In this paper we obtain a new fully explicit constant for the Pólya-Vinogradov inequality for squarefree modulus. Given a primitive character χ to squarefree modulus q, we prove the following upper boundwhere c = 1/(2π 2 ) + o(1) for even characters and c = 1/(4π) + o(1) for odd characters, with an explicit o(1) term. This improves a result of Frolenkov and Soundararajan for large q. We proceed via partial Gaussian sums rather than the usual Montgomery and Vaughan approach of exponential sums with multiplicative coefficients. This allows a power saving on the minor arcs rather than a factor of log q as in previous approaches and is an important factor for fully explicit bounds.
