Where the Money Goes
Of the $393,959 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $234,650 (60%) — 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 spending: $92,509 ÷ Total spent: $393,959
| Operating / overhead spending | $92,509 |
| Contributions to candidates | $234,650 |
- To TN candidates $234,650 60%
- Operating & other $92,509 23%
- To other PACs $55,550 14%
- Spent outside Tennessee $11,250 2.9%
“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.
