Republican Rep. Tom Rice of South Carolina said in an interview on Wednesday that he regretted voting against certifying the electoral votes of Arizona and Pennsylvania after the January 6 storming of the Capitol.

"In retrospect I should have voted to certify," Rice told Politico's Olivia Beavers. "Because President Trump was responsible for the attack on the Capitol."

According to Politico, this makes him the first of the 147 House Republicans who voted against certifying the election results to publicly express regret over the vote.
