How much did ZIP 55118 show in FEC itemized totals?

Receipts listing 55118 total $11,093,568 across 27,818 contributions. Those figures are FEC disclosure aggregates for the five-digit contributor ZIP. They are not a unique-donor census of West St. Paul and not the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board campaign totals.

Does 27,818 contributions mean 27,818 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 55118 FEC page. Repeat gifts and memo entries add rows without adding new people.

Does ZIP 55118 include Minnesota state races?

No. This extract is federal FEC itemizations. Minnesota Campaign Finance Board filings sit outside $11,093,568. Unitemized federal gifts are also out. Use the ZIP 55118 FEC page for the federal table. Named payees live on that hub. The packet facts stop at $11,093,568 and 27,818 contributions. Named payees, dates, and employer strings live on the ZIP 55118 FEC page, not in this summary.

Where can I see 55118 itemizations?

This packet has no unique-donor count.

West St. Paul $11,093,568 on 55118

$11.1M is the rounded headline for $11,093,568 tagged to 55118. Rounding does not create a second dataset. Money in this bucket can land at federal committees nationwide. The Minnesota Campaign Finance Board activity stays out. Unitemized gifts stay out. Do not caption $11,093,568 as “West St. Paul residents wrote checks for $11.1M” unless the hub rows actually show that.

Twenty-seven thousand eight hundred eighteen rows is a mid-length file among ZIPs near $11 million. West St. Paul and adjoining Mendota Heights–side mail can share 55118 with committee addresses. 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 55118. Dakota County geography on the form is not a party split.

Treat $11,093,568 as an itemized-dollar bucket for 55118, not as a verdict on West St. Paul. The packet does not attach a party share, an election-cycle series, or a unique-person census. Hub rows carry the names this summary omits. If a later LobbyVault extract disagrees with $11.1M or 27,818, FEC.gov controls. Do not fill the missing donor headcount with arithmetic.

27,818 contributions without a donor roster

The extract lists 27,818 contributions for 55118. 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 West St. Paul filings. A mid-length file at $11.1M can still mix large committee transfers with small itemized gifts. Repeat gifts and memo entries still add rows.

A list of 27,818 rows is practical to scan by amount. If a few committee lines account for a visible share of $11,093,568, the committee column on the hub will show it. If the total is many individual names, that will show too. This page will not publish an average as if the FEC printed one. Keep 55118 as a geographic key on the contributor record, not as a West St. Paul political score.
