Where the Money Goes
Of the $506,952 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $491,602 (97%) — 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 | $550 |
| Contributions to candidates | $13,500 |
- Spent outside Tennessee $491,602 97%
- To TN candidates $13,500 2.7%
- To other PACs $1,300 0.3%
- Operating & other $550 0.1%
“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 (itemized below). Separate from out-of-state donors.

- Whitson, Sam $1,250.00
- Dean, Vince $1,000.00
