John McCain's widow says it's time for Trump to 'accept the results and get on with the healing'
Cindy McCain, philanthropist and wife of late Republican Sen. John McCain, said she was "proud of the voters in Arizona" for showing up in record numbers and urged the Trump administration to "accept the results and get on with the healing we need."
"We turned out in record numbers, through vote by mail, same day drop off ballots and voting in person on Election Day," McCain said in a statement Thursday. "We demonstrated in Arizona that, even in a pandemic, we will turn out in droves to participate in electing our leaders, obey the rules and take pride in the execution of our democracy."
"This was a hard fought election but now that the votes are counted, it is time to do the work of uniting our state and our country," McCain added. "Arizonans should not be trying to cast doubt on the legitimate outcome of this race. The race in this state is not close enough to meet the legal standard for a recount, so we should accept the results and get on with the healing we need."
McCain also alluded to President Donald Trump's campaign, which has filed lawsuits in several battleground states to contest election results that favor President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.
