Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) on Sunday indicated that she would not rule out objecting to the 2024 presidential election results, saying that it will depend on whether this year’s election is “legal and valid.”

Three years ago, on Jan. 6, 2021, Ms. Stefanik joined the 146 members of Congress to vote against certifying electoral votes from at least one state where election integrity was called into question by supporters of President Donald Trump. Many of them had gathered for the president’s speech at the “Stop the Steal” rally near the White House and, later that day, went on to a preapproved protest at the U.S. Capitol, leading to its breach and subsequent delay of the certification of the 2020 presidential election.
