There are 9 million reasons John Rose wants to be Tennessee Governor – and they are the $9 million he’s donated to his own campaign.
Just over 4% of the money Rose has raised and spent for his campaign comes from people not named John Rose.
So, while more than 70% of the funds being spent to elect Marsha Blackburn come from out-of-state, more than 95% of the money being spent to convince voters to choose Rose comes from his own checkbook.
Rose and Blackburn both support Tennessee’s $300 million school voucher scheme – a plan on track to cost well over $1 billion a year by 2030.
