Where the Money Goes

Of the $1,307,013 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $657,006 (50%) — went to operating costs and overhead.

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 spending: $657,006 ÷ Total spent: $1,307,013
Inputs behind Operating share of spending
Operating / overhead spending $657,006
Contributions to candidates $215,500

“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.
