Automobile Club of Michigan PAC
Registered Jan 2014 · Treasurer: Heather Drake · Dearborn, MI
Where the Money Goes
Of the $45,200 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $43,200 (96%) — went to activity outside Tennessee.
Why this number?
Operating share of spending compares operating spending with total spent.
Show formula
Operating / overhead spending divided by everything this committee spent (each expenditure lands in exactly one bucket).
| Operating / overhead spending | $0 |
| Contributions to candidates | $2,000 |
- Spent outside Tennessee $43,200 96%
- To TN candidates $2,000 4.4%
“Spent outside Tennessee” is money this committee sent out of state — a multi-state committee’s lump non-Tennessee line plus any individually-filed out-of-state contributions. Separate from out-of-state donors.
