Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) dodged a question on Sunday about whether he would accept the Alaska Senate election results if Democrat Mary Peltola wins her race against Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska), according to a report by Tara Suter of The Hill.
The Hill reported that the exchange took place during an interview on NBC News's Meet the Press, where host Kristen Welker asked the South Carolina Republican about possibly accepting the Alaska results. The outlet's summary of the report breaks off partway through that question, so the full wording of Welker's question is not available in the material used for this story.
The Hill said Scott dodged the question. Its summary does not describe the substance of any answer he gave, and it does not say whether he addressed the outcome directly at any point in the interview.
The Alaska contest pits Peltola, a Democrat, against Sullivan, a Republican. The Hill's summary does not include polling, vote totals, or other details about the race.
This account relies on a single source, The Hill, and makes no further claims beyond what that outlet's summary reports.
