And Eric H. Holder Jr., the former attorney general in the Obama administration, will serve as something of a liaison between the campaign and the many independent groups involved in the legal fight over the election, which is already raging in the courts. “We can and will hold a free and fair election this fall and be able to trust the results,” Ms. Remus said in an interview.
