An updated FEC form filed on behalf of Mitt Romney has some on Twitter thinking it’s a signal that he’s about to make another run at the presidency. Here’s Donald Trump Senior Adviser Dan Scavino, for example:
If Mitt Romney is not making another attempt to run for POTUS- wonder why he filed with the FEC ON 2/1/2016? pic.twitter.com/YiCo9YtNhZ

Sorry Dan — and everyone else. The form was filed because of an address change for the political consulting firm, Red Curve Solutions, LLC. See the “X” in the box marked “Check if address is changed”?
To be clear, Romney not filing to run for president. Form filed to reflect address change: https://t.co/OtmIjwf0KD https://t.co/EP7dc6IzNJ

Bradley Crate, CEO of Red Curve Solutions, confirmed it as well and noted all of the firm’s clients filed the same form with the FEC:
@Clarknt67 @BillHumphreyMA same form that has been filed for 9 years, @RedCurvSolution moved. I look forward to the housewarming gift

@BillHumphreyMA @Clarknt67 @RedCurvSolution much 2 do about nothing. A form 2 is the official form for candidacy not the form 1

@Clarknt67 @BillHumphreyMA far from it. I guess @RedCurvSolution 300 other clients who filed the same form are running for #POTUS as well?

Will Donald Trump’s adviser now correct his tweet?
