A group of Republicans has united to defend the legitimacy of US elections and those who run them
Republican officials who believe in the legitimacy of elections have formed a group that's pushing back on the election lies and conspiracy theories that have persuaded a large share of their party that elections can't be trusted. The main target audience is Republicans who run state and local elections. And the goal is having all election officials reinforce the message that elections across the country are well-run and secure. One aim is to have a structure in place to support election officials who might find themselves targeted by conspiracy theorists and harassment.
