ZIP Code 74119

Ten thousand lines against $25,578,666

Ten thousand three hundred thirty-seven itemized receipts add to $25,578,666. The mean is about $2,474 per line ($25,578,666 / 10,337). That is a high mean for a downtown ZIP. It is the arithmetic you get when large committee transfers share a Tulsa core code with a shorter personal-itemization list. Comparing 74119 with a high-volume residential code without noting the 10,337-line gap will mislead a reader.

ZIP 74119 is used on downtown Tulsa mail, including office towers and committee letterhead. LobbyVault does not relabel those rows as non-residential; the ZIP field is whatever the filer reported. The $25,578,666 total therefore follows the form, not a residential occupancy file.

A shorter downtown list is still a public record. It is useful for seeing where committees file. It is a poor proxy for how downtown Tulsa votes. Keep those questions out of a ZIP rollup that only contains dollars and a receipt count.

Why a 10,337-line ZIP distorts neighborhood stories

If you treat $25,578,666 as what people in 74119 gave, you invent a neighborhood that the form field does not describe. Ten thousand three hundred thirty-seven rows is short enough that the largest lines are easy to inspect. Sort the ZIP 74119 FEC page by amount. A handful of payers can account for a large share of the total. That is a reading of the table, not a motive claim.

A mean near $2,474 is a prompt to read the payer column, not a typical household check. LobbyVault’s ZIP total follows the ZIP on each itemization it includes. It does not reconstruct the full path of every dollar.

Questions

What is the ZIP 74119 contribution total?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 74119 total $25,578,666 across 10,337 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of downtown Tulsa residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $2,474 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 74119?

LobbyVault counts 10,337 itemized contributions for ZIP 74119. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. Those rows are itemized Schedule A lines, not people. The matching dollar total is $25,578,666.

Does ZIP 74119 include only downtown Tulsa residents?

No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office and committee addresses in the 74119 grid can be part of $25,578,666 when that is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 10,337-line count follows the same rule.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 74119 totals?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $25,578,666 and 10,337 lines for ZIP 74119. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Oklahoma state filings are outside both figures. LobbyVault is the index, not the filing system. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls.
