Capitol Hill ZIP 20002 in FEC data

$81,330,741 divided by 138,574 is about $587 per itemized line. A mean near $587 on 138,574 lines is a high-volume District pattern. Association and PAC offices near the Capitol can share 20002 with households. Read large rows before treating the ZIP as a neighborhood census. Large PAC or joint-fundraising itemizations can still sit inside $81,330,741. They show up when you sort the ZIP 20002 FEC page by amount.

138,574 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 138,574 as a contribution-line total.

No party split is attached to $81,330,741. Local reputation is not an FEC field. The Commission stores a ZIP string. LobbyVault reports the roll-up of FEC.gov itemizations labeled 20002.

20002 as a contributor ZIP, not a ward map

A PAC or joint fundraising committee that lists an address in Washington, D.C.’s Capitol Hill / Near Northeast area still posts 20002 when that is the ZIP on Schedule A. Individuals who list the ZIP add the same way. $81,330,741 is therefore not automatically what residents of Washington, D.C.’s Capitol Hill / Near Northeast area gave. It is what was itemized with that five-digit code.

The 138,574-line count is the research lead. Open named receipts on the ZIP 20002 FEC page if you need committees. This guide will not infer a grassroots story or a bundler story from a $587 mean. Washington, D.C.’s Capitol Hill / Near Northeast area geography explains the search query; the table decides the mix of payers.

What $81,330,741 omits

Unitemized federal gifts are omitted. D.C. local office campaigns are omitted. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are omitted. Cite $81,330,741 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 20002, from FEC.gov.

A restated joint-fundraising block can still move the headline. Recheck the live ZIP 20002 FEC page after large filings. This prose is a snapshot of FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Committee mail in D.C. east of the Capitol is why a purely residential reading of $81,330,741 fails. A PAC, a joint fundraising committee, or a work address that lists 20002 is counted. FEC.gov stored the ZIP that was filed. LobbyVault summed it. Recoding those rows out of $81,330,741 would be a new dataset.

20002 beside other D.C. codes

The all-ZIP directory ranks the same series. Other d.c. codes have their own dollar totals and line counts. Adding 20002 to those codes is a recode you must document; it is not this $81,330,741 figure. Compare 138,574 lines against neighboring codes as filing shape. FEC.gov does not rank which part of D.C. east of the Capitol is more engaged.

Independent expenditures mentioning a race near Washington, D.C.’s Capitol Hill / Near Northeast area can be paid by a committee with a different ZIP. Those disbursements do not move $81,330,741. 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 20002 FEC page holds $81,330,741 and 138,574 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 $81,330,741 and 138,574 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 20002 without inflating Washington, D.C.’s Capitol Hill / Near Northeast area

The accurate citation is: itemized federal receipts with contributor ZIP 20002 total $81,330,741 across 138,574 contributions, according to FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. Shorthand such as “Capitol Hill donated $81,330,741” drops the itemized-only limit and the PAC-address caveat. Keep both limits in the sentence at least once.

A mean of about $587 describes this ZIP’s filing shape. It does not describe a median resident. Because this packet has no unique-donor count, 138,574 stays a line count. Researchers who need persons must match names on the ZIP 20002 FEC page rather than dividing $81,330,741 by a guessed household count.

ZIP 20002 will keep attracting neighborhood-giving queries because searchers use ZIP as a proxy for Washington, D.C.’s Capitol Hill / Near Northeast area. FEC.gov does not use ZIP that way. It stores a five-digit contributor field. $81,330,741 across 138,574 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 $81,330,741 or 138,574, the newer FEC extract wins and this snapshot is stale.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 20002?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 20002 total $81,330,741 across 138,574 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 Washington, D.C.’s Capitol Hill / Near Northeast area. Joint fundraising committees and PAC addresses can appear in $81,330,741 when that five-digit code was filed. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 20002?

LobbyVault counts 138,574 itemized contributions for ZIP 20002. 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 138,574 should not be quoted as a population. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $81,330,741, a mean near $587.

Does ZIP 20002 include only residents of Washington, D.C.’s Capitol Hill / Near Northeast area?

No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. PAC mail drops, joint fundraising committees, and office addresses in Washington, D.C.’s Capitol Hill / Near Northeast area can be part of $81,330,741 when 20002 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 138,574-line count follows the same rule. Open named receipts on the ZIP hub to see which committees appear.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 20002 totals?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $81,330,741 and 138,574 lines for ZIP 20002. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and D.C. local office campaigns are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls. The mean of about $587 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
