Loop ZIP 60606 as an FEC mailing code
Seventy thousand eight hundred sixty-six itemized lines produce $103,127,704. Downtown Chicago ZIPs often punch above their residential population because law firms, consultants, and PACs file from office towers. LobbyVault does not classify a row as office versus home; it stores the five digits on the FEC line. A West Loop suite and a converted loft can share 60606 on paper.
Searchers who want Chicago political donations will find many codes. 60606 is one of them, and $103,127,704 is only the money labeled with that ZIP. It is not a citywide total and not a Cook County board figure. Folding Loop codes together by hand creates a number FEC did not publish.
Office-district ZIPs are still worth ranking. They show where committees choose to file. They are a weak proxy for how a ward votes. Keep $103,127,704 in the mailing-code column, not in a neighborhood-identity column.
Mean size on 70,866 receipts
$103,127,704 / 70,866 is about $1,455 per itemized receipt. A four-digit mean in a Loop ZIP is a signal to inspect large committee rows.

Sort the ZIP 60606 FEC page by amount to see how much of the $103,127,704 sits in the top names.
There is no unique-donor count in this packet. Seventy thousand lines are receipts, not people. Repeat itemizers and memo entries both add rows. A law-firm PAC that reports from 60606 can add large lines without adding Loop residents.
