He raised concerns about alleged election manipulation, referring \u200dto previous claims of interference related to the Hunter Biden laptop controversy.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, when the media inquired about Harris&#8217;s\u2062 stance on accepting the election results \u200bif \u2064she were to lose, \u200dthere \u200chas been a notable lack of response. The Federalist \u2063reached\u200c out for clarification but \u2062received no answers from Harris&#8217;s campaign,\u2062 questioning why the media has not\u2062 posed \u2064this critical inquiry to Democrats as they \u200dhave to Republicans.\u2064 The article \u2062points out\u200d that the media&#8217;s focus\u200b seems skewed towards asking conservative figures whether they would accept election \u2064results rather \u200dthan \u200baddressing \u2064similar questions to Democratic\u2063 candidates like Harris. It highlights a broader narrative, mentioning that many Democrats, including prominent figures, \u200chave historically challenged the legitimacy of past election \u2064results. The\u200b discourse raises questions about \u2062media \u200dfairness and the acceptance of electoral outcomes\u200d in a \u2064politically divided environment.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The Pravda press has asked former President Donald Trump over and over again whether he&rsquo;ll accept the results of the election if his Democrat opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, wins. Trump&rsquo;s running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, has heard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jGRzxw3AL9o\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the question<\/a> ad nauseam as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CBS News political correspondent Caitlin Huey-Burns peppered the former president with the question in late August, as the Democratic National Committee was installing Harris as the party&rsquo;s nominee following President Joe Biden&rsquo;s forced exit from his reelection campaign.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Will you accept the results of this election?&rdquo; the reporter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=gTiX_TTAGiM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">asked<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Absolutely. I assume it&rsquo;s going to be a fair election. If it&rsquo;s going to be a fair and free election the answer is absolutely I will,&rdquo; Trump said.<\/p>\n<p>Burns pressed with this ridiculous question. &ldquo;What does fair mean to you?&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It means the votes are counted. It means that votes are fair,&rdquo; Trump said. &ldquo;It means they don&rsquo;t cheat on the election, they don&rsquo;t drop ballots, install new rules and regulations that they don&rsquo;t have the power to do.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>In other words, if leftist activists and Trump-hating elections officials don&rsquo;t <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Rigged-Media-Democrats-Seized-Elections\/dp\/168451259X\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rig<\/a> this election like they did the last one. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;They don&rsquo;t use 51 intelligence agents to give phony reports, which had an affect on the election. They don&rsquo;t do many of the things that they did in the last election,&rdquo; he added, referring to the former intelligence officials who <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/06\/27\/former-intel-officials-who-signed-infamous-hunter-biden-laptop-letter-remain-defiant\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">signed a letter<\/a> insisting the Hunter Biden laptop story reported by the New York Post days before the 2020 presidential election was &ldquo;Russian disinformation.&rdquo; It was not. It was very real.

Tim Walz, the same question.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Federalist is asking. We sent email requests to both the Harris campaign and the vice president&rsquo;s office asking if she will accept the results of the election if she loses next month to Trump.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As of publication, crickets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Federalist also asked the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nsl4a.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">National Security Leaders for America<\/a> whether their members would accept the results of the election if the former president wins.

John Lewis, D-Ga., <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/storyline\/meet-the-press-70-years\/john-lewis-trump-won-t-be-legitimate-president-n706676\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">told NBC<\/a> News as Trump was taking office amid Democrats&rsquo; cries of &ldquo;Russian interference.&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I think there was a conspiracy on the part of the Russians and others that helped him get elected. That&rsquo;s not right. That&rsquo;s not fair. That&rsquo;s not the open democratic process,&rdquo; he added.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Sour Grapes Hillary said the same, and has kept on saying since.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I believe [Trump] understands that the many varying tactics they used, from voter suppression and voter purging to hacking to the false stories &mdash; he knows that &mdash; there were just a bunch of different reasons why the election turned out like it did,&rdquo; she <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/hillary-clinton-trump-is-an-illegitimate-president\/2019\/09\/26\/29195d5a-e099-11e9-b199-f638bf2c340f_story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">complained<\/a> in a 2019 CBS News interview.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;In fact, the last time Democrats fully accepted the legitimacy of a presidential election they lost was in 1988,&rdquo; wrote The Federalist&rsquo;s editor-in-chief Mollie Hemingway in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Rigged-Media-Democrats-Seized-Elections\/dp\/168451259X\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Rigged: How the Media, Big Tech and the Democrats Seized Our Elections<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>During the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/full-vp-debate-transcript-walz-vance-2024\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">vice presidential debate<\/a> between Vance and Walz,&nbsp; moderator Norah O&rsquo;Donnell demanded Vance answer whether he would &ldquo;seek to challenge this year&rsquo;s election results.&rdquo; She didn&rsquo;t press Walz on whether he would accept the results of a Trump-Vance win.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Walz was given a moment to deliver a &ldquo;can&rsquo;t we all get along&rdquo; speech, insisting that questioning the results of elections must end.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;When this is over, we need to shake hands, this election, and the winner needs to be the winner,&rdquo; the leftist said. &ldquo;This has got to stop. It&rsquo;s tearing our country apart.&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Vance rightly reminded Walz about the hypocrisy of the Democrat Party.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;&hellip;[W]e have to remember that for years in this country Democrats protested the results of elections. Hillary Clinton in 2016 said that Donald Trump had the election stolen by Vladimir Putin because the Russians bought like $500,000 of Facebook ads,&rdquo; Vance said. &ldquo;This has been going on for a long time. And if we want to say we need to respect the results of the election, I&rsquo;m on board. But if we want to say, as Tim Walz is saying, that this is just a problem that Republicans have had, I don&rsquo;t buy that.&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Voters shouldn&rsquo;t buy it, either. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s important to know where the Democrat Party presidential nominee stands less than two weeks before Election Day. So The Federalist is asking.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Vice President Harris, will you accept the results of the election if you lose?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>For more election news and updates, visit&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/electionbriefing.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>electionbriefing.com<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>      Matt Kittle is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/judge-throws-out-leftist-nevada-ags-phony-fake-electors-case\/\" title=\"Judge Throws Out Leftist Nevada AG&#039;s Phony &#039;Fake Electors&#039; Case\">senior elections correspondent<\/a> for The Federalist.
