A super PAC backing Florida Gov. 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 person familiar with the move.

The draft committee the super PAC encouraged donations to go to isCongressional party committees, which are also subject to federal donation maximums, have also set up"nominee funds" to raise and then transfer money to their party's eventual nominee after the primary.

"We will continue to turn that energy into action and do things no other Super PAC has done before. Every dollar Never Back Down asks for online will go directly to the Ron DeSantis for President campaign," said Kristin Davison, the PAC's chief operating officer. "Super PACs are supposed to be independent, and this sure doesn't look like independence,," he said."[The draft committee entity] doesn't change the fact that the super PAC appears to have underwritten the cost of fundraising for that entity, which is a tantamount to paying costs for the DeSantis campaign. Again, this is uncharted water but it seems like an illegal effort to circumvent the laws barring super PAC-campaign coordination.

The Never Back Down group is testing the boundaries of super PAC support in more than one way. Traditionally, because donations to super PACs are not subject to federal limits, a super PAC will spend money on messaging and TV ads, even though advertisement rates are much cheaper for a campaign than for a super PAC.
