Where the Money Goes
Of the $1,121,397 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $886,397 (79%) — went to operating costs and overhead.
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 spending: $886,397 ÷ Total spent: $1,121,397
| Operating / overhead spending | $886,397 |
| Contributions to candidates | $0 |
- Operating & other $886,397 79%
- To other PACs $210,000 19%
- Spent outside Tennessee $25,000 2.2%
“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.
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.
