Here’s a look at how the other candidates who have endorsed the Big Lie are doing tonight. Keep in mind that many of the incumbents (those with an * next to their name) are included in our list because they voted not to certify some of the results of the 2020 election, though they may not have been particularly vocal about it since Jan 6.

*Incumbent.

Candidates marked as having “denied legitimacy” of the 2020 election either explicitly said Donald Trump’s loss or the 2020 election itself was illegitimate or, if an elected official, took legal measures to try to overturn the election. Candidates marked as “raised doubts” have questioned the fairness of the 2020 election or made references to “election integrity” but have not explicitly said the election or Trump’s loss was illegitimate.
