Federal contributions itemized with ZIP 10003

High volume under ZIP 10003

$78,578,514 divided by 167,905 is about $468 per itemized line. A mean near $468 on 167,905 lines is a volume pattern. University-adjacent streets do not tag FEC lines as student or faculty gifts. PAC addresses can still share 10003 with personal itemizations. Large PAC or joint-fundraising itemizations can still sit inside $78,578,514. They show up when you sort the ZIP 10003 FEC page by amount.

167,905 contributions is an itemization count, not a unique-person count. Repeat givers, online itemized gifts, and memo entries can lengthen the list. This packet has no donor headcount. Cite 167,905 as a contribution-line total.

No party split is attached to $78,578,514. Local reputation is not an FEC field. The Commission stores a ZIP string. LobbyVault reports the roll-up of FEC.gov itemizations labeled 10003.

10003 as a contributor ZIP, not a campus

A PAC or joint fundraising committee that lists an address in Manhattan’s East Village / Union Square area still posts 10003 when that is the ZIP on Schedule A. Individuals who list the ZIP add the same way. $78,578,514 is therefore not automatically what residents of Manhattan’s East Village / Union Square area gave. It is what was itemized with that five-digit code.

The 167,905-line count is the research lead. Open named receipts on the ZIP 10003 FEC page if you need committees. This guide will not infer a grassroots story or a bundler story from a $468 mean. Manhattan’s East Village / Union Square area geography explains the search query; the table decides the mix of payers.

What $78,578,514 omits

Unitemized federal gifts are omitted. New York State office campaigns are omitted. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are omitted. Cite $78,578,514 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 10003, from FEC.gov.

A restated joint-fundraising block can still move the headline. Recheck the live ZIP 10003 FEC page after large filings. This prose is a snapshot of FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Committee mail in lower Manhattan is why a purely residential reading of $78,578,514 fails. A PAC, a joint fundraising committee, or a work address that lists 10003 is counted. FEC.gov stored the ZIP that was filed. LobbyVault summed it. Recoding those rows out of $78,578,514 would be a new dataset.

10003 beside other Manhattan codes

The all-ZIP directory ranks the same series. Other lower manhattan codes have their own dollar totals and line counts. Adding 10003 to those codes is a recode you must document; it is not this $78,578,514 figure. Compare 167,905 lines against neighboring codes as filing shape. FEC.gov does not rank which part of lower Manhattan is more engaged.

Independent expenditures mentioning a race near Manhattan’s East Village / Union Square area can be paid by a committee with a different ZIP. Those disbursements do not move $78,578,514. Mixing independent-expenditure tables with this ZIP total double-counts some activity and misses other activity. Keep the series separate.

Source and next clicks

The ZIP 10003 FEC page holds $78,578,514 and 167,905 as currently indexed. The all-ZIP directory ranks other codes. The donor directory lists names on itemized rows. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov controls. No postcard narrative is attached to the ZIP field.

Title, H1, and table on the live hub should show the same $78,578,514 and 167,905 this guide cites. If they do not, the hub was rebuilt from a newer extract. Trust the hub over this paragraph. Guides are snapshots of FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

How to cite ZIP 10003 without inflating Manhattan’s East Village / Union Square area

The accurate citation is: itemized federal receipts with contributor ZIP 10003 total $78,578,514 across 167,905 contributions, according to FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. Shorthand such as “the East Village donated $78,578,514” drops the itemized-only limit and the PAC-address caveat. Keep both limits in the sentence at least once.

A mean of about $468 describes this ZIP’s filing shape. It does not describe a median resident. Because this packet has no unique-donor count, 167,905 stays a line count. Researchers who need persons must match names on the ZIP 10003 FEC page rather than dividing $78,578,514 by a guessed household count.

ZIP 10003 will keep attracting neighborhood-giving queries because searchers use ZIP as a proxy for Manhattan’s East Village / Union Square area. FEC.gov does not use ZIP that way. It stores a five-digit contributor field. $78,578,514 across 167,905 lines is what that field sums to in this aggregate. Unique donors are not in the packet. Party is not in the packet. The PAC and joint-fundraising caveat is in the source note and belongs in any careful citation. Use the all-ZIP directory only to compare other codes on the same series. Use the donor directory for names. If the live hub reprints a different $78,578,514 or 167,905, the newer FEC extract wins and this snapshot is stale.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 10003?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 10003 total $78,578,514 across 167,905 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of people who live in Manhattan’s East Village / Union Square area. Joint fundraising committees and PAC addresses can appear in $78,578,514 when that five-digit code was filed. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 10003?

LobbyVault counts 167,905 itemized contributions for ZIP 10003. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure, so 167,905 should not be quoted as a population. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $78,578,514, a mean near $468.

Does ZIP 10003 include only residents of Manhattan’s East Village / Union Square area?

No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. PAC mail drops, joint fundraising committees, and office addresses in Manhattan’s East Village / Union Square area can be part of $78,578,514 when 10003 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 167,905-line count follows the same rule. Open named receipts on the ZIP hub to see which committees appear.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 10003 totals?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $78,578,514 and 167,905 lines for ZIP 10003. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and New York State office campaigns are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $468 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
