ZIP Code 80202

Sixty-eight thousand lines under $48.1 million

$48,141,805 divided by 68,820 is about $700. The mean is a ratio for researchers, not a typical gift. FEC.gov did not publish a median for 80202. A few large committee receipts can sit inside $48,141,805 without describing how most rows look. LobbyVault reports the dollar sum and the contribution count.

Sixty-eight thousand eight hundred twenty itemizations is a mid-to-high volume list. Sorting by dollars and sorting by count will not put 80202 in the same rank band as a 700-line ZIP with similar dollars. That contrast is filing shape. It is not a ranking of civic virtue. No party split is published on this ZIP total.

Downtown mail codes collect office PACs as readily as apartments. $48,141,805 is a ZIP roll-up of whatever five-digit code was filed. It is not a neighborhood census. 68,820 remains a line count on the same extract. Quote both numbers.

What FEC stored under 80202

The contributor ZIP on Schedule A is a five-digit string. A PAC, a joint fundraising committee, or an individual listing 80202 adds to $48,141,805 when that is the filed ZIP. The Commission does not flag which rows are residences. Recoding the total as household giving would be a new dataset.

68,820 is an itemization count. Repeat filers, redesignations, and memo entries add rows. This packet has no unique-donor field. This guide does not invent one.

Downtown mail codes like 80202 are easy to misread as resident books. FEC.gov stored the ZIP that was filed. $48,141,805 across 68,820 lines is what that field sums to in this aggregate. A mean near $700 follows from division. Unique donors are not in the packet.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 80202?

FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 80202 total $48,141,805 across 68,820 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $700 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.

How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 80202?

LobbyVault counts 68,820 itemized contributions for ZIP 80202. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts, redesignations, and memo entries can add rows. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $48,141,805.

Does ZIP 80202 include only residents?

No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. PAC mail drops, joint fundraising committees, and office addresses can be part of $48,141,805 when 80202 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 68,820-line count follows the same rule.

Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 80202 totals?

The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $48,141,805 and 68,820 lines for ZIP 80202. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and non-federal filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
