Quoting $322,266,398 as what Philadelphians gave describes the city field, not a residency screen. The 832,561 lines are disclosed receipts, not unique persons.

Nothing on this page estimates how Philadelphia voted, which candidates the receipts supported, or whether a listed street is a home. Occupation and recipient committee live on other FEC fields. The supported path is the Philadelphia city table, then ZIP pages, then the cities index. The two facts to carry are $322,266,398 and 832,561 itemizations.

Reading the 832,561 itemizations

A count of 832,561 lines means the Philadelphia aggregate is a substantial file, not a handful of oversized transfers. Individual receipts and committee receipts share the same city column. This page does not strip one type. It reports the combined dollars and the combined line count so both facts stay visible.

Free-text spelling still splits the region. A committee that typed a Main Line borough would not land in this PHILADELPHIA bucket. The 832,561 records are the literal match. A combined metro research question requires adding other city hubs by design. This guide does not invent that merge or extra dollar amounts.

Pennsylvania state campaign accounts are not inside $322,266,398. This hub is federal itemizations labeled Philadelphia, PA: 832,561 records. A regional briefing that blends Camden or the Main Line is a different object unless those labels are added on purpose. Keep this page’s two facts unchanged when you cite it.

ZIP codes on the same filings

Postal codes separate Center City commercial ZIPs from neighborhood ZIPs. The city page still shows $322,266,398 and 832,561 contributions. ZIP pages regroup those FEC.gov lines without adding party scores or legal findings. A ZIP that hosts several association or committee offices can look large relative to overnight population.

If an outside chart disagrees, check date range, individuals-only filters, and whether the publisher rolled suburbs into Philadelphia. This rollup keeps every loaded itemization whose city field is Philadelphia, PA.

What the Philadelphia table omits

Pennsylvania state campaign accounts are a different disclosure system. Independent expenditures that never appear as contribution itemizations are also outside these two facts. Occupation and recipient committee live on other FEC fields. The defining pair remains $322,266,398 and 832,561 records listing Philadelphia, PA. Nothing here estimates how the city voted.

Philadelphia’s Center City office inventory and neighborhood streets share one city string. The $322,266,398 total does not sort them. The 832,561 itemizations are every loaded line labeled Philadelphia, PA. New Jersey and Main Line labels stay on other hubs. ZIP pages are the geographic cut inside this string.
