Stand for Tennessee PAC
Where the Money Goes
Of the $24,371 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $23,669 (97%) — went to operating costs and overhead. Operating costs consumed 97% of everything it spent; $450 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 & other $23,669 97%
- To TN candidates $450 1.8%
- Spent outside Tennessee $252 1.0%
“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.
