Unique Donors

Itemized federal contributions that list ZIP 60607 add up to $11.9M across 28,154 contributions. The five-digit code is the contributor ZIP on FEC.gov receipts, not an Illinois State Board of Elections local file. Twenty-eight thousand lines at this dollar scale is a mid-length receipt file rather than a thin stack of oversized transfers. Numbers come from FEC.gov records indexed on LobbyVault.

Key figures

  • ZIP 60607 FEC itemizations total $11,933,820 ($11.9M).
  • 28,154 contributions list 60607 as the contributor ZIP.
  • West Loop 60607 is a filing key, not a near-west Chicago headcount.
  • This packet has no unique-donor count.

West Loop $11,933,820 on 60607

$11,933,820 is a sum of disclosed federal contribution lines that carried 60607 in the ZIP field. Federal committees anywhere in the country can receive that money. the Illinois State Board of Elections 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 the West Loop spent.

Twenty-eight thousand one hundred fifty-four rows sits in the middle of $12 million ZIP files. Greektown, UIC-adjacent blocks, and Fulton Market offices can share 60607 with committee mail. 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 60607. Near-west geography on the form is not a party split.

No party share, cycle series, or unique-person census is attached to $11,933,820. LobbyVault does not recode the ZIP field into a near-west Chicago 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.

28,154 contributions without a donor roster

The extract lists 28,154 contributions for 60607. 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 the West Loop 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 28,154 rows is practical to scan by amount. If a few committee lines account for a visible share of $11,933,820, 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 60607 as a geographic key on the contributor record, not as a the West Loop political score.

How much did ZIP 60607 show in FEC itemized totals?

Does 28,154 contributions mean 28,154 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 60607 FEC page. Repeat gifts and memo entries add rows without adding new people.
Does ZIP 60607 include Illinois state races?
