Across Tennessee politics

At least $16,850.00 in total

$15,250.00 U.S. Congress $1,600.00 Tennessee state

Combined from two separately filed public records; each side is that site's own published total and may exclude unmerged name variants, so the combined figure is a floor. As of 2026-09-09.

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.
