DCCC — 2018 cycle receipts

DCCC receipts for cycle 2018

A pac-cycle page exists because two FEC dimensions meet. One side is DCCC (C00000935), stored as a qualified party committee (FEC type Y). The other is election cycle 2018. $296,422,427.59 is the receipt total on that intersection from cycle-details topCommittees. It is not the 2018 national cycle sum across every committee, and it is not DCCC's receipts in any other even-year window. RNC 2018 is a type Y counterpart packet. DCCC 2020 and DCCC 2022 are later overlays on C00000935 with different pairs.

LobbyVault does not treat this URL as a donor-detail page. No contributor names appear in the packet. The packet flags isSuperPac 0; do not relabel this cell as a Super PAC page. Source: FEC.gov committee receipts by election cycle. Campaign contributions are not USAspending obligations; this join does not claim that $296,422,427.59 funded federal awards.

Type Y House-party committee in 2018

Committee C00000935 files as DCCC. Type Y is a qualified party committee (FEC type Y). The packet flags isSuperPac 0; do not relabel this cell as a Super PAC page. The committee hub at /committees/C00000935/ mixes every cycle this committee appears in; this tie isolates 2018 only. Adding other-cycle receipts from that hub into $296,422,427.59 would break the join. 2018 is the earliest DCCC overlay in this slice. Near-even columns distinguish it from 2020 (receipts ahead) and 2022 (disbursements ahead).

All committees at /committees/ still lists every other filer. Those rows are not this cell. Keep C00000935 on the citation so a similar public name cannot swallow this 2018 total.

2018 cycle hub versus this DCCC row

Federal election cycles on FEC.gov are two-year windows tagged by the even year of the election. 2018 is that tag, not a single calendar year of January-only activity. The cycle hub at /election-cycles/2018/ lists many committees; DCCC is one row in that ranking extract. $296,422,427.59 belongs only to this committee in that window. 2018 is a midterm cycle tag. The cycle hub still lists the RNC and other party committees as other rows.

All FEC ties at /ties/ collect other committee × cycle pairs and other LobbyVault joins. Opening a sibling tie does not change $296,422,427.59 on this URL. Correlation is not causation: a large 2018 receipt total does not prove why money moved or who sent it.

2018 receipts and disbursements nearly even

Receipts $296,422,427.59 and disbursements $297,489,175.42 are separate FEC columns. Receipts $296,422,427.59 and disbursements $297,489,175.42 sit within about one percent of each other. Neither figure is an independent-expenditure-only total unless the packet’s Super PAC flag says so. This extract does not split operating expenditures, transfers, refunds, or cash-on-hand. Disbursements exceed receipts by a thin margin. Quote both 2018 figures; do not call the row a tie.

Mean dollars per donor cannot be computed: the packet has no contribution count and no unique-donor count. Unitemized receipts, if any, are not separated here. Quote $296,422,427.59 and $297,489,175.42 as committee-side cycle totals from FEC.gov.

2018 DCCC versus later DCCC overlays

This join does not name donors, unique contributors, or employers. It does not convert campaign receipts into USAspending obligations. FEC reports and federal award tables are different datasets even when a famous name overlaps. No donor names. No district map. No USAspending awards.

Independent expenditures by other committees that mention the same public figure are other tables. Party transfers, if they exist, are not itemized here. Keep the citation to DCCC, C00000935, cycle 2018, receipts $296,422,427.59, disbursements $297,489,175.42, source FEC.gov.
