Who funds this campaign

The candidate’s own money made up 0.2% of the campaign’s funds — individuals gave 61%, organizations and PACs 6%, with 32% from other sources.

Candidate’s own money $100 · 0.2% Individuals $34K · 61% Organizations & PACs $4K · 6% Other sources $18K · 32%

Why this number?

Everything the campaign raised, split into the candidate's own money (own contributions plus self- and family loans), individuals, organizations and PACs, and everything else — loans other than the candidate's, in-kind contributions, and (for federal filers) committee transfers and other receipts. Unitemized small donations count as individual money. The parts add up to the total raised. The headline share is the candidate divided by the total.

From the candidate's own money: $100 ÷ Everything the campaign raised: $55,475

Why this number?

Every individual donor's total contributions to this campaign, divided by the number of individual donors. Organizations and PACs are excluded (this measures people); a donor who gave under several name spellings is counted once. The median and the gift-size buckets are computed over the same individual-donor totals. Based on itemized contributions only (loans and money a filer reported as an unitemized lump sum are not included).

Where the money comes from

98% of located dollars came from within Tennessee (2% from out of state).

Tennessee $36,725 Out of state $750

Germantown $19K50%
Memphis $10K26%
Gtown $7K19%
Elsewhere in Tennessee $850
Other out-of-state $750

Why this number?

Itemized contribution dollars from outside Tennessee, divided by all itemized dollars whose contributor state is known. A city is named only when at least 5 donors gave from it OR it holds at least 5% of the located dollars; everyone else is grouped into elsewhere-in-Tennessee and other-out-of-state. Shown only above 99% state coverage. Based on itemized contributions only (loans and money a filer reported as an unitemized lump sum are not included).
