Where the Money Goes
Of the $613,812 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $281,527 (46%) — 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: $281,527 ÷ Total spent: $613,812
| Operating / overhead spending | $281,527 |
| Contributions to candidates | $240,210 |
- Operating & other $281,527 46%
- To TN candidates $240,210 39%
- To other PACs $64,250 10%
- Spent outside Tennessee $27,825 4.5%
“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.
