South Baton Rouge’s $12,922,266 file
$12,922,266 is a sum of disclosed federal contribution lines that carried 70808 in the ZIP field. Federal committees anywhere in the country can receive that money. the Louisiana Board of Ethics filings and local municipal races sit outside this extract. Unitemized gifts never enter the total. Quote $12.9M as ZIP-tagged federal disclosure, not as a census of what every household in south Baton Rouge spent.
Thirty-two thousand forty-six rows sits in the middle of $12.9 million ZIP files. A list of this length can still mix large committee transfers with small itemized gifts. This aggregate does not name the mix of individuals and committee traffic that share 70808. East Baton Rouge Parish geography on the form is not a party split. Downtown 70802 and 70810 are other keys.
No party share, cycle series, or unique-person census is attached to $12,922,266. LobbyVault does not recode the ZIP field into a East Baton Rouge Parish political score. Readers who want named payees, dates, or employer strings should open the live hub rather than infer a story from the line count alone. The supported facts in this packet are the dollar total, the contribution count, FEC as source, and the five-digit ZIP definition. Nothing in the packet assigns $12.9M to a party, a cycle, or a unique-person roster.
32,046 contributions without a donor roster
The extract lists 32,046 contributions for 70808. That is a receipt count, not a unique-person census. This packet does not include a distinct-donor total, so this guide does not invent how many people sit behind south Baton Rouge filings. A mid-length file at $12.9M can still mix large committee transfers with small itemized gifts. Repeat gifts and memo entries still add rows. Dollars divided by lines is about $403; that arithmetic is useful only as a shape note next to ZIPs with similar dollars and different row counts.
A list of 32,046 rows is practical to scan by amount. Perkins-corridor offices and household rows both increment 70808 when that ZIP is typed. If a few committee lines account for a visible share of $12,922,266, the committee column on the hub will show it. If the total is many individual names, that will show too. Keep 70808 as a geographic key on the contributor record, not as a south Baton Rouge political score.
70808 as a Schedule A ZIP
Committees report a five-digit contributor ZIP. South Baton Rouge offices, household rows, and committee mail can share the code. Quote $12.9M as ZIP-tagged federal disclosure. Swap that phrase for “south Baton Rouge residents spent” only if the hub rows actually support it. This page will not invent a residential-versus-office split that the packet omitted.
The packet has no residency filter beyond the ZIP box. A contributor who lists a south Baton Rouge address, or a committee that files 70808, adds to the same roll-up when that ZIP is on the itemization. A parish street and a committee that files 70808 both increment the same dollar total. Keep the five digits intact in spreadsheets. Dropped leading zeros and truncated codes fail to match 70808.
Opening the 70808 table
The ZIP 70808 FEC page is the itemized table behind $12,922,266 and 32,046 contributions. The all-ZIP index is the comparison catalog. The donor directory searches names across the FEC file. FEC.gov is the originating system. LobbyVault indexes the ZIP field so the packet facts can be quoted without assembling Schedule A reports by hand.
70806, 70809, and 70810 are separate Baton Rouge keys; do not add them to 70808. Open the hub for committee names, amounts, and dates that this summary does not carry. This guide stays inside the harvested facts and does not add cycle splits, employer roll-ups, or occupation tables that the packet omitted. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing on FEC.gov controls.
What 70808 leaves out
No unique-donor count, party split, cycle trend, or per-resident ratio appears here. Those facts are not in the packet. Louisiana Board of Ethics state reports are out. Baton Rouge municipal races are out. So is any unitemized federal gift. the Louisiana Board of Ethics filings never enter the federal ZIP total. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are also out, even when an advertisement mentions south Baton Rouge. Cite $12,922,266 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 70808.
A usable citation names ZIP 70808, $12,922,266, 32,046 itemized contributions, and FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. Add that the mean is about $403 only if you also say it is dollars divided by lines. Cite 70808 as one south-side ZIP, not as an East Baton Rouge FEC total. Amendments can restate large transfers without rewriting most small lines, so recheck the live page after quarterly filings.
