Sheldon Adelson writes another million dollar check for new super PAC

by

Casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, the most prolific campaign contributor this election, has written another million dollar check–this time, to a little-known super PAC called "Freedom PAC" that first popped-up last month. The contribution was disclosed in the group's quarterly filing, submitted to the Federal Election Commission on Monday.

According to it's website, the PAC–which lists a New York address–is devoted to "supporting strong conservative candidates in Florida," in particular Rep. Connie Mack, who's running for senate.

Besides Adelson's contribution, the PAC took in $91,000, including $5,000 from Contran CEO Harold Simmons, who's also donated millions of dollars to right-leaning super PACs. The political group has yet to air any attack ads, but has spent $5,000 producing a spot featuring former Florida governor Jeb Bush endorising Mack, according to filings.

Freedom PAC has also spent $5,000 on legal services from Bracewell & Giuliani, the law firm that employs former New York mayor and one-time presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani.
