How much did ZIP 70005 show in FEC itemized totals?

Receipts listing 70005 total $13,641,634 across 18,890 contributions. Those figures are FEC disclosure aggregates for the five-digit contributor ZIP. They are not a unique-donor census of Metairie and not the Louisiana Ethics Administration campaign totals.

Does 18,890 contributions mean 18,890 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 70005 FEC page. Repeat gifts and memo entries add rows without adding new people.

Does ZIP 70005 include Louisiana state races?

No. This extract is federal FEC itemizations. Louisiana Ethics Administration filings sit outside $13,641,634. Unitemized federal gifts are also out. Use the ZIP 70005 FEC page for the federal table. The packet facts stop at $13,641,634 and the contribution count. Named payees, dates, and employer strings live on the ZIP 70005 FEC page, not in this summary.

Where can I see 70005 itemizations?

On the ZIP 70005 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: $13,641,634, 18,890 contributions, and the five-digit contributor ZIP.

Contributions

Unique Donors

Itemized federal contributions that list ZIP 70005 add up to $13.6M across 18,890 contributions. The five-digit code is the contributor ZIP on FEC.gov receipts, not a Louisiana Ethics Administration local file. Nineteen thousand lines at this dollar scale is a thinner mid-length file: fewer rows than many $14 million ZIPs. Numbers come from FEC.gov records indexed on LobbyVault.

Key figures

ZIP 70005 FEC itemizations total $13,641,634 ($13.6M).
18,890 contributions list 70005 as the contributor ZIP.
Metairie’s 70005 tag is a filing key, not a Jefferson Parish headcount.
This packet has no unique-donor count.

Metairie’s $13,641,634 tagged receipts

$13,641,634 is a sum of disclosed federal contribution lines that carried 70005 in the ZIP field. Federal committees anywhere in the country can receive that money. The Louisiana Ethics Administration filings and local municipal races generally sit outside this extract. Unitemized gifts never enter the total. Quote $13.6M as ZIP-tagged federal disclosure, not as a census of what every household in Metairie spent.

Eighteen thousand eight hundred ninety rows is on the thinner side for a $14 million ZIP. Thinner files often make large committee lines easier to spot when sorted by amount. This aggregate still does not name the mix of individuals and committee traffic that share 70005. Jefferson Parish geography on the form is not a party split.

No party share, cycle series, or unique-person census is attached to $13,641,634. LobbyVault does not recode the ZIP field into a Jefferson Parish 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 $13.6M to a party, a cycle, or a unique-person roster.

18,890 contributions without a donor roster

The extract lists 18,890 contributions for 70005. 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 Metairie filings. A mid-length file at $13.6M can still mix large committee transfers with small itemized gifts. Repeat gifts and memo entries still add rows.

A list of 18,890 rows is practical to scan by amount. If a few committee lines account for a visible share of $13,641,634, 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 70005 as a geographic key on the contributor record, not as a Metairie political score.
