Show formula
Operating / overhead spending divided by everything this committee spent (each expenditure lands in exactly one bucket).
| Operating / overhead spending | $150 |
| Contributions to candidates | $1,250 |
- Spent outside Tennessee $232,000 99.4%
- To TN candidates $1,250 0.5%

“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.
Contributions to Candidates
No contributions to tracked candidates on record.
This committee’s own filings report $1,250 to candidates, while tracked candidates reported receiving $0. Of the $1,250 difference, $1,250 went to recipients not tracked here (itemized below).
