Growing number of GOP lawmakers back Electoral College challenge
By Jordan Williams - 12/22/20 02:28 PM EST

A growing number of House Republicans say they will challenge the results of the 2020 presidential election when Congress meets to certify the Electoral College results on Jan. 6.

The latest Republican to say he will do so is Rep.-elect Madison Cawthorn (N.C.), who will be a part of the House when it convenes in early January.

He implored other Republicans to also challenge the results in a video message.

“I have a message for all other Republicans across the country,” Cawthorn said. “If you are not on the record calling for fair, free and just elections now and in the future, I will come to your district and I will fund a primary opponent against you.”

Conservatives need to stand up and be counted.

The days of RINO hiding is over.

There needs to be a measurable metric.

Not going to make one bit of difference of who's counted ... we already knew who the RINO's were and yet once again they got re-elected.  No worries.  Were not going to see another legitimate election worth voting in and certainly another GOP won't be seated, ever.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Rep. Ted Budd
@RepTedBudd


Yes, I plan to object on January 6th.

MILLIONS of Americans saw what I saw:

- Voter safeguards removed
- No signature verification
- Outdated voter rolls
- Ballots accepted after Election Day
- Poll watchers denied access
 
#WeThePeople will keep fighting for @realDonaldTrump

The House Republicans are in the minority, so what can they possibly do?  Nothing to my knowledge.

And there are enough RINOs to shut down anything done on Trump's behalf.

There is no chance Mr. Trump will prevail on "the objection" in the House.

The only chance he could have is in the Senate. But I don't expect him to "win" there, either.

HOWEVER...
Even if only one Senator rises to "object", that will force a vote that puts EVERYONE "on the record". Same thing in the House.

I want to see these turncoat "Republicans" reveal themselves for the spineless trash they are. Each and every one of them!
