Federal contributions from ZIP 94102: $14.3M

Civic Center mail is not all of San Francisco

$14,256,311 divided by 30,761 is about $463 per itemized line. 94103, 94109, and 94108 are different roll-ups. The packet has a dollar total and a contribution count. It does not have a unique-donor count or a citywide sum.

Thirty thousand seven hundred sixty-one contributions is a working list. Civic offices, residential hotels, and any committee that prints 94102 add rows. Do not treat 30,761 as a census of the Tenderloin. LobbyVault does not treat $14,256,311 as a ranking of San Francisco civic mood.

Market Street ZIP on a federal form

A civic-area suite and a residential listing can share 94102. $14,256,311 follows the form. Open the ZIP 94102 FEC page for named receipts. This guide will not split the 30,761 rows into household and office piles. California state-office filings are a different dataset.

Adding 94102 to other San Francisco ZIPs and calling the sum a city FEC total is a recode you must document. This page reports $14,256,311 for 94102 only.

What stays outside $14,256,311

Unitemized federal gifts never enter. California state-office campaigns never enter. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP never enter, even if they mention a San Francisco race. Cite $14,256,311 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 94102. Recheck the live hub after quarterly filings.

Live hub for 94102

The ZIP 94102 FEC page holds $14,256,311 and 30,761 as currently indexed. The all-ZIP directory places the code among others. The donor directory lists names on itemized receipts. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov controls. This packet does not publish a unique-donor count.

Reading 94102 next to the rest of the ZIP directory

The all-ZIP directory exists so 94102 can be placed among other five-digit keys without turning $14,256,311 into a metro story. Civic Center / Tenderloin sits in San Francisco. Peers include 94103, 94109, and 94108. Each peer has its own total. 30,761 lines at $14,256,311 ($14.3M) is the local shape. A peer with similar dollars and half the rows will show a higher mean; that contrast is the point of keeping keys separate.

Do not build a San Francisco FEC total by addition unless you list every ZIP you included. California state-office filings still sit outside every one of those keys. Unitemized federal gifts sit outside them too. This packet does not publish a unique-donor count for 94102, so a San Francisco donor census is also out of reach from these facts.

Citation template: contributor ZIP 94102, $14,256,311, 30,761 itemized contributions, FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. Add that the mean is about $463 only if you also say it is dollars divided by lines. Then send the reader to the ZIP 94102 FEC page for names and to the donor directory for person-level itemizations.

Keep the unit of analysis explicit. 94102 is a five-digit contributor ZIP on FEC itemizations covering Civic Center / Tenderloin. $14,256,311 is the itemized-dollar total. 30,761 is the itemized-line total. $14.3M is $14,256,311 rounded. About $463 is those dollars divided by those lines. San Francisco is map context. 94103, 94109, and 94108 are other keys. California state-office activity is out of scope. Unitemized federal gifts are out of scope. This packet does not publish a unique-donor count, so do not cite one. Open the ZIP 94102 FEC page for the live index, the all-ZIP directory for peers, and the donor directory for names on itemized receipts. If those tools and this snapshot disagree, FEC.gov controls. Cite the ZIP, the dollars, and the line count together.

LobbyVault publishes this 94102 guide so the hub at /zip-codes/94102/ is not a table without sentences. The canonical path /guides/zip-94102-political-donations/ is the standalone URL. Both pages should show the same two facts: $14,256,311 and 30,761 contributions. Neither page invents a unique-donor count. Neither page converts $14.3M into a forecast. Readers who want the row list should use the hub. Readers who want the explanation should stay on the guide. The ZIP remains the five-digit contributor field on FEC itemizations, indexed on LobbyVault from FEC.gov bulk data. A complete citation names ZIP 94102, $14,256,311, 30,761 lines, and FEC.gov as the source of the underlying receipts.
