How much did ZIP 43221 show in FEC itemized totals?

Receipts listing 43221 total $12,632,532 across 38,439 contributions. Those figures are FEC disclosure aggregates for the five-digit contributor ZIP.

The packet facts stop at $12,632,532 and 38,439 contributions; named payees, dates, and employer strings live on the ZIP 43221 FEC page.

Does 38,439 contributions mean 38,439 people donated?

Upper Arlington’s $12,632,532

$12,632,532 is a sum of disclosed federal contribution lines that carried 43221 in the ZIP field. Federal committees anywhere in the country can receive that money. Ohio Secretary of State campaign filings and Upper Arlington municipal races sit outside this extract. Unitemized gifts never enter the total. Quote $12.6M as ZIP-tagged federal disclosure, not as a census of what every household near Lane Avenue spent.

Thirty-eight thousand four hundred thirty-nine rows is a long file among ZIPs near $13 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 43221. Franklin County geography on the form is not a party split.

No party share, cycle series, or unique-person census is attached to $12,632,532. LobbyVault does not recode the ZIP field into a Columbus-suburb 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.

38,439 lines behind 43221

The extract lists 38,439 contributions for 43221. 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 Upper Arlington filings. A long file at $12.6M is still a ZIP roll-up. Repeat gifts and memo entries still add rows.

Scanning 38,439 rows by eye is slow. Sort the ZIP 43221 FEC page by amount to see whether $12,632,532 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 43221 as a geographic key on the contributor record.
