Were there any nominees that acknowledged that the election was lawful?

Perhaps more revealing would be this: how many nominees weren't nominated at all because they didn't deny the election? The world may never know.
Your point makes me wonder: If you're a candidate who still believes in the rule of law and hates the regime currently occupying the government, wouldn't you also just be evasive when asked about your loyalty to the 2020 lie? Just keep your mouth shut until you get to that bench, and then return to being a just interpreter of the law...
That was basically my point. The choice probably was already made by the nomination, and the senate had no way to demonstrate that they would confirm for other reasons as well.
