Where the Money Goes

Of the $3,432,877 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $1,447,548 (42%) — went to activity outside Tennessee.

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: $675,118 ÷ Total spent: $3,432,877
Inputs behind Operating share of spending
Operating / overhead spending $675,118
Contributions to candidates $617,850

“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.
