Where the Money Goes

Of the $18,641 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $17,441 (94%) — went to operating costs and overhead. Operating costs consumed 94% of everything it spent; none of it reached Tennessee candidates as direct contributions.

Why this number?

Operating share of spending compares operating spending with total spent.
