Where the Money Goes
Of the $83,432 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $68,450 (82%) — went to Tennessee candidates.
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 | $532 |
| Contributions to candidates | $68,450 |
- To TN candidates $68,450 82%
- To other PACs $13,950 17%

“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.
