Sen. Kelly says "of course" Harris would certify election if Trump won
Democratic Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly said “of course” Vice President Kamala Harris would certify the election results even if former President Donald Trump wins.
“Yes, of course she would,” he said on “Fox News Sunday,” adding that Trump doesn’t understand “the peaceful transfer of power.”
In her role as president of the Senate, Harris will oversee the certification of the election on Capitol Hill. Kelly contrasted her with Trump, who called on then-Vice President Mike Pence and Congress to refuse to certify the 2020 results when he lost to President Joe Biden and told his supporters to march on the Capitol to stop the proceedings.
“If it turns out that he wins this election, you’re not going to see the same thing from myself and my colleagues, including the vice president. She understands that … you have to peacefully turn over power,” Kelly said.
