  • The mean line is about $416; the packet has no median or unique-donor count.

The $15,027,559 downtown Seattle total

FEC.gov itemizations tagged 98104 add to $15,027,559. The matching line count is 36,111. Dividing dollars by lines yields about $416 per itemization. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts. It is not a median, not a typical downtown Seattle household gift, and not evidence that one committee dominates the ZIP. Downtown Seattle ZIPs often mix office, hotel, and committee mail with residential itemizations.

Thirty-six thousand one hundred eleven rows sits in the middle of the $15 million ZIP band: neither the thinnest file nor the longest. A list of 36,111 rows can still mix large transfers with small itemized gifts. Volume does not prove small-dollar giving, and a mean near $416 does not prove a single payer. This aggregate does not name the mix of individuals and committee traffic that share the same five digits.

No party share is attached to $15,027,559. Keep 98104 as a geographic key on the contributor record. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a Pioneer Square and the International District political score. Readers who want named payees should open the live hub rather than infer a story from the mean.

Pioneer Square mail versus household giving

98104 covers downtown Seattle, including Pioneer Square and International District mail. A contributor who lists a downtown Seattle address, or a committee that files 98104, adds to $15,027,559 when that ZIP is on the itemization. The accurate description is tagged federal receipts, not “what downtown Seattle residents gave.”

The packet has no unique-donor count. Treat 36,111 as a line count. Repeat gifts add rows. Memo entries add rows. This guide does not convert lines into people. Washington state filings never enter the federal ZIP total.

What the Seattle ZIP omits

Unitemized federal gifts are out. Washington Public Disclosure Commission filings are out. Independent expenditures paid from another ZIP are out. Cite $15,027,559 only as itemized federal receipts tagged 98104.

Amendments can still move a Pioneer Square and the International District ZIP. Recheck the ZIP 98104 FEC page after a restatement. An older clip with a different total is not a contradiction until extract dates match. Do not add 98104 to 98101 and call the sum a downtown metro total.

98104 next to other downtown Seattle codes

The all-ZIP directory uses the same FEC series. Other Seattle codes may show more lines or a higher dollar total. Those contrasts describe filing shape, not which neighborhood is more partisan. FEC.gov does not score Pioneer Square and the International District.

Do not add 98104 to 98101 or 98121 and call the sum a metro total. Each code is a separate contributor-ZIP roll-up. This page’s facts are $15,027,559 and 36,111 contributions.

How to cite 98104 without stacking downtown codes
