Where the Money Goes
Of the $1,004,115 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $592,455 (59%) — 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: $592,455 ÷ Total spent: $1,004,115
| Operating / overhead spending | $592,455 |
| Contributions to candidates | $283,810 |
- Operating & other $592,455 59%
- To TN candidates $283,810 28%
- To other PACs $115,050 11%
- Spent outside Tennessee $12,800 1.3%
“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.
