Key figures

  • ZIP 15238 FEC itemizations total $21,735,819 across 28,490 contributions.

Fewer lines, still $21,735,819

$21,735,819 on 28,490 itemizations is a thicker mean than a ZIP that reaches similar dollars with twice as many rows. Dividing the two packet facts yields about $763 per line. That average is filing shape. It does not prove a typical gift size for every payer, and it does not name the committees on the large rows.

Twenty-eight thousand four hundred ninety is still a large line count. It is not small enough to treat as a handful of mega-checks, and it is not a unique-donor census. Repeat itemizations can lengthen 28,490 without adding people. This packet has no donor headcount.

Cite $21,735,819 and 28,490 together. A mean near $763 often hides a mix: many modest itemizations plus a smaller set of large lines that lift the average. The packet does not publish a median or size bands.
