Federal contributions itemized with ZIP 33496

Forty-seven thousand Boca Raton lines

$21,297,736 divided by 47,601 is about $447 per itemized line. Northern Boca Raton mail shares those five digits on Schedule A. That $447 figure is arithmetic from the packet, not a median gift and not a typical Palm Beach County household.

Forty-seven thousand six hundred one itemizations is a long receipt list. Repeat gifts, seasonal-address itemizations, and bundled events can all add rows. 47,601 is not a headcount of people in Boca Raton.

No party share is attached to $21,297,736. 33496 is a geographic key on the contributor record. Cite 47,601 contributions with that total whenever the ZIP is quoted.

A seasonal-and-year-round ZIP on FEC forms

33496 covers parts of Boca Raton. A contributor who lists a winter address, a year-round home, or a committee that files 33496 adds to $21,297,736 when that ZIP is on the itemization. Treating the total as household-only giving misstates the field.

The 47,601-line count includes memo entries and redesignations. This guide does not invent a person count the packet omitted. Florida geography is orientation only.

What $21,297,736 leaves out

Unitemized federal gifts are out. Florida state campaign filings that never reach the FEC are out. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are out. Cite $21,297,736 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 33496, from FEC.gov.

A Boca Raton ZIP still moves when schedules are amended. Recheck the ZIP 33496 FEC page after a restatement. Compare extract dates before treating two published totals as a contradiction.

LobbyVault is the index, not the filing system. Named receipts answer identity questions this 47,601-line roll-up cannot. The mean of about $447 is $21,297,736 divided by 47,601. Quote the pair. The packet has no unique-donor field.

How researchers should quote 33496

Write that itemized federal receipts with contributor ZIP 33496 total $21,297,736 across 47,601 contributions, according to FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. A mean of about $447 is optional arithmetic. Do not convert 47,601 into unique Boca Raton givers. Do not convert $21,297,736 into a seasonal-resident census. FEC.gov does not flag winter addresses. Party is not in the packet.

Northern Boca Raton mail on 33496 is orientation. A year-round home, a seasonal condo, or a committee that filed 33496 adds to $21,297,736 when that ZIP is on the itemization. LobbyVault does not recode those rows into snowbird versus year-round books. Treating 47,601 as unique people overstates the roster.

Do not add 33496 to 33431, 33432, or 33486 into a Boca Raton total on this page. The all-ZIP directory ranks codes on the same series. If the live ZIP 33496 FEC page reprints a different pair, trust the hub. Florida state filings sit outside $21,297,736. Unitemized federal gifts sit outside it. Named receipts on the donor directory answer identity questions this 47,601-line roll-up cannot. Recheck after cycle-close amendments.

A researcher who only quotes $21,297,736 without 47,601 hides the $447 mean. Quote both. If a committee later amends the ZIP field on a large Boca Raton row, both figures move. Recheck the ZIP 33496 FEC page. This file is a snapshot of FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault, not an amendment log. LobbyVault indexes FEC.gov; it does not replace the Commission’s reports for ZIP 33496.
