Scott Franklin has not publicly weighed in on Refusal to Express Regret for Voting to Overturn the 2020 Election

Scott Franklin has accepted documented donations from sectors with material interests in "Refusal to Express Regret for Voting to Overturn the 2020 Election" but has no public statement, vote, or hearing record on the topic. Expected position: As a sitting member of Congress, Franklin would be expected to clarify whether he stands by his January 6, 2021 vote to object to the certification of Arizona and Pennsylvania electoral votes — a defining vote that 147 Republicans cast in the hours after the Capitol attack. Most Americans, including many Republicans, expect their representatives to acknowledge when election challenges were factually baseless. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: PoliScore's February 2026 Congressional Auditor profile states Franklin 'voted to overturn certified 2020 election results and still refuses to say he regrets that choice, which raises real concerns about how he treats election rules.' The Republican Accountability Project notes Franklin objected 'based on lies about the validity of the results.' Despite years of media inquiries, Franklin has never issued a statement clarifying or walking back his objection. During this window, he was active on other election-related issues — supporting the SAVE Act voter ID requirements and introducing legislation — but never revisited the 2020 election question.
