Murkowski condemns Trump tweet predicting election fraud: This is not leadership from the White HouseSen. Lisa Murkowski said President Trump is undermining faith in the legitimacy of American democracy by suggesting the 2020 election will be fraudulent.
We want to work to build the faith and in our electoral process, not to undercut it by suggestions that this is a corrupt process, she said. This is not leadership from the White House on this issue.
The president on Thursday wrote a statement on twitter denouncing expanded use of vote by mail.
Even the presidents allies in Congress rejected the presidents suggestions that the election might be fraudulent and should be delayed. Murkowski did too.
Its incredible to me to think that the president would propose that as a response to his view that this is going to be a corrupt election, she said. If hes worried about a corrupt election, then he should be working aggressively with the Congress to make sure that we do not have a corrupt election, that we have a fair election, that we have an election that we as Americans are proud of.
