Clear Choice PAC, Inc. is an American super political action committee based in Boston, Massachusetts. It is the sister organization of Clear Choice Action.
¶ History
Clear Choice PAC, Inc. was registered with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) on February 5, 2024,[1] and incorporated in Delaware on March 7, 2024.[2] It was founded by Pete Kavanaugh to "coordinate attacks on third-party candidates" in the 2024 United States presidential election, particularly Robert F. Kennedy Jr., No Labels and Cornel West, in collaboration with Third Way and American Bridge 21st Century.[3] Around the same time, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) formed its own "team to combat third-party candidates."[4]
On June 6, 2024, Clear Choice filed a complaint with the New York Board of Elections alleging that independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had violated state election law by putting the address of his New York property on his candidacy paperwork, despite not actually living in the state.[5]
