"As with many conspiracy theories, QAnon started on the fringe of society in online message boards and other sites.

However, QAnon is starting to drift more and more mainstream following a number of high-profile primary wins by candidates who have shown support for the theory.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is the latest person who looks certain to take a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives after beating her opponent Dr. John Cowan in the heavily Republican Georgia's 14th Congressional District, having publicly backed the conspiracy theory.

QAnon, which originated on infamous online message board site 4Chan, centers around an unfounded claim that Donald Trump is waging a secret war against the "deep state" and high-profile Satan-worshipping pedophiles.

Supporters of the theory say the claims stem from a person or person known as "Q" who has knowledge about security clearance within the U.S. government.

Here are a number of candidates who have shown some support for QAnon.
