Oversight Chair Comer slams Ranking member Raskin as a 'hypocrite' over election certification

 "Ranking member Raskin is the ultimate hypocrite," Comer said in an interview with Fox News Digital.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., slammed Ranking member Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., for not being clear about whether or not he would certify the election if GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump wins in 2024.

"Now ranking member Raskin is signaling he’d do the same if Trump wins again in November," Comer stated.

Comer proceeded to call Raskin an "election denier" and mentioned that the Maryland Democrat didn't vote to certify the election when Trump won in 2016.

Raskin said in an interview with Axios published Thursday that if Trump wins the election free and fair, he would "obviously accept it" but he said that Trump would not employ "free, fair and honest means" to win the White House.

Raskin alleged that Trump was trying to interfere with the election process by "manipulating electoral college counts in Nebraska or manipulating the vote count in Georgia or imposing other kinds of impediments."

He only cares about putting a Democrat in the White House whatever the cost."
