JACKSON, WY: $17.0M on 27,224 FEC receipts

27,224 lines carrying $16,962,974

JACKSON shows 27,224 itemizations behind $16,962,974. That mix is a thinner stack with a high average line relative to volume books that post similar dollars on 70,000-plus rows. The implied mean is about $623. Committee receipts that list a JACKSON address still sit in the same column as individual rows.

JACKSON, WY is a Teton mountain-town string, not Jackson, Mississippi. State WY must stay on the citation. Twenty-seven thousand two hundred twenty-four lines against $17.0 million produce a mean near $623. Cheyenne is a different southeast Wyoming key. 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 $16,962,974 as tagged federal receipts, not as what residents of JACKSON gave. The 27,224 lines are disclosed transactions, not unique persons.

If a newsroom map paints JACKSON together with Wilson, Teton Village, and Jackson Hole, the FEC file still splits them. This extract’s only city total is $16,962,974 on 27,224 JACKSON, WY rows, mean near $623. Keep the stored spelling JACKSON in the citation.

Why JACKSON on the receipt is not a census

Searchers often want “how much did people in Jackson give.” The honest citation on this page is narrower: itemized federal receipts with contributor city JACKSON, WY total $16,962,974 across 27,224 contributions. Dropping “itemized” and “contributor city” inflates the claim. This extract is JACKSON with state WY only. Jackson, MS and Jackson, TN are other FEC city keys.

Party is not in this packet. Do not attach a partisan reading to $16,962,974. Occupation and employer may appear on named receipts on the city hub; they are not rolled up here. A mean near $623 is arithmetic from the two packet facts, not a typical household gift.

Outside the JACKSON itemized book

$16,962,974 is not spending by JACKSON candidates. A candidate who lives in JACKSON can raise money from other cities. A donor row tagged JACKSON, WY can go to a committee anywhere. Unitemized federal gifts sit outside both packet facts.

Postal confusion with Wilson, Teton Village, and Jackson Hole is why the city field is a poor residency proxy. $16,962,974 counts rows that stored JACKSON, WY. 27,224 lines. About $623 each. Neighbor names need their own hubs. WY state-office receipts are omitted.

JACKSON versus Cheyenne on the FEC tape

JACKSON is a thin Teton mountain-town book. 27,224 lines produce $16,962,974, a mean near $623. That line count is not a unique-donor count. Comparing this mean to Cheyenne is only valid on the same series: contributor city, itemized federal receipts.

A JACKSON total of $16,962,974 does not absorb Wilson, Teton Village, and Jackson Hole. Those names are other city strings when filers typed them. State WY stays on the citation so JACKSON, WY is not merged with a same-named place elsewhere. Mixing in WY state-campaign data breaks the comparison.

City total versus postal codes in WY

27,224 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 JACKSON 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 JACKSON 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: $16,962,974 and 27,224.

Source tables for $16,962,974

A mean of about $623 is division of $16,962,974 by 27,224. It is fair to report as arithmetic. It is not fair to report as a typical resident of JACKSON. Means move with a few large lines. Internal links on this page go only to the JACKSON city hub, the all-cities directory, and the ZIP directory.

JACKSON’s $16,962,974 across 27,224 contributions is a Teton County city field, mean near $623. Wilson is a neighboring string, not a subset. Teton County is not summed here. Repeat gifts add rows. Cite $16,962,974 with 27,224 from FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. If the live hub disagrees with this snapshot, the newer FEC extract controls.

Questions

How much is itemized from contributor city JACKSON, WY?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor city JACKSON, WY total $16,962,974 across 27,224 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 Jackson. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean near $623 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

Which Jackson is this $17.0M total?

This extract is JACKSON with state WY only. Jackson, MS and Jackson, TN are other FEC city keys. LobbyVault counts 27,224 itemized contributions for JACKSON, WY against $16,962,974. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 27,224 should not be quoted as a population. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does the Jackson total include only residents?

No. The city is the contributor-city value on the FEC itemization. Filers typed JACKSON with state WY. Office addresses and mail that list Jackson can be part of $16,962,974 when that is the city string on the receipt. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 27,224-line count follows the same rule.

Are Jackson numbers from FEC.gov?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $16,962,974 and 27,224 lines for JACKSON, WY. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings from WY are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
