Some top Democrats won't commit to certifying a Trump win | 10 Oct 2024 | House Democrats railed against House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) for hedging on whether a GOP-controlled House would certify a Kamala Harris victory. But some of their senior members are playing a similar game. Those Democrats are trapped between their deep distrust of Donald Trump [even though the 2020 "election" was rigged] and their vigorous denunciations [and prosecutions] of any election challenges in the years since the Jan. 6 attack... Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), the House Oversight Committee ranking member and former Jan. 6 committee member who objected to Trump electors in 2017, told Axios in an interview that if Trump "won a free, fair and honest election, then we would obviously accept it." However, Raskin said he "definitely" doesn't assume that Trump would use free, fair and honest means to secure a victory.
