David Boies and Ted Olson represented the opposing sides in Bush v. Gore in 2000 and have written a Washington Post op-ed:

"SNIP....

“We still don’t agree about how the Supreme Court ruled, but we completely agree that nothing in that case — or in the Supreme Court’s decision — supports the challenges now being thrown about in an attempt to undermine President-elect Joe Biden’s victory.”

 “Yet, over the past week, we have heard repeated assertions that the outcome of this election is somehow in doubt, as it was in 2000.”

 “It is not. Biden will be president. There are many areas of policy on which we disagree. But no matter how you voted in this election, that is the clear outcome. The nation’s laws and shared values dictate that Americans now unite to support democracy, national security, the public trust in institutions and the urgent work of the next administration.”

....SNIP"
