2018 FEC cycle — New York office-state receipts

State cell: $126.0 million from 120 New York candidates in 2018. National cell: $2.7 billion from 2418 U.S. candidates in 2018. Cite both labels. Strip the state filter and $126,019,073.37 is misread as national. Strip the cycle filter and it is misread as all-years New York. FEC.gov is the source.

Key figures

  • Headline join: $126.0 million in New York candidate receipts for 2018.
  • National bound: $2.7 billion in 2018 U.S. candidate receipts.
  • Candidate files: 120 in New York, 2418 nationwide.
  • 2018 is a midterm FEC window; that tag dates the money, it does not explain it.
  • Use the four packet links: 2018 cycle, New York finance, all cycles, all FEC ties.

Both filters: 2018 and New York (NY)

New York candidates in 2018 reported $126,019,073.37. U.S. candidates in 2018 reported $2,698,163,707.14. Subtract and other office states hold $2,572,144,633.77. Divide and New York is 4.7% of the cycle. Count and the files are 120 versus 2418. That is the entire numeric claim set.

The page exists because two tables meet. The cycle table answers how large 2018 was nationally. The state table answers how New York looks across years. This tie answers only how New York looked inside 2018. 120 is a relatively large candidate file for this office state. Mean about $1.05 million per New York candidate uses $126,019,073.37 and 120 only.

The 2018 cycle is a closed even-year window in this extract; $126,019,073.37 is the stored New York office-state total for that window. New York (NY) is the FEC office-state code. New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania office states stay separate. Do not add $126,019,073.37 to USAspending obligations for New York. Campaign receipts and federal awards are different datasets.

120 candidates seeking New York federal offices

What the New York side includes: candidate receipts tagged office state NY and cycle 2018, summing to $126,019,073.37 across 120 candidates. What it excludes: other cycles for New York, other office states for 2018, independent expenditures, and unitemized or non-candidate tables not in this aggregate.

Mean about $1.05 million should be quoted with both inputs. Dropping 120 turns the mean into an unsourced claim. New York (NY) is the FEC office-state code. New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania office states stay separate. State-office campaign finance under New York law is a different disclosure system.

How 2018 national totals bound the New York figure

2018 national receipts of $2,698,163,707.14 are the ceiling this New York figure sits under. $126,019,073.37 cannot exceed $2,698,163,707.14 in a consistent extract; here it is 4.7% of the ceiling. $2.6 billion is the room between the New York cell and the national ceiling.

The cycle hub still answers questions this page refuses: every state's mix, national party mix if published there, and other cycle-level tables. This file stays on New York × 2018. New York (NY) is the FEC office-state code. New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania office states stay separate.

4.7% is a cycle share, not a ranking

Share language that is allowed: New York office-state candidate receipts were 4.7% of U.S. candidate receipts in the 2018 cycle ($126,019,073.37 of $2,698,163,707.14). Share language that is not allowed: New York accounted for 4.7% of federal spending, 4.7% of donors, or 4.7% of votes. Those claims need other tables.

The remainder $2.6 billion is not a list of rival states. It is a single leftover sum. This page does not itemize it.

No invented names, no invented offices

No candidate names appear here because the packet did not list them. No donor names appear here because this is not a donor page. No committee IDs appear here because the packet did not list them. The published objects are the two dollar columns, the two candidate counts, the cycle year, and the office-state code.

New York (NY) is the FEC office-state code. New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania office states stay separate. Researchers who need named candidates should open the live New York campaign-finance hub or the 2018 cycle hub, which are different pages with different grain. This tie stays aggregated.

Keep the two dollar columns labeled

Label every dollar figure when you reuse it. $126.0 million = New York candidate receipts in 2018. $2.7 billion = U.S. candidate receipts in 2018. $2.6 billion = other office states in 2018. If a sentence uses one of those figures without the label, rewrite the sentence.

The four internal links exist so readers can leave the join for the matching hub. 2018 election cycle holds the national year. New York campaign finance holds the state mix. All election cycles lists other windows. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. Source: FEC.gov.

A compact worksheet for this pair starts with labels, not with a ranking. Label one: New York 2018 candidate receipts = $126,019,073.37. Label two: U.S. 2018 candidate receipts = $2,698,163,707.14. Label three: other office states in 2018 = $2,572,144,633.77. Label four: New York candidate count = 120. Label five: U.S. candidate count = 2418. Label six: dollar share = 4.7%. Nothing in that worksheet is a donor list. Nothing in it is a federal award. 120 is a relatively large candidate file for this office state. Mean receipts of about $1.05 million in New York use labels one and four only. Mean receipts of about $1.12 million nationwide use labels two and five only. Cross-wiring those labels invents a statistic. New York (NY) is the FEC office-state code. New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania office states stay separate. Cycle 2018 is a midterm window, which dates the worksheet and does not interpret it. Source: FEC.gov candidate receipts grouped by election cycle and office state.

Questions

How does New York in 2018 differ from the New York state hub?
The state hub mixes every cycle stored for office state NY. This tie keeps only 2018, where receipts are $126,019,073.37 from 120 candidates. If you need New York without a year filter, use the state hub. If you need New York in 2018 only, use this page. The two pages share a geography noun and different denominators.
How does this page differ from the 2018 election cycle hub?
The cycle hub mixes every office state. National receipts are $2,698,163,707.14 from 2418 candidates. This page keeps only New York, where receipts are $126,019,073.37 from 120 candidates. The cycle hub is the parent row; this URL is one cell. Do not cite the parent total as the New York cell.
What does a mean of $1.05 million per New York candidate mean?
It is $126,019,073.37 divided by 120. It is not a median, not a typical House budget, and not a unique-person average. A few large statewide committees can pull the mean up. The packet does not publish a median or an office-type split, so this page does not invent one.
Is the 2018 New York total a closed final number?
The 2018 cycle is a closed even-year window in this extract; $126,019,073.37 is the stored New York office-state total for that window. Amended candidate reports can still move $126,019,073.37. If the live New York hub or the live 2018 hub disagrees with this snapshot, use the newer FEC extract. This JSON file does not replace FEC.gov and is not a third disclosure system.
