Where the Money Goes

Of the $47,174 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $32,100 (68%) — 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: $12,814 ÷ Total spent: $47,174
Inputs behind Operating share of spending
Operating / overhead spending $12,814
Contributions to candidates $32,100

“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.
