"DeSantis' Campaign Finance and Twitter Woes Draw Attention"

A super PAC supporting Ron DeSantis' presidential run has raised $500,000 into a separate draft committee that is expected to be transferred directly to his campaign in the coming days, according to a source. Campaign finance experts called the move "unprecedented" and had mixed reactions on if it violated FEC regulations. The transfer of "hard" campaign dollars from a super PAC to a campaign has not ever been tried, largely because different laws govern the two types of fundraising entities. The DeSantis campaign said Thursday night that it raised $8.2 million within the first 24 hours of launching.
