Englewood, CO political money in the 2010 election cycle

How Englewood meets the 2010 election cycle

$260,095 is the overlap of two FEC dimensions: contributor city ENGLEWOOD with state CO, and election cycle 2010. LobbyVault stores that join so a reader can open the Englewood, CO city hub and the 2010 election cycle hub without treating either page as a substitute for this one. The city hub answers how much itemized money this city string has produced across cycles. The cycle hub answers how much itemized money that two-year federal window produced nationally. This page answers only the intersection: Englewood, CO in 2010.

246 is a receipt count for that intersection, not a unique-donor census. A person who gave twice is two lines. A PAC or joint-fundraising address that stored ENGLEWOOD is in the same city field as a household street. Arithmetic mean per line is about $1,057 ($260,095 ÷ 246). That mean is division, not a typical resident and not a median.

2010 is a midterm election cycle. That calendar label does not explain $260,095. This packet does not carry party splits, committee names, or occupation mix for the join. Cite the two packet dollars — $260,095 for the 2010 slice and $65.2 million for the Englewood, CO book — and stop before assigning motive.

The Englewood, CO side of the join

Across cycles in this extract, contributor city ENGLEWOOD in Colorado totals $65.2 million ($65,234,014). $260,095 is 0.4% of that city book. A small share does not mean 2010 was quiet in Englewood; it means later or earlier cycles in the same city string can dwarf a single window. The remaining $64,973,919 in the city book sits in other even-year tags. The live Englewood, CO table is the place to compare other years. This snapshot lists one cycle.

The stored city sits in Arapahoe County, Colorado. Denver and Greenwood Village are separate FEC city keys and are not rolled into ENGLEWOOD. State CO stays on the citation so Englewood is not merged with a same-named place in another state. A repeated city name under another state code is a different FEC key. $65.2 million is the CO key only. Donor city is not recipient city: committees that received these gifts can file from anywhere in the FEC system.

The 2010 cycle side for Colorado filers in Englewood

Federal election cycles are two-year windows on FEC.gov. The 2010 cycle is not a calendar year of January gifts only; it is the Commission's cycle tag on itemized receipts. 246 Englewood, CO lines in that window produced $260,095. National 2010 activity — every city — lives on the 2010 election cycle hub, not here. A midterm label marks the even-year window that includes a congressional midterm, not a finding about turnout in Englewood.

Colorado campaign-finance pages roll up the state, including cities that are not Englewood. Do not add $260,095 to a state total from that hub; the state page already contains this city when the same extract is used. All FEC ties is the directory of other city-cycle and city-industry joins. None of those pages converts $260,095 into spending by Englewood candidates. Unitemized contributions below the FEC itemization threshold are omitted from both $260,095 and the $65.2 million city book.

What $260,095 does not measure

$260,095 is itemized federal individual contributions with contributor city ENGLEWOOD. Unitemized gifts below the itemization threshold sit outside it. State-office campaigns in Colorado file under state law and sit outside it. Independent-expenditure totals are a different FEC table. A candidate who lives in Englewood can raise money from other cities; those gifts are not this join. PAC transfers and committee-to-committee activity are other files.

City labels are filer-entered. A donor who typed ENGLEWOOD is counted; a donor who typed a neighborhood, a firm city, or a nearby suburb is not recoded into Englewood. LobbyVault does not rewrite the city field into a Census place or a residency test. Treat 246 as lines that stored this string in 2010. This packet does not include a citywide row count across all cycles, so a row-share percentage is not computed.

Reading Englewood and 2010 together without mixing tables

Correlation is not causation. $260,095 beside $65.2 million does not mean 2010 caused the city book or that Englewood drove the 2010 cycle. The join is a filter: city string plus cycle tag. Amended reports can move either number. If the live Englewood, CO hub or the live 2010 cycle hub disagrees with this prose, the newer FEC extract controls. This snapshot is not a third disclosure system.

Internal links on this page go to Englewood, CO, the 2010 election cycle, Colorado campaign finance, and All FEC ties. Use those four doors. Do not paste $260,095 into a USAspending award story; FEC receipts and federal obligations are different statutes. This packet has no award dollars, and itemized giving is not a proxy for public opinion in Colorado.

A 0.4% cut of the Englewood stack

0.4% of $65.2 million is a slice, not a ranking. Put another way, $260,095 of the $65,234,014 city stack was tagged 2010, and $64,973,919 was tagged other cycles. Those percentages are $260,095 divided by $65,234,014 and $64,973,919 divided by $65,234,014. They are not shares of Colorado totals, national cycle totals, or eligible voters. Dollar share (0.4%) and row volume (246 itemized gifts) are separate facts.

Do not treat 0.4% as Englewood's share of the 2010 national cycle, which is a different denominator and is not in these facts. Adjacent presidential windows for the same city string are other joins. This URL isolates Englewood × 2010 only: $260,095, 246 receipts, mean about $1,057. Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by donor city and election cycle.

Questions

How much did Englewood, CO donors give in 2010?

Itemized FEC individual contributions listing contributor city ENGLEWOOD and cycle 2010 total $260,095 across 246 receipts in this LobbyVault extract. That is the city-cycle join, not the all-cycle Englewood, CO book of $65.2 million. Unitemized gifts and Colorado state-office filings sit outside both figures.

Is $260,095 all of Englewood's federal political money?

No. $65.2 million ($65,234,014) is the all-cycle itemized book for contributor city ENGLEWOOD in CO. The 2010 slice is $260,095, 0.4% of that book. Other cycles hold $64,973,919. 246 is a 2010 receipt count, not a unique-donor count.

Did Englewood, CO 2010 donations stay in Colorado?

Not necessarily. Donor city is Englewood, CO; recipients can be committees anywhere that file with the FEC. This join does not allocate the $260,095 by office, state of the committee, or party. A CO city code is an address field on the individual receipt, not a map of Colorado races.

How many Englewood, CO contributions were itemized in 2010?

246 itemized contribution records sum to $260,095. That count is rows, not unique donors. The arithmetic mean is about $1,057 per row. Unitemized gifts below the FEC threshold and independent expenditures are not included. Citywide unique-donor counts are not in these facts.
