END CITIZENS UNITED — 2016 cycle receipts

Two FEC dimensions: End Citizens United and 2016

End Citizens United in 2016 is a two-field cell. Receipts $25,577,467.42 sit on one field. Disbursements $25,504,978.90 sit on another. Committee name END CITIZENS UNITED and ID C00573261 identify the filer. Cycle 2016 identifies the window. Missing any of those pieces misquotes the extract.

This is not a restatement of the 2016 election-cycle hub, which includes every top committee in that window. It is not a restatement of the END CITIZENS UNITED committee hub, which includes other cycles. Only the overlap is this page.

Receipts $25,577,467.42 exceed disbursements $25,504,978.90 by $72,488.52. Cash on hand is stored as $72,488.52, a third field, not receipts minus disbursements. Individual contributions are stored as $25,454,108.81. Committee designation is U (unauthorized committee (designation U)). Treat later amendments on FEC.gov as controlling if they disagree with this snapshot. Type Q plus unauthorized designation U is a PAC class, not an independent-expenditure-only Super PAC class. Do not recode C00573261 as type O on this row.

The committee side of the End Citizens United join

END CITIZENS UNITED (C00573261) is the only committee in this cell. All committees is the index of other IDs. Do not roll those IDs into $25,577,467.42. Do not treat End Citizens United as a nickname that swallows similarly named Super PACs or joint-fundraising vehicles.

This page is a committee page joined to a cycle, not a donor-detail page. Contributor names are unpublished here even when they exist on Schedule A.

What the 2016 hub still holds

Election-night stories use different grains: precincts, called races, Electoral College. This page uses FEC cycle receipts. $25,577,467.42 is not a vote total and not a mandate index.

Keep 2016 on the same line as END CITIZENS UNITED whenever $25,577,467.42 is quoted. Cycle-only citations belong on the cycle hub.

Do not treat $25,577,467.42 as cash on hand

If receipts exceed disbursements, do not call $72,488.52 unspent campaign cash as if it were Form 3 line 10. If disbursements exceed receipts, do not call the gap insolvency. Receipts $25,577,467.42 exceed disbursements $25,504,978.90 by $72,488.52.

The only authorized comparison is $25,577,467.42 versus $25,504,978.90 inside END CITIZENS UNITED × 2016.
