Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., said Sunday that he would accept the 2024 election results and would vote to certify the results in 2025, just as he did in 2020.
“I don’t think Congress has the constitutional authority to reject electors that have been certified by a state,” Cotton said on NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”
He added, “I will accept the results of the election and certify them if it’s a fair and a free election.”
Cotton is rumored to be on the shortlist as a potential vice presidential pick for former President Donald Trump.
Asked whether he would accept an invitation to serve as Trump’s running mate, Cotton said he hadn’t spoken to Trump or his campaign about it, but added, “Any great patriot, if offered a chance to serve our country by the president, would have to consider it seriously.”
