Key figures

  • ZIP 98177 FEC itemizations total $21,758,224 across 45,766 contributions.
  • The mean line is about $475; the packet has no median or unique-donor count.
  • 98177 is a five-digit FEC contributor ZIP, not a resident roster.
  • Source: FEC.gov aggregates indexed on LobbyVault.

Forty-five thousand North Seattle lines

$21,758,224 divided by 45,766 is about $475 per itemized line. Shoreline and North Seattle mail share those five digits on Schedule A. That $475 figure is arithmetic from the packet, not a median gift and not a typical household along the Sound.

Forty-five thousand seven hundred sixty-six itemizations is a long receipt list. Repeat gifts, workplace itemizations, and bundled events can all add rows. 45,766 is not a headcount of people in Richmond Beach, Broadview, or Crown Hill.

No party share is attached to $21,758,224. 98177 is a geographic key on the contributor record. Cite 45,766 contributions with that total whenever the ZIP is quoted.

A shoreline ZIP on FEC forms

98177 covers North Seattle and Shoreline fringe mail. A contributor who lists a home, an office, or a committee that files 98177 adds to $21,758,224 when that ZIP is on the itemization. Treating the total as household-only giving misstates the field.

The 45,766-line count includes memo entries and redesignations. This guide does not invent a person count the packet omitted. King County geography is orientation only.

Questions

How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 98177?
FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 98177 total $21,758,224 across 45,766 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 North Seattle residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $475 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 98177?
LobbyVault counts 45,766 itemized contributions for ZIP 98177. Repeat gifts and memo entries can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total is $21,758,224. Cite the line count with the matching dollar total, not as a headcount.
Does ZIP 98177 include only Shoreline residents?
No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Office and committee addresses in the 98177 grid can be part of $21,758,224 when that is what was filed. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. The 45,766-line count follows the same rule.
Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 98177 totals?
The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $21,758,224 and 45,766 lines for ZIP 98177. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Washington state 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.
