ZIP 94707: $37.2 million across 125,858 FEC lines

A long East Bay line list

$37,213,733 divided by 125,858 is about $296 per itemized line. Among East Bay ZIPs, 94707 is a volume code: more lines than many downtown office ZIPs, a lower mean. That does not prove every line is small. Large committee itemizations can still sit inside $37,213,733. They are diluted in the average by 125,858 lines.

One hundred twenty-five thousand eight hundred fifty-eight contributions is an itemization count, not a unique-person count. Repeat givers and household pairs can lengthen the list. This packet has no donor headcount. Cite 125,858 as a contribution-line total, not a census of Kensington or Berkeley.

No party split is published on $37,213,733. Hills geography is orientation. It is not an FEC finding about East Bay ideology. The Commission stores a ZIP string.

94707 is not a Berkeley city total

Kensington sits in Contra Costa County; parts of the code touch Berkeley in Alameda County. Adding 94707 to other Berkeley codes is a recode. FEC.gov did not publish a combined city figure on this table. A committee that lists a 94707 address adds only to this total when that ZIP is filed.

Household rows and committee rows share the 125,858-line count. Open the ZIP 94707 FEC page for named receipts rather than inferring the mix from the $296 mean.

What $37,213,733 omits

Unitemized federal gifts are omitted. California state-office campaigns are omitted. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are omitted even if they mention a Bay Area race. Cite $37,213,733 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 94707, sourced from FEC.gov.

A long line list can absorb small amendments. A restated joint-fundraising block can still move the headline. Recheck the live ZIP 94707 FEC page after large filings. This prose is a snapshot of FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

94707 in the ZIP ranking

The all-ZIP directory ranks dollars. 94707’s rank on dollars will not match its rank on line count. Compare 125,858 receipts against a thinner East Bay ZIP’s shorter list as filing shape. FEC.gov publishes both shapes. It does not crown a more engaged hillside.

Kensington is a place name. ZIP 94707 is a five-digit FEC field. $37,213,733 across 125,858 lines is the indexed pair. Employer, occupation, and recipient tables sit elsewhere.

Source tables for 94707

The ZIP 94707 FEC page holds $37,213,733 and 125,858 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.

Because 125,858 and $37,213,733 are large enough to quote in isolation, they get quoted in isolation. A dollar total without a line count hides that 94707 is a volume ZIP. A line count without $37,213,733 hides scale. Quote the pair, then the source: FEC.gov itemized receipts indexed on LobbyVault. Skip stacking neighboring Berkeley ZIPs into a city total unless you document the recode.

Kensington 94707 is not a Berkeley city rollup

94707 touches Kensington in Contra Costa County and the north Berkeley hills in Alameda County. That municipal split is orientation. The FEC field is still five digits. $37,213,733 across 125,858 lines is this code only. Adding it to other Berkeley ZIPs is a recode. FEC.gov did not publish a combined city figure on this table.

The $296 mean on 125,858 lines is a volume shape. Quote the line count with the dollars. A 125,858-line ZIP can absorb small amendments and still hide a large transfer in the mean. Sort the ZIP 94707 FEC page by amount. This packet has no unique-donor count. Cite 125,858 as receipts, not as people on the hill.

California FPPC filings sit outside $37,213,733. Rank neighboring East Bay codes on the all-ZIP index using both dollars and line count. Use the donor directory for names. If a later extract disagrees with $37,213,733 or 125,858, the newer FEC.gov file wins. Source: FEC.gov via LobbyVault.
