Registered Sep 2004 · Treasurer: Ryan E. Scott · Chattanooga, TN
Where the Money Goes
Of the $29,800 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $15,000 (50%) — went to other PACs and committees.
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 | $0 |
| Contributions to candidates | $9,000 |
- To other PACs $15,000 50%
- To TN candidates $9,000 30%
- Spent outside Tennessee $5,800 19%
“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.
