Retired federal appeals court Judge J. Michael Luttig, a prominent conservative legal scholar appointed by President George H.W. Bush, has made headlines by endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris over former President Donald Trump. This marks the first time Luttig, who has served in two Republican administrations, will be voting for a Democrat.

In a statement obtained exclusively by sources, Luttig expressed his belief that in the upcoming presidential election of 2024, only one candidate can claim to defend and protect America's democracy, constitution, and rule of law. He unequivocally stated his intention to vote for the Democratic Party's candidate, Vice President Kamala Harris.

Luttig believes Harris is the candidate to defend America's democracy, constitution, and rule of law.

Luttig gained attention for his role in advising then-Vice President Mike Pence to certify the 2020 presidential election, despite pressure from Trump to overturn Joe Biden's victory. Since then, Luttig has become a vocal critic of Trump's actions, emphasizing the importance of upholding democratic principles.

By endorsing Harris, Luttig emphasized the need to prioritize safeguarding democracy over partisan differences. He described Trump as 'singularly unfit' for the presidency and stressed the significance of preventing his return to the White House.

While acknowledging potential policy differences with Harris, Luttig underscored that his support for her candidacy is solely based on her commitment to upholding America's democracy, constitution, and rule of law. He urged all Americans to prioritize these fundamental values in the upcoming election.
