Dark money

In the politics of the United States, dark money is a term for funds given to nonprofit organizations—primarily 501(c)(4) (social welfare) and 501(c)(6) (trade association) groups—that can receive unlimited donations from corporations, individuals, and unions, and spend funds to influence elections, but are not required to disclose their donors.According to the Center for Responsive Politics, ""spending by organizations that do not disclose their donors has increased from less than $5.2 million in 2006 to well over $300 million in the 2012 presidential cycle and more than $174 million in the 2014 midterms."" The New York Times editorial board has opined that the 2014 midterm elections were influenced by ""the greatest wave of secret, special-interest money ever raised in a congressional election.""According to the Center for Responsive Politics, dark money (defined as outside groups that did not publicly disclose donors plus groups that received a substantial portion of their contributions from such nondisclosing groups) ""accounted for nearly 44 percent of outside spending in the 2010 election cycle.""
