Evanston, IL political money — 2014 FEC cycle

The 2014 cell on the Evanston city key

The authorized headline is $134,450 from Evanston, IL in 2014. Contribution count 84 is the only volume statistic in the facts. Unique-donor counts are not in this packet and are not estimated. City all-cycle money $57,567,344 is stored so a reader can see that 2014 is one slice (0.23%), not the whole city record.

Evanston is stored as EVANSTON in Illinois. Chicago, Skokie, and Wilmette stay on their own city pages. Same-named cities in other states are other pages. Illinois campaign-finance hubs roll many cities; this file keeps one city string. Do not read $134,450 as evidence that Evanston donors funded a federal program. FEC receipts and USAspending obligations are separate datasets.

City spelling, state IL, and neighbor keys

Display name on this page is Evanston, IL. Stored city field is EVANSTON. State is IL (Illinois). Those three labels must travel together. Dropping the state would collide with same-named cities elsewhere. Dropping the cycle would collide with other Evanston tie pages that use different even years.

The city hub remains the place to scan other cycles. This tie stays on 2014 at $134,450 and 84 lines. Internal links on this file point at the city hub, the 2014 cycle hub, Illinois campaign finance, and the ties index.

2014 as an even-year FEC label

Time on this page is the cycle integer 2014. Geography is Evanston, IL. Money is $134,450. Count is 84. That is the full numeric inventory besides the city lifetime $57,567,344. Dates of individual gifts inside the window are not listed.

A researcher who needs day-level receipts must leave this aggregate and use itemized FEC exports. This JSON will not grow extra dates. Packet facts only.

Limits of the individual-receipt join

Do not add $134,450 to a USAspending state or district total. Do not subtract it from one. The two systems use different reporting entities, different time grains, and different legal definitions of a dollar. LobbyVault city-cycle pages stay on FEC individual receipts. SpendingVault pages stay on federal awards. This file does not mix them.

Where to go after the Evanston × 2014 snapshot

The four internal links in the packet are required reading paths: Evanston, IL (/cities/il-evanston/), 2014 election cycle (/election-cycles/2014/), Illinois campaign finance (/states/IL/), and All FEC ties (/ties/). Each href is used here. No other URLs are added. Cross-site award URLs are intentionally absent because this packet is FEC-only.

Closing the join without extra claims

This join is a lakefront Illinois string against the 2014 midterm FEC tag. Dollars $134,450. Lines 84. City lifetime $57,567,344. Share 0.23%. Remainder $57,432,894. Source FEC.gov. Neighbor city keys stay out. Other cycles stay out of the $134,450 sentence. USAspending stays out. Use All FEC ties to move to the next two-dimension page. Restating without new facts: Evanston, IL in 2014 is $134,450 from 84 itemized individual contributions on FEC.gov. The city string stores $57,567,344 across cycles, so this window is about 0.23% and other windows hold $57,432,894. Arithmetic mean per line is about $1,601. Unique donors, recipient committees, party split, and USAspending dollars are not in the packet. Live overlays at the city hub, the 2014 hub, and All FEC ties outrank this snapshot if they differ. Keep both join sides in any reuse of $134,450: donor city Evanston, IL and FEC cycle 2014, sourced from FEC.gov itemized individual receipts. The 84 contribution lines are volume for this cell only and are not added to counts from other Evanston cycle pages. City lifetime money $57,567,344 already includes the 2014 window; do not add $134,450 to $57,567,344.

Evanston, IL remains one donor-city string on FEC.gov. Cycle 2014 remains one even-year tag. Together they produce $134,450 from 84 itemized individual contributions. The city key still stores $57,567,344 when every stored cycle is included, so 2014 is about 0.23% of that running total and $57,432,894 sits in other windows. Those other windows are not listed here and are not estimated. Mean line size about $1,601 is $134,450 divided by 84, an arithmetic mean rather than a median.

Questions

How much did Evanston donors give in 2014?

Quote $134,450 for Evanston, IL in 2014, produced by 84 itemized contributions. Do not quote $57,567,344 as the 2014 amount. $57,567,344 is the city key across cycles. The join exists because the city table and the cycle table share those receipts.

What share of Evanston FEC money is 2014?

Share language on this page always means $134,450 as a fraction of $57,567,344 (about 0.23%). It never means a fraction of all FEC dollars in 2014. If you need a national cycle share, you need a number this packet does not contain.

Does 2014 include Evanston’s 2008 and 2012 cells?

Exact-string matching applies. EVANSTON in IL is in; other strings are out. Evanston is stored as EVANSTON in Illinois. Chicago, Skokie, and Wilmette stay on their own city pages. That is why a handmade map of “greater Evanston” can disagree with $134,450 without either source being “wrong.”
