Where the Money Goes
Of the $30,315 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $29,624 (98%) — went to operating costs and overhead. Operating costs consumed 98% of everything it spent; $225 went to Tennessee candidates.
Why this number?
Operating share of spending compares operating spending with total spent.
