Registered Oct 1998 · Treasurer: Jane Adams · Washington, DC
Where the Money Goes
Of the $10,000 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $5,500 (55%) — 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 | $0 |
| Contributions to candidates | $5,500 |
- To TN candidates $5,500 55%
- To other PACs $3,000 30%
- Spent outside Tennessee $1,500 15%
“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.

- Alexander for Senate $1,500.00
- Tanner, John $1,000.00
