40,976 lines behind $16,040,381
FEC.gov itemizations tagged 80218 add to $16,040,381. The matching line count is 40,976. Dividing dollars by lines yields about $391 per itemization. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts. It is not a median, not a typical Capitol Hill Denver household gift, and not evidence that one committee dominates the ZIP. Central Denver ZIPs often carry both apartment-building itemizations and committee mail.
Forty thousand nine hundred seventy-six itemizations is a thicker file than several peer codes near $16 million that clear similar dollars with fewer than 20,000 rows. A list of 40,976 rows can still mix large transfers with small itemized gifts. Volume does not prove small-dollar giving, and a mean near $391 does not prove a single payer. This aggregate does not name the mix of individuals and committee traffic that share the same five digits.
No party share is attached to $16,040,381. Keep 80218 as a geographic key on the contributor record. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a central Denver political score. Readers who want named payees should open the live hub rather than infer a story from the mean.
Capitol Hill mail is not a resident census
80218 covers Capitol Hill and Cheesman-adjacent streets in central Denver. A contributor who lists a Capitol Hill Denver address, or a committee that files 80218, adds to $16,040,381 when that ZIP is on the itemization. The accurate description is tagged federal receipts, not “what Capitol Hill Denver residents gave.”
The packet has no unique-donor count. Treat 40,976 as a line count. Repeat gifts add rows. Memo entries add rows. This guide does not convert lines into people. Colorado state filings never enter the federal ZIP total.

Questions
- How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 80218?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 80218 total $16,040,381 across 40,976 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 Capitol Hill Denver residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
- How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 80218?
- LobbyVault counts 40,976 itemized contributions for ZIP 80218. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total is $16,040,381.
- Does ZIP 80218 include only Denver residents?
- No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office and committee addresses in Capitol Hill Denver can be part of $16,040,381 when 80218 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 40,976-line count follows the same rule.
- Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 80218 totals?
- The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $16,040,381 and 40,976 lines for ZIP 80218. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Colorado Secretary of State campaign-finance filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees, the Commission’s filing controls.
ZIP is the 5-digit contributor ZIP on FEC itemizations. Totals can include joint fundraising and PAC addresses, not only residents.
