How much did ZIP 11231 show in FEC itemized totals?

Receipts listing 11231 total $12,345,672 across 52,280 contributions. Those figures are FEC disclosure aggregates for the five-digit contributor ZIP. They are not a unique-donor census of Carroll Gardens and not New York State Board of Elections campaign totals. The packet facts stop at $12,345,672 and 52,280 contributions; named payees, dates, and employer strings live on the ZIP 11231 FEC page.

Does 52,280 contributions mean 52,280 people donated?

No. The figure counts itemized receipts. One person can appear many times. This packet does not include a distinct-donor total, so this page does not invent one. See names on the ZIP 11231 FEC page. Repeat gifts and memo entries add rows without adding new people. Open the ZIP 11231 FEC page for names behind the 52,280 lines.

Does ZIP 11231 include New York state races?

No. This extract is federal FEC itemizations. New York State Board of Elections filings sit outside $12,345,672. Unitemized federal gifts are also out. Use the ZIP 11231 FEC page for the federal table. The packet facts stop at $12,345,672 and the contribution count. Named payees, dates, and employer strings live on the ZIP 11231 FEC page, not in this summary.

Key figures

ZIP 11231 FEC itemizations total $12,345,672 ($12.3M).
52,280 contributions list 11231 — a high-volume receipt file at this dollar scale.

This packet has no unique-donor count.

Carroll Gardens / Red Hook’s $12,345,672

$12,345,672 is a sum of disclosed federal contribution lines that carried 11231 in the ZIP field. Federal committees anywhere in the country can receive that money. New York State Board of Elections filings and New York City municipal races sit outside this extract. Unitemized gifts never enter the total. Quote $12.3M as ZIP-tagged federal disclosure, not as a census of what every household on Court Street spent.

Fifty-two thousand two hundred eighty rows is a high-volume file among ZIPs near $12 million. A long list can still hide large committee transfers. Volume does not prove small-dollar giving. This aggregate does not name the mix of individuals and committee traffic that share 11231. Kings County geography on the form is not a party split.

No party share, cycle series, or unique-person census is attached to $12,345,672. LobbyVault does not recode the ZIP field into a Brooklyn political score. Readers who want named payees, dates, or employer strings should open the live hub. The supported facts are the dollar total, the contribution count, FEC as source, and the five-digit ZIP definition.

52,280 lines, no unique-donor figure

The extract lists 52,280 contributions for 11231. That is a receipt count, not a unique-person census. This packet does not include a distinct-donor total, so this guide does not invent how many people sit behind 11231 filings. A file this long at $12.3M is a high-volume ZIP: many itemized rows, not a handful of oversized transfers. Repeat gifts and memo entries still add rows.

Scanning 52,280 rows by eye is impractical. Sort the ZIP 11231 FEC page by amount to see whether $12,345,672 is spread across many names or concentrated in a few payees. This page will not publish an average as if the FEC printed one. Keep 11231 as a geographic key on the contributor record.
