Both candidates support overturning the controversial Citizens United Supreme Court verdict, which allows the well off to donate as much money as they want without disclosing the donation through super PACs. A super PAC can be a corporation or a private group of donors who are able to contribute an unlimited amount of money to political causes — but not directly to campaigns.
