fivethirtyeight.com's track record is, as always, superb. Today, the site tells us that:
election denialism has become rampant in the U. S.
candidates who support Donald Trump’s claim that the 2020 election was stolen will appear on ballots in nearly every state this fall
Take advantage of 538's efforts to determine the position on the 2020 election of every Republican nominee for the House, Senate, governor, secretary of state and attorney general in every state. Then, as frosting on the cake, use the internal app the Kings of Stats have provided to see whether Republicans running in your area have denied the legitimacy of the 2020 election. Your iuquiry, and its results, can be sorted by state and office.

finds two things extraordinarily disturbing about this de facto
roll-call.
Of the 18 candidates reviewed, 10 were full-on deniers
Of those, nine were rated as almost certain to be re-elected
Thankfully, neither Mastriano nor Oz belong to that last cohort. But don't get cocky; if
ever there were an argument for getting out the vote, 538's tabulation
is it. Use the tools provided by the site to determine what candidates, especially those for your Congressional district, really believe.
