Moore, Cox face off over credibility in Maryland debate

In their first — and likely only — televised debate, Cox was asked by a panelist whether he would accept the outcome of next month's election, noting that he had attended the “Stop the Steal” rally on Jan. 6, 2021, in Washington. Cox said he has “always accepted election results that are fair” but stopped short of saying he would definitely accept next month's outcome.
