Democrat Wes Moore described Republican Dan Cox as “dangerous” for denying the results of the 2020 presidential election during a debate Wednesday in Maryland's governor's race, while Cox said Moore was a “phony" in an hourlong showdown that included frequent attacks on credibility.
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.
