U.S. Senator Marco Rubio, an ally of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, will not accept the results of the Nov. 5 election if they are “unfair,” he said on Sunday.

“Will you accept the election results of 2024, no matter what happens, senator?” NBC News’ “Meet the Press” host Kristen Welker asked Rubio, a Florida Republican, in an interview.

“No matter what happens? No,” Rubio answered. “If it’s an unfair election, I think it’s going to be contested by either side.”

Trump and his allies are laying the groundwork to contest a potential loss in November, stoking doubts about the election’s legitimacy even as polls show the former president leading in battleground states, Reuters reported on Thursday.

    The article clearly states that you are wrong.

      Where does it provide evidence to support that statement?

      Edit: Lol, I’m seeing downvotes, but nobody brave enough to show where the article provides evidence to support their assertion. Despite what republicans want you to believe, we do not live in a post-truth world, so supporting evidence is required.

      We’d all be going to town if this were a right-wing media piece this poorly sourced. Don’t allow yourself the hypocrisy of double standards when you have the moral high ground.
