Trump says he will respect the results of the midterm elections if they are “honest”

# US president Donald Trump says he will respect the outcome of the midterm elections if they are “honest” despite his repeated attacks on the integrity of the voting process. His administration has tried to pressure states to vet their voter rolls for what it alleges are non-citizen voters. Last week, the Justice Department pre-emptively filed a lawsuit challenging the certification of Alaska’s Senate race if the Republican incumbent loses. Trump says he will either reach agreements or veto legislation if Democrats take control of the House and Senate.
