New York candidate fundraising — 2014 cycle

How the 2014 cycle joins New York office state

New York office-state candidates reported $78,219,307 in FEC.gov receipts for the 2014 election cycle. That figure is New York candidate-committee receipts for federal office in office state NY during the 2014 cycle, as grouped on FEC.gov. The matching national book is $1,664,069,870 ($1.66 billion) across 1,671 candidates. New York is 4.7% of those cycle dollars and 4.1% of the cycle candidate roster. This page exists because the two dimensions meet. It is not a restatement of the 2014 cycle hub alone and not a restatement of the New York state hub across every cycle.

The 2014 join is a two-key filter: cycle year plus office state NY, not a donor-residence map of New York ZIP codes. Sixty-eight New York office-state candidates produced that cell, a denser dollar stack than a raw headcount of 68 against 1,671 cycle candidates would suggest. Candidate receipts here are committee-side totals for the office-state filter. They are not independent expenditures, not a Schedule A donor directory, and not USAspending award dollars. The cycle hub lives at /election-cycles/2014/; the New York hub lives at /states/NY/. Every cycle is indexed at /election-cycles/, and sibling joins sit at /ties/.

New York’s $78.2 million candidate-receipt cell

New York’s 2014 cell holds $78,219,307 ($78.2 million) from 68 office-state candidates. Dividing receipts by that candidate count gives an arithmetic mean of about $1,150,284 per listed candidate. That mean is a ratio of two FEC columns. It is not a median, not a typical itemized contribution, and not evidence that each campaign raised the same amount. The New York hub at /states/NY/ mixes cycles; this tie freezes 2014 only.

The 2014 national cycle book

The 2014 cycle table on FEC.gov shows $1,664,069,870 in candidate receipts nationwide and 1,671 candidates. After removing New York, $1,585,850,563 and 1,603 candidates remain in other office states. Those remainder figures are arithmetic (cycle minus state). They are not a second FEC file. Opening only this tie would hide that remainder. The 2014 hub at /election-cycles/2014/ keeps the full book; /election-cycles/ lists every cycle; /ties/ lists other two-key joins.

What this New York–2014 join does not count

This join does not count independent expenditures, party coordinated expenditures, or unitemized receipts that never entered the candidate-receipt aggregate. It does not name donors. It does not say FEC receipts funded federal awards on USAspending.gov; those are different datasets even when the geography string matches. Office state NY is the seat sought, not the mailing state of contributors. Correlation between a busy cycle and a large state cell is not causation and not an election-outcome claim. Quote $78,219,307 as New York in 2014, and quote $1,664,069,870 as the 2014 national total — never as each other.

Reading the cycle hub and the New York hub

Read /states/NY/ for New York campaign-finance totals that mix cycles. Read /election-cycles/2014/ for the 2014 cycle across every office state. Read /election-cycles/ for the cycle index and /ties/ for other FEC two-dimension pages. This URL, New York × 2014, is only the overlap: 68 candidates and $78,219,307 in receipts, sourced to FEC.gov candidate receipts grouped by election cycle and office state.

Cite two lines, never one: 2014 New York office-state candidate receipts $78,219,307 from 68 candidates, and 2014 national candidate receipts $1,664,069,870 from 1,671 candidates. The first line is the join cell. The second is the cycle book. FEC.gov is the source for both. Canonical path: /ties/2014-new-york-candidate-receipts/.

Office state NY is the federal seat, not a donor mailing-state roll-up. Independent expenditures and USAspending awards are outside this table. A later FEC bulk file can move New York’s 2014 cell and the 2014 cycle book together; this snapshot stores $78,219,307 and $1,664,069,870 as harvested. Independent expenditures remain outside both columns. Donor names are not in this FEC grouping.

Office state NY is a federal-seat code on candidate filings, not a contributor ZIP roll-up and not a state-office ethics filing. 68 candidates produced $78,219,307 inside 2014. Other office states hold the remaining $1,585,850,563 of the $1.66 billion cycle book. All FEC ties at /ties/ lists sibling cycle-state pages so this overlap is not mistaken for the full New York hub.

Questions

How much did New York federal candidates raise in 2014?

$78,219,307 is FEC.gov candidate receipts for federal office in New York during the 2014 cycle. It is not the $1.66 billion national cycle total and not independent expenditures. Office state is the seat, not donor home address. The 68-candidate roster is the office-state count, not a unique-donor count.

What was the 2014 national FEC candidate-receipt total?

The 2014 cycle book on FEC.gov is $1,664,069,870 across 1,671 candidates nationwide. New York is 68 of those candidates and $78,219,307 of those receipts (4.7% of cycle dollars). Do not substitute the New York cell for the cycle book.

Does this page list New York donors?

No. This page is candidate committee receipts grouped by election cycle 2014 and office state NY. It does not name individual donors, does not sum PAC independent expenditures, and does not treat FEC receipts as USAspending awards. Candidate receipts are committee-side totals for the office-state filter.

Where are the 2014 cycle and New York state hubs?

Use /election-cycles/2014/ for the 2014 national cycle hub and /states/NY/ for New York across cycles. All election cycles live at /election-cycles/. Sibling cycle-state joins live at /ties/. This tie is the overlap, not a reprint of either hub.
