“Democrats are growing alarmed about Republican attempts to prop up an insurgent liberal candidate in North Carolina — fearful that GOP meddling will undercut the party’s prospects in a key Senate contest,” Politico reports.
“What seems like a generic campaign ad pitching Erica Smith, a North Carolina state senator, as ‘the only proven progressive’ in the state’s high-profile Senate race is actually part of a multimillion dollar investment from a mysterious super PAC — the innocuously named ‘Faith and Power PAC’ — with apparent ties to Republicans.”
