This committee sent $86,500 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.

$67,255.50 (0.4% of money raised) came from its own sponsor, Tennessee Legislative Campaign Committee — counted in every total, shown so it doesn’t read as outside support.
