GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) called on President Trump begin the transition process to a Joe Biden administration and decried what she called a "pressure campaign" mounted on state legislators by allies of the president to stop the results from being certified.

In a statement Sunday evening that came minutes after members of the Trump campaign announced the departure of Sidney Powell from the legal team, Murkowski said that the president's claims had been found by multiple judges to be "without merit."

"A pressure campaign on state legislators to influence the electoral outcome is not only unprecedented but inconsistent with our democratic process," Murkowski said in the statement released through Twitter.

"It is time to begin the full and formal transition process," the Alaska senator concluded.
