How much did ZIP 58103 show in FEC itemized totals?

Receipts listing 58103 total $11,891,274 across 17,773 contributions. Those figures are FEC disclosure aggregates for the five-digit contributor ZIP. They are not a unique-donor census of south Fargo and not the North Dakota Secretary of State campaign totals.

Does 17,773 contributions mean 17,773 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 58103 FEC page. Repeat gifts and memo entries add rows without adding new people.

Does ZIP 58103 include North Dakota state races?

No. This extract is federal FEC itemizations. North Dakota Secretary of State filings sit outside $11,891,274. Unitemized federal gifts are also out. Use the ZIP 58103 FEC page for the federal table. Named payees live on that hub.

Where can I see 58103 itemizations?

On the ZIP 58103 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: $11,891,274, 17,773 contributions, and the five-digit contributor ZIP.

Fargo 58103’s $11,891,274 tagged sum

$11,891,274 is a sum of disclosed federal contribution lines that carried 58103 in the ZIP field. Federal committees anywhere in the country can receive that money. the North Dakota Secretary of State filings and local municipal races generally sit outside this extract. Unitemized gifts never enter the total. Quote $11.9M as ZIP-tagged federal disclosure, not as a census of what every household in south Fargo spent.

Seventeen thousand seven hundred seventy-three rows is on the thinner-mid side of $12 million ZIP files. South Fargo commercial strips and household streets can share 58103 with committee mail. Thinner-mid files often make large committee lines easier to spot when sorted by amount. This aggregate does not name the mix of individuals and committee traffic that share 58103. Cass County geography on the form is not a party split.

No party share, cycle series, or unique-person census is attached to $11,891,274. LobbyVault does not recode the ZIP field into a Cass County 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 $11.9M to a party, a cycle, or a unique-person roster.

17,773 contributions without a donor roster

The extract lists 17,773 contributions for 58103. 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 south Fargo filings. A mid-length file at $11.9M can still mix large committee transfers with small itemized gifts. Repeat gifts and memo entries still add rows.

A list of 17,773 rows is practical to scan by amount. If a few committee lines account for a visible share of $11,891,274, 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 58103 as a geographic key on the contributor record, not as a south Fargo political score.
