If super political action committees (PACs) cannot donate directly to political campaigns, how do they best support the campaigns?
They run negative campaigns against opponents.
They pay for goods and services that can be donated.
They run independent campaigns in support of candidates.
They lobby Congress in support of candidates.
Super political action committees (PACs) best support political campaigns by running independent campaigns in support of candidates.
While they cannot donate directly to candidates, they can engage in fundraising and spend unlimited amounts on political advertising and other forms of communication that support their preferred candidates. This independent expenditure allows them to influence the election without coordinating directly with the campaigns.
