Kentucky in the name, Georgia on the statement of organization

KENTUCKY FREEDOM PAC's distinctive organizational fact is the mismatch between title geography and address geography. Kentucky is in the committee name. The FEC city and state of record are Athens, Georgia. Neither field proves where independent expenditures ran. Super PAC IE activity can be reported in any federal contest the committee files on.

Committee ID C00772020 is the match key when other Kentucky-freedom titles appear in the PAC directory. LobbyVault pulls the dollar figures from FEC committee aggregates, not from Kentucky or Georgia state campaign-finance agencies.

Freedom is a crowded title word. Form 3X is the report family federal Super PACs use.

Near-total spend-through on $6.20 million

Total disbursements are $6,194,350.15 against $6,198,094.03 in receipts, about 99.9% spend-through. The $3,743.88 gap is not labeled as cash on hand. Timing, refunds, and how FEC rolls cycles into an aggregate can produce near-matched lines.

Disbursements on a Super PAC can include independent expenditures plus operating costs. This summary does not split them. If you need the independent-expenditure schedule, go to the FEC reports for C00772020.

Individual money: $6,000,075, about 96.8%

Individual contributions total $6,000,075, about 96.8% of receipts. Reported inflows are therefore almost entirely tagged as individual under FEC rules. The leftover $198,019.03 sits in other receipt categories this packet does not name.

The individual-contribution aggregate does not list donors. Itemized contributor schedules, where required, are on FEC.gov. Super PAC rules allow large individual contributions that candidate committees cannot accept.

Athens treasurer field

The treasurer of record is Paul Kilgore. Treasurer names appear because FEC statements of organization require one. Citing Paul Kilgore identifies the filing, not a biography. Independent-expenditure-only status is the Super PAC flag.

What this Super PAC page is not

This guide is not an endorsement, not a Kentucky or Georgia election forecast, and not a donor ranking. It restates three FEC aggregates — $6,198,094.03 received, $6,194,350.15 disbursed, $6,000,075 in individual contributions — plus the Super PAC flag, city, and treasurer. These totals are not a candidate's Form 3 campaign report.

How to read a name-versus-address Super PAC

Cite the packet facts in this order: $6,198,094.03 received, $6,194,350.15 disbursed, $6,000,075 individual, treasurer Paul Kilgore, Athens, Georgia, committee C00772020. Open the KENTUCKY FREEDOM PAC committee page for the tables. Use the Super PAC tracker to compare type-O committees. Use the PAC directory when Kentucky titles collide.

Do not fold $6,198,094.03 into a candidate's authorized-committee receipts. Do not treat the Kentucky nickname as a spending map. Independent-expenditure-only status means Super PAC Form 3X. LobbyVault does not endorse the committee.

Form 3X is the report family behind KENTUCKY FREEDOM PAC's $6,198,094.03 receipt total and $6,194,350.15 disbursement total. Those two lines produce about 99.9% spend-through on committee C00772020, with a $3,743.88 gap the packet does not label as cash on hand. Individual contributions of $6,000,075 are about 96.8% of receipts, leaving $198,019.03 in unnamed FEC categories. Treasurer Paul Kilgore and the Athens, Georgia, address of record identify the Super PAC on FEC.gov. Independent-expenditure-only status means these figures are not a candidate's Form 3 campaign report.

Kentucky in the title and Georgia as the address of record are two geographies. They are not a spending map. Open the committee overlay for the tables, the Super PAC tracker for other type-O committees with name-versus-address mismatches, and the PAC directory when Kentucky titles overlap. Stay inside those three links. Do not fold $6,198,094.03 into a Kentucky or Georgia state-campaign ledger.

A 96.8% individual share on a 99.9% spend-through Super PAC is a near-clone of both the receipt mix and the spending line. Itemized schedules, where required, are on FEC.gov. LobbyVault does not endorse KENTUCKY FREEDOM PAC.

Athens, Georgia, as the city of record on C00772020 is an organization field. Kentucky in the committee name is a title geography. Neither field confines the $6,198,094.03 in receipts or the $6,194,350.15 in disbursements to one state. Paul Kilgore as treasurer identifies the filing. Form 3X stays on the Super PAC side. The 99.9% spend-through and 96.8% individual share remain the two ratios.

The $198,019.03 leftover on C00772020 sits outside the $6,000,075 individual line.
