How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 48304?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 48304 total $34,775,254 across 43,566 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count. Unitemized gifts sit outside $34,775,254. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 48304?

LobbyVault counts 43,566 itemized contributions for ZIP 48304. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. The matching dollar total is $34,775,254, a mean near $798.

Does ZIP 48304 on FEC reports mean only local residents?

No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the itemization as filed. LobbyVault does not recode 48304 into a residential-only book. Open named receipts on the ZIP hub to see which committees appear. The 43,566-line count follows the same rule as the $34,775,254 sum.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 48304 totals?

From FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $34,775,254 and 43,566 lines. Non-federal campaigns and unitemized federal gifts are outside both numbers. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls. The $798 mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts.

Mid-volume filing shape on ZIP 48304

Forty-three thousand five hundred sixty-six itemizations against $34,775,254 yields about $798 per line. That sits between high-volume ZIPs with ~$400 means and short lists with multi-thousand means. The average is arithmetic from the two packet facts. It is not a median gift and not a unique-donor figure.

43,566 is a contribution-line count. Repeat itemizations, redesignations, and memo entries can lengthen the list without adding people. This packet does not publish a donor headcount. Cite 43,566 as rows tagged 48304 on FEC.gov.

What the $34,775,254 sum includes

LobbyVault adds itemized federal receipts on which committees reported 48304 as the contributor ZIP. FEC.gov stores the string as filed. $34,775,254 is that sum. It is not a party ledger, not independent-expenditure spending from another ZIP, and not a Census of households.

Unitemized federal gifts never enter $34,775,254. State-office campaigns that never file with the FEC never enter it. Keep the citation inside itemized Schedule A rows labeled 48304.
