How a Mysterious Super PAC Is Exploiting FEC Rules

“A shadowy super PAC behind millions of dollars worth of television ads in Montana is showing voters how rules and regulations set by the Federal Election Commission can sometimes fall short of their intended purpose,” The Messenger reports.

“Typically, when a super PAC launches ads worth over $10,000, groups have to disclose which candidate they are supporting or opposing, how much money the expenditure costs, when the ads were disseminated, and the firm who executed the ad within 48 hours of making the communication.”

“Despite airing millions of dollars worth of attack ads, Last Best Place PAC hasn’t issued a single 48-hour notice of independent expenditures. It’s unclear who exactly is behind the ads.”
