OHIO DEMOCRATIC PARTY - FEDERAL — 2008 cycle receipts

OHIO DEMOCRATIC PARTY - FEDERAL locked to cycle 2008

LobbyVault stores OHIO DEMOCRATIC PARTY - FEDERAL as committee C00016899 and stores 2008 as an election-cycle hub. The canonical path for this prose is the /ties/ URL for the pair. Overlay traffic still belongs on /committees/C00016899/ for the committee table. /election-cycles/2008/ remains the cycle table.

$25,946,127.12 is the headline receipt number. $25,954,799.57 is the headline disbursement number. Type Y and isSuperPac = 0 are classification flags, not dollar fields. 2008 type Y party committee with receipts and disbursements within a few thousand dollars.

A searcher asking for Ohio Democratic Party - Federal in 2008 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. The hyphenated FEDERAL suffix is the stored FEC name. State-account filings outside the federal committee ID are not this $25,946,127.12 cell.

What the 2008 ledger is not

A zero 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. Disbursements $25,954,799.57 exceed receipts $25,946,127.12 by $8,672.45. Cash on hand is stored as $111,046.03, a third field, not receipts minus disbursements. Individual contributions are stored as $4,170,812.88. Committee designation is U (unauthorized committee (designation U)).

Refunds, transfers, and operating expenditures can all sit inside disbursements. This packet does not split $25,954,799.57 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 beyond any individual-contribution field it stores.

State-office committees file under state law and are outside $25,946,127.12. Municipal filings are outside $25,946,127.12. FEC.gov federal reports only.
