Where the Money Goes

Of the $19,854 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $16,054 (81%) — went to operating costs and overhead.

Why this number?

Operating / overhead spending divided by everything this committee spent (each expenditure lands in exactly one bucket).

Operating spending: $16,054 ÷ Total spent: $19,854

Contributions to Candidates

Contributions to tracked candidates
Candidate Office Party Total
Jerri Green Governor Dem. $3,900.00

Tracked candidates reported receiving $3,900 from this committee — $100 more than its own filings itemize ($3,800), because their receipt filings posted ahead of the committee’s covering report or span more cycles than its loaded filings.

Its filing also reports $300 in candidate contributions to recipients not tracked here — federal, local, and out-of-state races, and sitting legislators not on the 2026 ballot:

  • Evergreen Presbyterian Church $300.00

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.
