WOMEN VOTE Super PAC — 2018 cycle receipts

WOMEN VOTE isolated to the 2018 midterm

A pac-cycle page exists because two FEC dimensions meet. One side is WOMEN VOTE (C00473918), stored as an independent expenditure-only committee (FEC type O). The other is election cycle 2018. $40,363,527.70 is the receipt total on that intersection. It is not the 2018 national cycle sum across every committee, and it is not WOMEN VOTE's receipts in any other even-year window. WOMEN VOTE 2020 is a later overlay. WOMEN VOTE! 2018 is the cycle-details -2 slug that stores the bang spelling. This file uses WOMEN VOTE without the bang.

LobbyVault does not treat this URL as a donor-detail page. No contributor names appear in the packet. The packet flags isSuperPac 1, so Super PAC is the correct label on this join. Source: FEC.gov. Campaign contributions are not USAspending obligations; this join does not claim that $40,363,527.70 funded federal awards. Committee designation is stored as U (unauthorized (designation U)). Cash on hand in the packet is $222,240.34. Individual contributions stored for this cell are $15,218,386.30.

C00473918 as type O, isSuperPac 1

Committee C00473918 files as WOMEN VOTE. Type O is an independent expenditure-only committee (FEC type O). The packet flags isSuperPac 1, so Super PAC is the correct label on this join. The committee hub at /committees/C00473918/ mixes every cycle this committee appears in; this tie isolates 2018 only. Adding other-cycle receipts from that hub into $40,363,527.70 would break the join. Individual contributions $15,218,386.30 against receipts $40,363,527.70 — a smaller individual share than the 2020 overlay on the same ID.

All committees at /committees/ still lists every other filer. Those rows are not this cell. Keep C00473918 on the citation so a similar public name cannot swallow this 2018 total.

2018 cycle hub versus this Super PAC

Federal election cycles on FEC.gov are two-year windows tagged by the even year of the election. 2018 is that tag, not a single calendar year of January-only activity. The cycle hub at /election-cycles/2018/ lists many committees; WOMEN VOTE is one row in that ranking extract. $40,363,527.70 belongs only to this committee in that window. 2018 is a midterm even-year tag. The cycle hub still lists other Super PACs as other rows.

All FEC ties at /ties/ collect other committee × cycle pairs and other LobbyVault joins. Opening a sibling tie does not change $40,363,527.70 on this URL. Correlation is not causation: a large 2018 receipt total does not prove why money moved or who sent it.

Near-even 2018 receipts and disbursements

Receipts $40,363,527.70 and disbursements $40,272,542.58 are separate FEC columns. Receipts $40,363,527.70 and disbursements $40,272,542.58 sit within about one percent of each other. Neither figure is an independent-expenditure-only total unless the packet’s Super PAC flag says so. This extract does not split operating expenditures, transfers, or refunds. Receipts and disbursements sit close. Cash on hand is stored as $222,240.34.

2018 WOMEN VOTE is not 2020 and not WOMEN VOTE!

This join does not name donors, unique contributors, or employers. It does not convert campaign receipts into USAspending obligations. FEC reports and federal award tables are different datasets even when a famous name overlaps. No donor names. No demographic census. No USAspending awards.

Independent expenditures by other committees that mention the same public figure are other tables. Party transfers, if they exist, are not itemized here. Keep the citation to WOMEN VOTE, C00473918, cycle 2018, receipts $40,363,527.70, disbursements $40,272,542.58, source FEC.gov.

Restating the join without new numbers: WOMEN VOTE in 2018 is $40,363,527.70 receipts and $40,272,542.58 disbursements on FEC.gov. Type O; isSuperPac 1. Not a donor page. Not a lifetime committee total. Not a national cycle total. Not a USAspending award sum. Type O, isSuperPac 1, C00473918 × 2018; spelling WOMEN VOTE. The bang spelling lives on the -2 slug; 2020 is another year.
