The county’s structured data does not carry the itemized schedule for the Pre General report, so individual contributors and payees are not listed here. The filing itself lists them — follow its source link above.
Totals are the sum of the itemized contribution and expenditure schedules as disclosed. Schedules are itemized only at or above the filing threshold; sub-threshold amounts and the filer’s stated cover-page totals are not part of this structured record, so they are not shown here rather than guessed.
Interim reports (final-days major-donor disclosures)
An interim report (TN form SS-1123) lists only major contributions and expenditures from the final days before an election — it is not a full-period summary and states no totals, so its items are shown here separately and are never counted in the figures above.
