Where the Money Goes

Of the $1,403,972 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $1,297,862 (92%) — went to operating costs and overhead. Operating costs consumed 92% 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.

Show formula

Operating / overhead spending divided by everything this committee spent (each expenditure lands in exactly one bucket).
