Of the $390,517 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $300,800 (77%) — went to activity outside Tennessee.

Operating share of spending compares operating spending with total spent.

“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.
