“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.

† Reported in this PAC’s own disbursement filing; the recipient’s receipt filing hasn’t itemized it yet.

Tracked candidates reported receiving $4,043 from this committee — $43 more than its own filings itemize ($4,000), because their receipt filings posted ahead of the committee’s covering report or span more cycles than its loaded filings.

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.

This committee sent $546 to 1 candidate and committee outside Tennessee, across 1 state. These are counted as spending outside Tennessee, not as Tennessee candidate support — Who Funds Tennessee doesn’t track out-of-state races, so they don’t link to a page here.

$25,387.56 (2% of money raised) came from its own sponsor, Tennessee Democratic Party — counted in every total, shown so it doesn’t read as outside support.
