DSCC — 2016 cycle receipts

The committee-cycle overlap for C00042366

LobbyVault stores DSCC as committee C00042366 and stores 2016 as an election-cycle hub. The canonical path for this prose is the /ties/ URL for the pair. Overlay traffic still belongs on /committees/C00042366/ for the committee table. /election-cycles/2016/ remains the cycle table.

$179,800,228.74 is the headline receipt number. $177,414,910.87 is the headline disbursement number. Type Y and isSuperPac = 0 are classification flags, not dollar fields. 2016 presidential-year Senate party committee under the short label DSCC.

A searcher asking for DSCC in 2016 needs both nouns in the citation. Dropping the cycle turns the figure into an all-years claim this packet does not support. Dropping the committee turns it into a cycle-wide claim this packet does not support.

What type Y means on this row

isSuperPac = 0 is a packet flag, not a donor count. Type Y is qualified party committee (FEC type Y). Together they tell a reader how to label DSCC in 2016 without borrowing a label from another year.

C00042366 appears on the committee overlay /committees/C00042366/. That overlay is the committee dimension. This ties page adds the 2016 dimension and stops there.

Why 2016 is a presidential-year FEC two-year window

Presidential-year versus midterm is a calendar description of 2016, not a finding about DSCC’s purpose. 2016 is a presidential-year FEC two-year window. The dollars remain $179,800,228.74 and $177,414,910.87.

Do not convert $179,800,228.74 into a per-day burn rate. This packet has no day count. Do not convert it into a share of all 2016 receipts; no cycle-wide denominator is in the facts.

What the 2016 ledger is not

A zero disbursement field, a matching pair, or a gap each has a reading: it is what the extract stored. It is not proof of a bank balance. Receipts exceed disbursements by $2,385,317.87 in this extract ($179,800,228.74 in, $177,414,910.87 out). That gap is arithmetic on two cycle totals, not FEC cash on hand and not a prediction of leftover funds.

Refunds, transfers, and operating expenditures can all sit inside disbursements. This packet does not split $177,414,910.87 into those buckets.

No donors, no USAspending, no motives

Unitemized receipts below itemization thresholds, if any, may sit inside a cycle total without appearing as named Schedule A rows. This packet still does not name donors. It also does not split itemized from unitemized.

State-office committees file under state law and are outside $179,800,228.74. Municipal filings are outside $179,800,228.74. FEC.gov federal reports only.
