Out-of-state share compares itemized money from outside tennessee with raised incl. in-kind.

Show formula

Who funds this campaign The sources split breaks down everything the campaign raised: the candidate’s own money (including self-loans), individuals (including unitemized small gifts), organizations and PACs, and “other” (in-kind contributions, loans other than the candidate’s, and the like) — open its “Why this number?” for the full breakdown. Gift-size and location figures cover itemized contributions only. Aggregates count everyone who gave, including donors below the $200 disclosure floor — a share across all donors identifies no one. Full definition →

The candidate’s own money made up 9% of the campaign’s funds — individuals gave 12%, organizations and PACs 79%.

Candidate’s own money $4K · 9% Individuals $5K · 12% Organizations & PACs $36K · 79%
Why this number?

Share from the candidate compares from the candidate's own money with everything the campaign raised.

Show formula

Everything the campaign raised, split into the candidate's own money (own contributions plus self- and family loans), individuals, organizations and PACs, and everything else — loans other than the candidate's, in-kind contributions, and (for federal filers) committee transfers and other receipts. Unitemized small donations count as individual money. The parts add up to the total raised. The headline share is the candidate divided by the total.

From the candidate's own money: $4,100 ÷ Everything the campaign raised: $45,050
Inputs behind Share from the candidate
Candidate's own money (incl. self-loans) $4,100
From individuals $5,250
From organizations and PACs $35,700

Where the money comes from Shares of itemized dollars, by the contributor’s state and city as filed. A city is named only when at least 5 donors gave from it or it holds at least 5% of the located dollars; everyone else is grouped into “elsewhere.” Shown only when at least 80% of dollars carry a usable state. Full definition →

85% of located dollars came from within Tennessee (15% from out of state).

Tennessee $34,750 Out of state $5,900
  • Nashville $26K63%
  • Washington, DC $3K6%
  • Cleveland $3K6%
  • Elsewhere in Tennessee $7K
  • Other out-of-state $3K
Why this number?

Out-of-state share of located dollars compares itemized money from outside tennessee with itemized money with a known state.

Show formula

Itemized contribution dollars from outside Tennessee, divided by all itemized dollars whose contributor state is known. A city is named only when at least 5 donors gave from it OR it holds at least 5% of the located dollars; everyone else is grouped into elsewhere-in-Tennessee and other-out-of-state. Shown only above 99% state coverage. Based on itemized contributions only (loans and money a filer reported as an unitemized lump sum are not included).

Itemized money from outside Tennessee: $5,900 ÷ Itemized money with a known state: $40,650
