Insurance and Financial Advisors PAC
Registered Jan 1990 · Treasurer: Jay Scott Flowers · Cedar Falls, IA
Where the Money Goes
Of the $35,426 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $16,000 (45%) — 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 | $13,702 |
| Contributions to candidates | $16,000 |
- To TN candidates $16,000 45%
- Operating & other $13,702 39%
- Spent outside Tennessee $5,724 16%
“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.
