Where the Money Goes
Of the $78,650 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $52,200 (66%) — 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 / overhead spending | $10,300 |
| Contributions to candidates | $52,200 |
- To TN candidates $52,200 66%
- To other PACs $15,850 20%
- Operating & other $10,300 13%
- Spent outside Tennessee $300 0.4%
“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.
Contributions to Candidates
No contributions to tracked candidates on record.
This committee’s own filings report $52,200 to candidates, while tracked candidates reported receiving $0. Of the $52,200 difference, $52,200 went to recipients not tracked here (itemized below).
