Democratic group launches super PAC targeting election deniers running for state and local offices

(CNN) -- A Democratic group is launching a new super PAC that its leaders say will target Republican election deniers running for key state and local offices this year.

The new group, called Bridge to Democracy, will have an initial budget of at least $10 million to influence races for positions that oversee election administration in key states. The new organization is a project of American Bridge 21st Century, a leading Democratic group focused on researching political opponents in the Republican Party.

The group already has assigned 22 researchers to begin examining the records and backgrounds of candidates in a dozen states, American Bridge President Jessica Floyd told CNN in an interview Tuesday night.

The new effort comes as former President Donald Trump's allies have focused on election positions in key states, ranging from secretary of state positions all the way down to the local level.
