Where the Money Goes

Of the $70,700 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $41,300 (58%) — 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: $41,300 ÷ Total spent: $70,700
Inputs behind Operating share of spending
Operating / overhead spending $41,300
Contributions to candidates $11,500

“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.

This committee’s own filings report $11,500 to candidates, while tracked candidates reported receiving $0. Of the $11,500 difference, $11,500 went to recipients not tracked here (itemized below).

Its filing also reports $11,500 in candidate contributions to recipients not tracked here — federal, local, and out-of-state races, and sitting legislators not on the 2026 ballot:

  • Ford, Ophelia $1,000.00
  • Lusk, Bill $1,000.00
  • Moseley, J. Glenn $1,000.00

  • …and 6 more recipients

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.
