TL;DR Summary

Tom Emmer, a leading Republican candidate for speaker of the House, cast doubt on the 2020 presidential election by suggesting "questionable" practices and baselessly claiming that mail-in ballots may have skewed the outcome against Trump. Emmer signed an amicus brief supporting a Texas lawsuit seeking to throw out the results in swing states won by Biden. While he ultimately voted to certify the results, Emmer's comments and actions aligned with election denial rhetoric. He criticized the media for calling the race and emphasized the importance of following the process, even after results were certified. The Texas lawsuit was rejected by the Supreme Court.
