It is sometimes surprising, even to its editors, that the Spy over the last ten years has a robust news archive, particularly on our YouTube channel, on what 1st District Congressman Andy Harris has said over the years on several subjects.
In today’s case, we thought we would share the Spy’s Dave Wheelan’s question in late September to Representative Harris regarding President Trump’s willingness to accept the 2020 presidential election results.
Given the recent events in Washington today, we thought it relevant with our readers tonight.
This video is approximately one minute in length.
Steve Beard says
Boy! This guy is wrong on all counts!
As of today, January 6, 2021, Donald Trump has still not accepted the election results and has further incited those who agree with him to violence. Not a ridiculous question at all was it?
According to all news reports that I can find, Hillary Clinton accepted the results of the 2016 election the next day and officially conceded defeat.
I hope to move to Chestertown in the next few years and hope to work to get this guy out of congress.
I am very impressed with the quality of the articles in the Chestertown Spy which I read to learn about my future home. Thanks for getting this smug, arrogant jerk on video and presenting it.
Keep up the good work!
Deirdre LaMotte says
Disgusting man. He displays his arrogance with pride. What a sad human being and always has been since his attacks on Wayne Gilgreast’s brother having a gay partner. I so do hope after today’s horrible Trump
rebellion in WDC Trump encouraged , along with Harris, both men are History. And not treated well. Good bye!
The people who support this obscene person are a threat to our nation. He acts like an ass who knows gerrymandering is working and keeping him in power on our dime. Though this creep out!!
Tom Steele says
And even after the stomach-turning events of yesterday, Harris still objected to the certification of the election. He objected not out of any concern for the integrity of the results (there is no evidence of widespread voter fraud – NONE), but out of fealty to one man – the very man whose seditious act sent a mob of insurrectionists to the US Capitol.
The eastern shore is poorly served by this shameful man.
Carla Massoni says
I encourage moderate Republicans to identify a candidate that moderate Democrats can support. With Harris none of us have representation.
Elizabeth Hollomon says
Thanks for showing this video. In the next election, I hope we have a candidate who is not so ill-informed, lacking in judgment, and represents more moderate views.
Ed Minch says
Of course he will accept the election results, but I won’t.
Nancy Balliet says
Hindsight being 20-20, perhaps Harris should have been asked whether he himself would support the results of the election and an orderly transfer of power since, just yesterday, he voted to toss the certified election results of Arizona and Pennsylvania. Shocking only because he does so little in the House.
We can do better, let’s do better than re-elect Andy Harris as our representative in Congress. He represents only himself, as it it.
Chris Whitney says
I just finished asking Congressman Harris via his web site whether he still feels that the question put to him was “ridiculous”. In case he has forgotten the interview, I sent him a link…… I look forward to his response.
Gren Whitman says
Harris should eat his words.
John Ramsey says
Whoever runs against Harris in the next election needs to have access to this video.
