Republican operatives launch new group supporting Biden
Read full article: Republican operatives launch new group supporting Biden(CNN) -- A group of Republican operatives has launched a new super PAC to help turn out disaffected GOP voters for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, Matt Borges, a founder of the group, confirmed to CNN. The group will focus on data, targeting and turnout, and does not have plans to run television or radio ads. Borges said the group will work to turn out "that group of Republicans who feels that Donald Trump is an existential threat to the country and this party." In May, a group called Republican Voters Against Trump launched a $10 million ad campaign targeting GOP-leaning voters in top swing states to encourage them to support Biden. And a group of Never Trump Republicans formed the Lincoln Project in late 2019 and have run negative ads that have drawn the ire of Trump.
