The same donor can appear here as more than one record when filings list different details
for them — another address, a different employer, a new spelling of the name. We merge
records only when we can prove they're one person; uncertain matches stay separate.

Why are there two totals?
Gross total given is the face value of everything this donor contributed. Est. TN-directed discounts gifts to PACs by the share of each PAC's spending that leaves Tennessee — so the gap between the two is money headed out of state, or not yet spent.
