Key figures
- Arlington, VA contributor-city receipts total $801,865,991.
- Those dollars sit on 675,726 FEC itemizations.
- District of Columbia records are stored as a separate city string.
- PAC and joint-fundraising addresses can appear in the city field.
- ZIP pages split the same federal filings by postal code.
An inner-Beltway city string with $802 million tagged
The $801,865,991 sum is every loaded federal itemization whose contributor city is Arlington and whose state is VA. Six hundred seventy-five thousand seven hundred twenty-six lines feed that total. LobbyVault does not test whether the address is a Crystal City office or a residential street. If the committee typed Arlington, VA, the receipt stays here. That rule keeps the hub aligned with the public file.
Washington, DC and Alexandria are stored as their own city strings. They are not inside this Arlington number. Totals can include PAC and joint-fundraising addresses, not only residents. Quoting $801,865,991 as what Arlingtonians gave describes the city field, not a residency screen. The 675,726 lines are disclosed receipts, not unique persons.
Nothing on this page estimates how Arlington 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 Arlington city table, then ZIP pages, then the cities index. The two facts to carry are $801,865,991 and 675,726 itemizations.
Fewer lines than some large-dollar cities
Compared with the dollar total, 675,726 itemizations is a tighter file than city hubs that carry similar money on well over a million lines. That mix can happen when larger committee receipts share the city field with ordinary individual contributions. This page does not split those types. It reports the combined $801,865,991 and the combined line count so readers can see both facts at once.
Free-text spelling still matters. A committee that typed a neighborhood name or a different Virginia city would not land in this hub. The 675,726 records are the literal ARLINGTON match. A National Capital Region research question requires adding DC and Maryland/Virginia labels by hand. This guide does not invent that metro sum.
Virginia state campaign accounts are not inside $801,865,991. This hub is federal itemizations whose city field is Arlington, VA, totaling 675,726 records. A Beltway briefing that blends DC, Maryland, and Virginia labels is a different object. Add those hubs only if that is the research question, and keep this page’s two facts unchanged.
ZIP codes along the Potomac corridor
Postal codes on the same itemizations separate office-heavy ZIPs from neighborhood ZIPs. The city page still shows $801,865,991 and 675,726 contributions. ZIP pages regroup those FEC.gov lines without adding party scores or legal findings. A ZIP that hosts several association headquarters can look large relative to overnight population. That is an address-field effect.
If an outside chart disagrees, check date range, individuals-only filters, and whether the publisher rolled Arlington into Washington. This rollup keeps every loaded itemization whose city field is Arlington, VA.
What the Arlington table omits
Virginia state campaign accounts and local filings 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 $801,865,991 and 675,726 records listing Arlington, VA. Nothing here estimates how Arlington voted.
Arlington’s place on the Potomac means contractor and association suites share the city field with garden apartments and single-family streets. The $801,865,991 total does not say which address type dominates any ZIP. The 675,726 itemizations are the full tagged file. Use postal-code pages to see concentration, still without converting the table into a voter file.
Source and how to continue
All figures are Federal Election Commission contribution itemizations aggregated by contributor city. Open the Arlington city page for the live table, the cities index for other Virginia labels, and ZIP pages for postal-code cuts of the same 675,726 lines. No additional dollar fact is used beyond $801,865,991.
