Tennessee Radiologists PAC
Registered Jan 1990 · Treasurer: Gary Podgorski MD · Nashville, FL
Where the Money Goes
Of the $45,500 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $26,000 (57%) — went to Tennessee candidates.
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 / overhead spending | $2,500 |
| Contributions to candidates | $26,000 |
- To TN candidates $26,000 57%
- To other PACs $16,500 36%
- Operating & other $2,500 5.5%
- Spent outside Tennessee $500 1.1%
“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.
