Josh Hawley has committed to objecting to the Pennsylvania electors. It’s unclear if he will raise objections to any of the other states. Pennsylvania alone would not be enough to prevent Biden from being selected.
For each state that is being challenged, the two chambers have up to 2 hours to debate and vote. So if multiple states are challenged, the proceeding could easily last all day, and maybe into the following day.
Also, based on precedent, a motion to table debate is not allowed, which means that the Democrats won’t be able to shut down debate and push for a quick vote.
ThankQ for that info!
Prayers UP for all involved!
Oops. I meant to post the following to this thread but accidently posted it to the LS thread. So I’ll repeat:
Just supposing Trump weathers the storm and remains in office for another 4 years, and just supposing Mitch completely destroys his career in the process and loses his position as Senate majority leader, who would be a good candidate to replace him? Josh Hawley? He’s young, but who cares? He’s more trustworthy than most of the others I can think of. Tom Cotton? Marsha Blackburn? If it had to be someone from the old guard, I’m thinking maybe Ron Johnson. He’s far from perfect, but he seems to be solidly in Trump’s camp and would be preferable to Rand Paul or Ted Cruz..
