That will be a "lie" even the alternative media will end up having to swallow then.
Roll Call, PJ Media, NBC and every other "news" source say the following:
Senate Republicans have unanimously elected Mitch McConnell to be majority leader.
"There was no drama heading into the vote, as no one challenged the Kentucky Republican for leadership after the party’s triumph in last week’s midterm elections.
Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Mike Lee (R-Utah) and Rand Paul (R-Ky.) voted for McConnell, and the new majority leader got a standing ovation inside the caucus room.
Sen. Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire nominated McConnell, according to a GOP source inside the room, and Sen.-elect Tom Cotton of Arkansas gave a seconding speech. He won a voice vote without opposition and was treated to a standing ovation.
Sen. John Cornyn of Texas was likewise selected, by voice vote without contention, as the party’s whip. He was nominated by Sen. Patrick J. Toomey of Pennsylvania and seconded by Sen. Susan Collins of Maine."
Until and unless Cruz and Lee say they voted for McConnell (on a voice vote) I won't believe it.
The media and politicians lie. Most people know that, unless they are vested in a particular outcome.
