The modern presidential campaign isn't a single organization. Once a
candidate declares he or she is running, there's always an official
campaign committee. In addition, leadership PACs let presidential hopefuls
make donations to potential political allies. The big money is in super
PACs and other outside groups devoted to boosting a single candidate, which
can solicit unlimited donations and later use the funds to pummel rivals –
and, as seems to be happening this cycle, take on some of the duties
traditionally handled by a campaign. In addition, super PACs have been
formed for the sole purpose of bashing a single candidate. Outside groups
aren't allowed to coordinate with campaigns, but they're often run by
friends and former staffers – even family members – of the candidate
they're helping. Here, we've collected all the known groups dedicated to
promoting or attacking current 2016 presidential candidates – 55
and counting.
