Key figures

  • ZIP 94402 FEC itemizations total $15,941,583 across 44,153 contributions.
  • The mean line is about $361; the packet has no median or unique-donor count.

44,153 lines behind $15,941,583

FEC.gov itemizations tagged 94402 add to $15,941,583. The matching line count is 44,153. Dividing dollars by lines yields about $361 per itemization. That mean is arithmetic from the two packet facts. It is not a median, not a typical San Mateo household gift, and not evidence that one committee dominates the ZIP. Peninsula ZIPs often carry both household itemizations and professional-office mail.

Forty-four thousand one hundred fifty-three 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 44,153 rows can still mix large transfers with small itemized gifts. Volume does not prove small-dollar giving, and a mean near $361 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 $15,941,583. Keep 94402 as a geographic key on the contributor record. LobbyVault does not recode the field into the Peninsula mid-stack political score. Readers who want named payees should open the live hub rather than infer a story from the mean.

Peninsula mail versus household giving

94402 covers a west-of-El Camino slice of San Mateo. A contributor who lists a San Mateo address, or a committee that files 94402, adds to $15,941,583 when that ZIP is on the itemization. The accurate description is tagged federal receipts, not β€œwhat San Mateo residents gave.”

The packet has no unique-donor count. Treat 44,153 as a line count. Repeat gifts add rows. Memo entries add rows. This guide does not convert lines into people. California state filings never enter the federal ZIP total.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 94402?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 94402 total $15,941,583 across 44,153 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 San Mateo residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it.
How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 94402?
LobbyVault counts 44,153 itemized contributions for ZIP 94402. 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 $15,941,583.
Does ZIP 94402 include only San Mateo residents?
No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office and committee addresses in San Mateo can be part of $15,941,583 when 94402 is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 44,153-line count follows the same rule.
Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 94402 totals?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $15,941,583 and 44,153 lines for ZIP 94402. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. California Fair Political Practices Commission 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.
