Nick LaLota and Anthony D’Esposito’s MAGA Extremist Ally Rep. Stefanik Refuses to Commit to Certifying the 2024 Election

Nearly three years to the day after a mob stormed the US Capitol, GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik would not commit to certifying the 2024 presidential election.

Will Nick LaLota and Anthony D’Esposito – who are endorsed by and have fundraised with fellow New Yorker and MAGA extremist ally Stefanik – condemn Stefanik’s dangerous comments refusing to certify the election or will they once again stand by her and Trump?

Make no mistake: Nick LaLota and Anthony D’Esposito’s GOP House leadership and vulnerable House Republicans are still enabling efforts to promote false conspiracy theories and undermine our democracy on Trump’s orders. They will say or do anything to “bend the knee.”

DCCC Spokesperson Ellie Dougherty:
“Nick LaLota and Anthony D’Esposito’s silence on Stefanik’s extremism is dangerous – she and the House Republican caucus, including LaLota and D’Esposito, are totally beholden to Donald Trump and his MAGA cult. LaLota and D’Esposito will no doubt fall in line once again and continue to turn their back on the middle class for the sake of partisan power games.”
