CA-11: Connie Chan (D) gets big PAC boost

Two (not so) mysterious PACs have started spending big for Chan. Pro-Choice Majority Action and Rising Tide Collective put in $325,000 and $110,000, respectively, for digital ads and text messages to voters late last week.

Who is funding these groups and why they chose to get involved at this late date is unclear — both PACs only started spending in the past two weeks, so they have yet to file any disclosures saying where their funding is coming from.

But, Pro-Choice Majority Action seems to be affiliated with other Democratic PACs and both use the same treasurer, Blue Wave Politics, a left-wing political consulting firm.

The big spending came days after Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi endorsed Chan for Congress. And though the funding is coming in at the last minute, Chan is neck and neck with Saikat Chakrabarti for the No. 2 slot, and every vote counts.
