Federal contributions from ZIP 27408

What $16,976,090 attached to 27408 means

The dollar total is a sum of disclosed federal contribution lines that carried 27408. Recipients can be federal committees anywhere. North Carolina state and municipal races generally sit outside this FEC extract. Unitemized gifts never enter the $16,976,090 figure.

Twenty-four thousand eight hundred seventy-five rows is a thinner file than many codes at this dollar scale. Thinner files often hide larger individual lines, including committee-side money, but this page will not publish an average as an FEC statistic. It will say only that 27408’s disclosed volume sits on a shorter list than the densest ZIPs in the same band.

Greensboro’s 27408 file is short enough that a spreadsheet export of the hub is realistic. Twenty-four thousand eight hundred seventy-five rows at $16,976,090 can be sorted locally. That does not change the rules: unitemized gifts are still missing, and PAC addresses are still inside the ZIP total if they used 27408.

24,875 contributions as rows

The extract lists 24,875 contributions for 27408. That is a receipt count, not a unique-donor census. This packet does not include a distinct-person total, so this guide does not invent how many individuals live behind the ZIP. Repeat gifts and joint-fundraising splits still add rows even in a shorter file.

A list this length is practical to sort. If a handful of PAC or joint-fundraising lines account for a large share of $16,976,090, that will be obvious on the 27408 hub. If the total is spread across many individual names, that will be obvious too. The summary numbers cannot settle the question.

North Carolina state disclosure will not complete this table. It is a different filing system. Caption $16,976,090 as FEC federal ZIP-tagged money. If a state-race question remains, it needs state data, not a footnote pretending this packet contains it.

The five-digit ZIP on Greensboro-area receipts

Committees report a five-digit contributor ZIP. Totals can include joint fundraising and PAC addresses, not only residents. An office, a committee mailbox, or a professional suite in 27408 can share the code with household addresses.

Quote $16,976,090 as ZIP-tagged federal disclosure. Swap that phrase for “Greensboro residents spent” only if the hub rows actually support it. The packet does not include a residency filter.

A short list also makes missing rows more noticeable. If a known committee is absent, it may have itemized a different ZIP. That is a reporting-address fact, not proof the committee received nothing from people connected to 27408. The field is the ZIP on the receipt, not a social graph.

Where 27408 receipts are listed

The ZIP 27408 FEC page is the itemized table behind $16,976,090 and 24,875 contributions. The all-ZIP index is the comparison catalog, useful here because 27408’s row count is modest for its dollar total. The donor directory searches names across the FEC file.

FEC.gov is the originating disclosure system. LobbyVault indexes the ZIP field so the packet facts can be quoted directly.

Limits of the 27408 caption

No unique-donor count, party split, cycle trend, or per-resident ratio appears here. Those facts are not in the packet. The supported statements are the dollar total, the contribution count, FEC as source, and the five-digit ZIP definition.

A shorter Greensboro file and how to audit it

ZIP 27408 puts $16,976,090 on 24,875 contributions. A shorter list at this dollar scale is a reason to audit the top of the table first. If a PAC or joint-fundraising committee used 27408, it will be easier to see here than in a much longer ZIP file. Unitemized gifts are still missing. Individual receipts are still present if they were itemized with this five-digit code.

Twenty-four thousand eight hundred seventy-five is not a unique-donor count. This packet does not include one. Repeat gifts add rows even in a compact file. North Carolina state and Greensboro municipal data are outside this extract. The $16,976,090 figure funds federal committees, not a city race by default.

Workflow: open the ZIP 27408 FEC page, sort by amount, read committee names, then sample smaller lines. Use the all-ZIP index only as a catalog. Use the donor directory for name search. Quote FEC.gov. Do not publish an average gift as a Commission statistic. Do not publish a per-resident ratio.

Questions

How much did ZIP 27408 show in FEC itemized totals?

Receipts listing 27408 total $16,976,090 across 24,875 contributions. Those figures are FEC disclosure aggregates for the five-digit contributor ZIP. They are not a unique-donor census and not North Carolina state campaign totals. LobbyVault indexes those FEC.gov itemizations so $16,976,090 and 24,875 contributions can be checked on the ZIP 27408 hub without assembling committee reports by hand.

Why does 27408 have 24,875 contributions at this dollar total?

The 24,875 figure is the itemized row count. Similar dollar totals elsewhere can sit on much longer files. That difference is a clue to mix, not a published average gift and not a unique-donor total. This packet does not include a distinct-person statistic. The ZIP hub shows the receipts.

Are PAC addresses included in ZIP 27408?

They can be. FEC stores the five-digit ZIP on the contribution. Joint-fundraising committees and PAC mail using 27408 can sit inside the $16,976,090 sum. Check committee names on the ZIP 27408 FEC page before treating the total as household-only. Read committee names on the largest ZIP 27408 lines before treating $16,976,090 as household-only money; the five-digit field does not make that distinction by itself.

Where can I see 27408 itemizations?

On the ZIP 27408 FEC page. Compare codes on the all-ZIP index and search names in the donor directory. Original filings are on FEC.gov. Those three LobbyVault paths plus FEC.gov are the full working set for verifying $16,976,090 and 24,875 contributions tagged to ZIP 27408.
