Where the Money Goes

Of the $85,704 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $79,204 (92%) — went to operating costs and overhead. Operating costs consumed 92% of everything it spent; $6,500 went to Tennessee candidates.

Why this number?

Operating share of spending compares operating spending with total spent.
