Key figures

  • ZIP 40202 FEC itemizations total $12,973,841 ($13.0M).
  • 23,468 contributions list 40202 as the contributor ZIP.
  • Downtown Louisville’s 40202 tag is a filing key, not a metro headcount.
  • This packet has no unique-donor count.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault; the Kentucky Registry of Election Finance filings are outside the total.

Downtown Louisville’s $12,973,841 sum

$12,973,841 is a sum of disclosed federal contribution lines that carried 40202 in the ZIP field. Federal committees anywhere in the country can receive that money. the Kentucky Registry of Election Finance filings and local municipal races sit outside this extract. Unitemized gifts never enter the total. Quote $13.0M as ZIP-tagged federal disclosure, not as a census of what every household in downtown Louisville spent.

Twenty-three thousand four hundred sixty-eight rows sits in the middle of $13.0 million ZIP files. A list of this length can still mix large committee transfers with small itemized gifts. This aggregate does not name the mix of individuals and committee traffic that share 40202. Jefferson County geography on the form is not a party split. 40204 and 40207 are other keys.

No party share, cycle series, or unique-person census is attached to $12,973,841. LobbyVault does not recode the ZIP field into a the Fourth Street / Whiskey Row core 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 $13.0M to a party, a cycle, or a unique-person roster.

23,468 contributions without a donor roster

The extract lists 23,468 contributions for 40202. 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 Louisville filings. A mid-length file at $13.0M can still mix large committee transfers with small itemized gifts. Repeat gifts and memo entries still add rows. Dollars divided by lines is about $553; that arithmetic is useful only as a shape note next to ZIPs with similar dollars and different row counts.

A list of 23,468 rows is practical to scan by amount. Downtown offices and committee suites both increment 40202 when that ZIP is typed. If a few committee lines account for a visible share of $12,973,841, the committee column on the hub will show it. If the total is many individual names, that will show too. Keep 40202 as a geographic key on the contributor record, not as a downtown Louisville political score.
