Liberal Super PACs Outspent Conservative PACs in Federal Races in 2013

November 12, 2013

Liberal Super PACs spent twice as much as conservative Super PACs in federal races in 2013, according to a Center for Responsive Politics tally of independent spending.

The liberal Super PACs spent $10.8 million despite condemnation of outside money from congressional Democrats and President Barack Obama, USA Today reports.

Seventy percent of election-related "dark-money" spending was liberal money. The money came from unions and billionaires Tom Steyer and Michael Bloomberg.
