Where the Money Goes

Of the $366,504 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $332,504 (91%) — went to operating costs and overhead. Operating costs consumed 91% of everything it spent; $26,500 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 spending: $332,504 ÷ Total spent: $366,504
Inputs behind Operating share of spending
Operating / overhead spending $332,504
Contributions to candidates $26,500

“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.

This committee’s own filings report $26,500 to candidates, while tracked candidates reported receiving $21,500. Of the $5,000 difference, $5,000 went to recipients not tracked here (itemized below).

Its filing also reports $5,000 in candidate contributions to recipients not tracked here — federal, local, and out-of-state races, and sitting legislators not on the 2026 ballot:

  • Burkhart, Jeff $1,500.00
  • Collierville Rotary Club $1,000.00
  • Holsclaw, John B. $1,000.00

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.
