How much did ZIP 60604 show in FEC itemized totals?

Receipts listing 60604 total $12,351,310 across 12,331 contributions. Those figures are FEC disclosure aggregates for the five-digit contributor ZIP. They are not a unique-donor census of the Loop and not Illinois State Board of Elections campaign totals. The packet facts stop at $12,351,310 and 12,331 contributions; named payees, dates, and employer strings live on the ZIP 60604 FEC page.

Does 12,331 contributions mean 12,331 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 60604 FEC page. Repeat gifts and memo entries add rows without adding new people. Open the ZIP 60604 FEC page for names behind the 12,331 lines.

Does ZIP 60604 include Illinois state races?

Use the ZIP 60604 FEC page for the federal table. The packet facts stop at $12,351,310 and the contribution count. Named payees, dates, and employer strings live on the ZIP 60604 FEC page, not in this summary.

$12.4M in itemized federal contributions list ZIP 60604 on FEC.gov receipts, spread across 12,331 contribution lines. The exact aggregate is $12,351,310.

Key figures

ZIP 60604 FEC itemizations total $12,351,310 ($12.4M).
12,331 contributions list 60604 — a short receipt file at this dollar scale.
The Loop’s 60604 tag is a filing key, not a Cook County headcount.
This packet has no unique-donor count.

The Loop’s $12,351,310

$12,351,310 is a sum of disclosed federal contribution lines that carried 60604 in the ZIP field. Federal committees anywhere in the country can receive that money. Illinois State Board of Elections filings and Chicago municipal races sit outside this extract. Unitemized gifts never enter the total. Quote $12.4M as ZIP-tagged federal disclosure, not as a census of what every household in the Loop spent — 60604 is a downtown mail key with many office addresses.

Twelve thousand three hundred thirty-one rows is a short file among ZIPs near $12 million. A short list at this dollar scale can still mix large committee transfers with small itemized gifts. This aggregate does not name that mix. Cook County geography on the form is not a party split.

No party share, cycle series, or unique-person census is attached to $12,351,310. LobbyVault does not recode the ZIP field into a Loop 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.

12,331 contributions without a roster

The extract lists 12,331 contributions for 60604. 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 Loop filings. A short file at $12.4M can still mix large committee transfers with small itemized gifts. Repeat gifts and memo entries still add rows.

A list of 12,331 rows is practical to scan by amount. If a few committee lines account for a visible share of $12,351,310, the committee column on the hub will show it. This page will not publish an average as if the FEC printed one. Keep 60604 as a geographic key on the contributor record.
