The Tennessee Registry of Election Finance has ordered two Constitutional Republican groups to register as political action committees (PACs), Tennessee Lookout reports. The move comes after a complaint was filed against the groups, which claim registration is not necessary and arguing they are private social clubs that do not provide financial support to candidates. Before voting to direct the Sumner County Constitutional Republicans and Tennessee Constitutional Republicans to register, some members of the panel suggested the matter be referred to a separate entity for review, including the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. Those recommendations were not pursued.
