Where the Money Goes

Of the $12,730 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $9,230 (73%) — went to operating costs and overhead.

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: $9,230 ÷ Total spent: $12,730
Inputs behind Operating share of spending
Operating / overhead spending $9,230
Contributions to candidates $3,000

“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.

Contributions to Candidates

Contributions to tracked candidates
Candidate Office Party Total
Heidi Campbell † Tennessee Senate, District 20 Dem. $1,000.00

† Reported in this PAC’s own disbursement filing; the recipient’s receipt filing hasn’t itemized it yet.

This committee’s own filings report $3,000 to candidates, while tracked candidates reported receiving $1,000. Of the $2,000 difference, $2,000 went to recipients not tracked here (itemized below).

Its filing also reports $2,000 in candidate contributions to recipients not tracked here — federal, local, and out-of-state races, and sitting legislators not on the 2026 ballot:

  • Scruggs, Glenn $1,000.00
  • Blair for Congress $500.00
  • Marguita Bradshaw for US Senate $500.00

Tennessee caps what a PAC may give one candidate per election — $15,400 for statewide and House races, $30,800 for Senate races (2025–26 limits; a primary and a general count as separate elections). Registry of Election Finance limits.

Given in Other States

This committee sent $500 to 1 candidate and committee outside Tennessee, across 1 state. These are counted as spending outside Tennessee, not as Tennessee candidate support — Who Funds Tennessee doesn’t track out-of-state races, so they don’t link to a page here.
