Where the Money Goes

Of the $14,171 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $8,000 (56%) — went to Tennessee candidates.

Why this number?

Operating share of spending compares operating spending with total spent.

This committee’s own filings report $8,000 to candidates, while tracked candidates reported receiving $1,000. Of the $7,000 difference, $7,000 went to recipients not tracked here (itemized below).

Its filing also reports $7,000 in candidate contributions to recipients not tracked here — federal, local, and out-of-state races, and sitting legislators not on the 2026 ballot:

  • Boyd, Randy $3,500.00
  • Chuck Fleischmann for Congress $2,000.00
  • Citizens To Elect Jim Coppinger $1,500.00

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.
