How much did ZIP 21201 show in FEC itemized totals?

Receipts listing 21201 total $13,943,143 across 14,207 contributions. Those figures are FEC disclosure aggregates for the five-digit contributor ZIP. They are not a unique-donor census of downtown Baltimore and not the Maryland State Board of Elections campaign totals.

Does 14,207 contributions mean 14,207 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 21201 FEC page. Repeat gifts and memo entries add rows without adding new people.

Does ZIP 21201 include Maryland state races?

No. This extract is federal FEC itemizations. Maryland State Board of Elections filings sit outside $13,943,143. Unitemized federal gifts are also out. Use the ZIP 21201 FEC page for the federal table. The packet facts stop at $13,943,143 and the contribution count. Named payees, dates, and employer strings live on the ZIP 21201 FEC page, not in this summary.

Where can I see 21201 itemizations?

On the ZIP 21201 FEC page. Compare codes on the all-ZIP index and search names in the donor directory. Original filings are on FEC.gov. This guide quotes only the harvested packet facts: $13,943,143, 14,207 contributions, and the five-digit contributor ZIP.

Unique Donors

Itemized federal contributions that list ZIP 21201 add up to $13.9M across 14,207 contributions. The five-digit code is the contributor ZIP on FEC.gov receipts, not a Maryland State Board of Elections local file. Fourteen thousand lines at this dollar scale is a short-to-mid receipt file: large lines on the hub deserve an early look. Numbers come from FEC.gov records indexed on LobbyVault.

Key figures

14,207 contributions list 21201 — a relatively short receipt file at this dollar scale.

This packet has no unique-donor count.

Downtown Baltimore’s $13,943,143 file

$13,943,143 is a sum of disclosed federal contribution lines that carried 21201 in the ZIP field. Federal committees anywhere in the country can receive that money. The Maryland State Board of Elections filings and local municipal races generally sit outside this extract. Unitemized gifts never enter the total. Quote $13.9M as ZIP-tagged federal disclosure, not as a census of what every household in downtown Baltimore spent.

Fourteen thousand two hundred seven rows is on the thin side among ZIPs near $14 million. Thinner files often make large committee lines easier to spot when sorted by amount. This page will not treat a short list as proof that one payer dominates. This aggregate does not name the mix of individuals and committee traffic that share 21201.

No party share, cycle series, or unique-person census is attached to $13,943,143. LobbyVault does not recode the ZIP field into the Inner Harbor district political score. Readers who want named payees, dates, or employer strings should open the live hub rather than infer a story from the line count alone. The supported facts in this packet are the dollar total, the contribution count, FEC as source, and the five-digit ZIP definition. Nothing in the packet assigns $13.9M to a party, a cycle, or a unique-person roster.

14,207 rows on a short 21201 file

The extract lists 14,207 contributions for 21201. 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 downtown Baltimore filings. A file this short at $13.9M usually makes large committee lines easier to spot when the hub is sorted by amount. Repeat gifts and memo entries still add rows, even when the list is thin.

Do not treat 14,207 as a headcount of the Inner Harbor district residents. One filer can appear many times. This page will not publish an average as if the FEC printed one. If a handful of committee lines account for a visible share of $13,943,143, the committee column on the hub will show it. If the total is many individual names on a short list, that will show too.
