Campaign spending: Top 2nd quarter political donation recipients in Tennessee in 2019

Campaign16

These were the political organizations that received the most money from campaign donations in Tennessee from April 1 to June 30, 2019, according to the Federal Election Commission.

Donations made to political groups or candidates must be disclosed under state law for greater transparency in elections. While Congress created the Federal Election Commission to oversee federal elections in 1974, each state is left to regulate its local elections.
