Rep. Elise Stefanik Declines To Commit To Certifying 2024 Election Results
HuffPost
The New York Republican said she will only vote to certify the 2024 election results if they are “constitutional.”
Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) declined to commit to certifying the 2024 presidential election results during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday.
“We will see if this is a legal and valid election,” Stefanik said when asked by host Kristen Welker if she would vote to certify the 2024 election results. “What we’re seeing so far is that Democrats are so desperate they’re trying to remove President Trump from the ballot. That is suppression of the American people and the Supreme Court is taking that case up in February. That should be a 9-0 to allow President Trump to appear on the ballot because that’s the American people’s decision to make this November.”
She then told Welker that she would only vote to certify the 2024 election results if they were “constitutional.”
Stefanik, who chairs the House Republican Conference, is a strong Trump supporter and has supported his false claims of fraud in the 2020 election.
