Description | Democrats are denouncing Republicans' now-confirmed meddling in next month's primary for Senate in North Carolina after it was revealed that a top GOP super PAC aligned with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell funded an outside group that spent millions to boost a liberal candidate over national Democrats' preferred contender.
Faith and Power PAC, a super PAC that formed earlier this year, has spent nearly $3 million boosting state Sen. Erica Smith, who is running in the primary against Cal Cunningham, a veteran and former state senator backed by the Senate Democrats' official campaign arm. The two are running in a five-person primary to face GOP Sen. Thom Tillis in November. |
