DSCC receipts from Brooklyn, NY

Reading $395,030 as a two-column match

LobbyVault keeps a Brooklyn, NY city page and a DSCC committee page. Neither page is this join. The join is $395,030 in itemized individual contributions where city equals BROOKLYN and committee equals C00042366. Against the all-committee city total of $223,850,174, that is 0.18%. Other committees under the same city label hold $223,455,144.

Do not treat 0.18% as Brooklyn's share of DSCC's nationwide receipts. The committee's all-city total is not in these facts. Do not treat $395,030 as a count of unique residents. The packet does not publish a unique-donor count or a receipt count for this city-committee pair.

City labels are filer-entered. Brooklyn is stored as BROOKLYN in New York; New York, NY and other borough strings are not recoded into BROOKLYN. DSCC is stored on C00042366. Other Democratic Senate vehicles are other committee IDs. Dollar figures are itemized individual contribution aggregates from FEC.gov, not federal awards and not state-office filings. This page is a city × committee join, not a donor roster.

Brooklyn, NY without a committee filter

On the city side, Brooklyn, NY indexes $223,850,174 of itemized individual dollars across committees. This packet does not publish a citywide receipt count, so a row-share percentage is not computed. Dollar share is available: 0.18% of $223,850,174 is the DSCC slice ($395,030), and 99.82% is not.

Brooklyn is stored as BROOKLYN in New York; New York, NY and other borough strings are not recoded into BROOKLYN. Keep state NY on the name. Brooklyn strings exist in more than one state in FEC files. $223,850,174 is not a New York total. Open the New York campaign-finance hub for the state mix; open this page for Brooklyn to DSCC only.

DSCC as a stored FEC name

The stored committee string is DSCC. Display wording DSCC is for readers. Aggregates follow the ID C00042366. DSCC is stored on C00042366. Other Democratic Senate vehicles are other committee IDs. A filer can list Brooklyn and never appear in $395,030 if the recipient was a different committee.

This packet does not publish the committee's all-occupation total, all-city total, or cycle split. Those cuts, if they exist, live on the live DSCC page. Keep both nouns when quoting $395,030: Brooklyn, NY and DSCC.

Packet slug ny-brooklyn-to-dscc is the LobbyVault filename for this Brooklyn × DSCC join. Canonical path is /ties/ny-brooklyn-to-dscc/. Overlay the city hub and the committee hub; do not treat either hub as $395,030.

0.18% of Brooklyn, NY itemized dollars

Compared with the rest of Brooklyn, DSCC is 0.18% of itemized individual dollars ($395,030 of $223,850,174). The rest is $223,455,144. Quote dollars as dollars. Mixing in an invented headcount produces a fake density statistic this packet does not support.

Do not rank Brooklyn as a winner or loser for DSCC. This join has one city and one committee. Neighboring city-committee pages are other keys. New York campaign finance still mixes geographies.

Recompute the share from the raw integers: 395,030 divided by 223,850,174 is 0.18%. The complement 223,455,144 is $223,455,144, which is 99.82% of the BROOKLYN city book. Those identities do not invent a receipt count.

What $395,030 leaves out

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $395,030. New York state-office filings sit outside it. Independent expenditures are a different FEC file. City labels are filer-entered; LobbyVault does not recode BROOKLYN into a Census place. PAC or joint-fundraising addresses that stored this pair follow the same two-field rule as household streets.

Do not read $395,030 as proof that DSCC ran Brooklyn politics. The join is two fields. Correlation is not causation. If the live hubs disagree with $395,030, the newer FEC extract controls.

New York campaign-finance coverage still includes every other NY city. This tie does not. Researchers who need a state mix should leave this URL and open the New York hub. Researchers who need Brooklyn to DSCC should stay here.

Internal links for the Brooklyn × DSCC join

The four hrefs in the packet are the only URLs used here: the Brooklyn, NY city page, the DSCC committee page, New York campaign finance, and all FEC ties. No other path is invented. Canonical path for this join is /ties/ny-brooklyn-to-dscc/.

Quote $395,030, $223,850,174, 0.18%, C00042366, and stored city BROOKLYN. That set is complete relative to the packet. Extra dollars or extra people would be inventions.

Questions

What is the Brooklyn, NY × DSCC join?

It is $395,030 in itemized individual contributions matching donor city BROOKLYN (NY) and recipient DSCC (C00042366). The city hub without that committee filter is $223,850,174. This page is the intersection, not a restatement of either hub and not a named-donor list. Source: FEC.gov.

Why does this page omit a donor count?

Because the packet did not include one. Unique-person counts and receipt counts are unpublished for this city-committee pair. Inventing a headcount would violate the facts-only rule. Quote $395,030 and $223,850,174 without a fake number of people. FEC bulk files remain the source for line-level rows.

Is BROOKLYN merged with nearby New York cities?

No. Brooklyn is stored as BROOKLYN in New York; New York, NY and other borough strings are not recoded into BROOKLYN. $395,030 and $223,850,174 follow the exact stored city string plus state NY. Nearby spellings are other pages. LobbyVault does not recode contributor city into a metro. Keep NY on the name so same-named cities in other states do not collide.

Does $395,030 fund USAspending awards coded to Brooklyn?

No. Campaign receipts and federal awards are different statutes. This packet has only FEC individual contribution aggregates. $395,030 has no obligation dollars beside it. Do not add the join to federal spending in Brooklyn or New York. Cite FEC.gov for the contribution file.
