Republican JD Vance, who has asserted that the 2020 presidential race was stolen from Donald Trump, said he trusts the integrity of Ohio elections and he’d accept the results if he loses the U.S. Senate race in the state to his Democratic opponent, Representative Tim Ryan.
“I expect to win,” Vance, who’s been endorsed by Trump, said at a Fox News town hall in Columbus on Tuesday. “But, of course, if things don’t go the way that I expect, I’ll support the guy who wins and I’ll try to be as as supportive as I possibly can.”
Supporters of Trump’s false claims that the 2020 election was rigged and stolen are running for key state and federal offices, in some cases pledging to take action against future results that don’t go their way.
