Where the Money Goes
Of the $50,790 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $29,300 (58%) — went to activity outside Tennessee.
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 | $490 |
| Contributions to candidates | $21,000 |
- Spent outside Tennessee $29,300 58%
- To TN candidates $21,000 41%
- Operating & other $490 1.0%
“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.
