Exclusive: Rep. August Pfluger Introduces Bill to Ban Vote Counting After Election DayBradley Jaye 17 Jan 2025
Rogue Democratic strongholds in states like California will no longer continue counting votes for weeks past Election Day, if a new bill by Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX) becomes law.
Pfluger introduced the Restoring American Confidence in Elections Act following a call from President-elect Donald Trump calling for election vote counts to conclude by 10pm.
“You know, there’s still counting the vote in some areas, can you believe this?” Trump said during a January 7 press conference at Mar-a-Lago.
“We’ve got to fix the elections [so] that we get honest counts and they get done by 10 o’clock in the evening, or something thereabouts,” he added.
Pfluger has answered Trump’s call by introducing his new legislation Thursday.
“The past two elections have been completely unprecedented marked by enormous increases in mail in ballot totals, longer early voting periods, and prolonged certification decisions from states,” Pfluger said in an exclusive statement to Breitbart News.
“As we return to a sense of normalcy with President Trump back in office, it is time we do the same with our elections.”
