McConnell: Pelosi trying to 'overturn a state-certified election' in Iowa By Jordain Carney - 03/18/21 12:52 PM EDT
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) lashed out at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday over an investigation into a razor-thin House election.
“Right now as we speak, Speaker Pelosi and Washington Democrats are literally trying to overturn a state-certified election here in Congress. That’s exactly what they’re doing over in the House right now,†McConnell said on the Senate floor.
McConnell’s comments come as the House Administration Committee is digging into the election results in Iowa’s 2nd Congressional District where Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-Iowa) won by six votes.
“The outcome was certified. That’s the magic word, certified, that we heard over and over again in November and December. ... the process played out in a way that every liberal in America spent November, December and January insisting was beyond question,†McConnell said.
Miller-Meeks’s victory was certified by Iowa in late November and she was sworn in in early January.
