Josh Hawley Becomes First Senator to Back Plan to Object to Election Vote Counts

Republican Josh Hawley (MO) became the first senator to announce he would back a plan by House GOP members to and object to election vote counts on January 6th.

January 6th is the day that a joint session of Congress will be called and lawmakers officially certify the Electoral College votes.

In a statement posted online, Hawley said he believed states like Pennsylvania failed to follow their own election laws, while social media platforms, like Twitter and Facebook, “interfere[d]” in the election.

“At the very least, Congress should investigate allegations of voter fraud and adopt measures to secure the integrity of our elections,” he said.

In a sane world, this would be a reasonable request.

“For these reasons, I will follow the same practice Democrat members of Congress have in years past and object during the certification process on January 6 to raise these critical issues,” explained Hawley.

...

Josh Hawley becomes the first, and thus far only, Republican Senator to join opposition to the election results from a group of Trump loyalists in the House.

President Trump last week hosted a group of House Republicans who have promised to challenge the election results in Congress.

I'm guessing Mitchie is really steamed - he wants all the GOP Senators to bow down before China Joe and The Ho!

Where are Cruz, Blackburn, and Paul? Surely they will join the objection.

Please watch your back, Sen. Hawley!

We don’t wish you to die suddenly of COVID or have a sudden and fatal reaction to the vaccination or be involved in a car explosion where the engine is launched 350 feet (happens all the time) or killed in a robbery where nothing is taken or suicided by two bullets to the back of the head.

Yes, that was my thought, as well.

There’s one willing but how many others have declared as of yet? It may take more than just one, or two or three or even 15 Senators.

This is good news, but who is to say that Pelosi and or McConnell will follow the Constitution and allow debates and votes?

On January 6th, the Congressional proceedings NEED to open with objections from the House and Senate to ANY acceptance of electors from states utilizing the Dominion voting systems. Dominion voting systems are a national security threat to the USA

This forces the debate over their integrity to the floor of the Congress and instantly defines the traitors and the patriots in the room
