Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) is declaring that Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden “deserves a Cabinet” if he wins the 2020 presidential election.
The South Carolina senator told reporters on Friday that he ran his reelection campaign on two things: “To be a reliable vote to stop the most radical agenda being pushed by [House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.)] and others in the history of the United States” and “[reaching] across the aisle.”
He added, “When it comes to finding common ground, I will do that.”
“The vice president deserves a Cabinet, I’ll give him my input about who I could vote for as secretary of state, attorney general… There may be some people that I just can’t vote for because I think they’re unqualified or too extreme,” Graham continued.
Graham noted though, “I’m not conceding he’s going to win.”

Biden stopped short of declaring victory, and there has not been a final call on the election. He, did, however, express confidence in a win, as IJR reported.
“My fellow Americans, we don’t have a final declaration of victory yet, but the numbers tell a clear and convincing story: We are going to win this race,” he said in a speech Friday evening.
As of Saturday morning, the control of the Senate has yet to be made known. However, Democrats in the House of Representatives are on track for a narrower majority.
Biden holds the lead in the presidential election with 253 electoral votes while President Donald Trump has 214 electoral votes, of the 270 needed to win the White House, as of 8:30 a.m. EST Saturday.
