"Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA) was one of the candidates running for the Senate seat vacated by the late Dianne Feinstein, but she lost the jungle primary to fellow House Democrat from California Rep. Adam Schiff and Republican candidate Steve Garvey. After it was all over, she blamed a “rigged” election for her loss — because her opponents ran attack ads against her.

After her initial comment, Porter put out a statement doubling down that the election was “rigged,” but tried to clarify she was contesting the vote count:

“Rigged” means manipulated by dishonest means. A few billionaires spent $10 million+ on attack ads against me, including an ad rated “false” by an independent fact checker. That is dishonest means to manipulate an outcome. I said “rigged by billionaires” and our politics are — in fact — manipulated by big dark money. Defending democracy means calling that out. At no time have I ever undermined the vote count and election process in CA, which are beyond reproach."
