NEW: Senator Tom Cotton says he will support a commission to study the 2020 election and propose reforms, but will not oppose the counting of certified electoral votes because “the Founders entrusted our elections chiefly to the states—not Congress.”

I think a lot of Freepers ought to sit down and ask themselves what the hell they expect to gain by having Congress overturn the Electoral College vote in a presidential election. This cuts both ways, folks. Look at the misfits that fill the halls of Congress and tell me how much confidence you have that this bunch of corrupt @ssholes would EVER do the right thing in any matter of national importance.

Good point, except it will only work one way. Democrats will do what they want, with the full support of all major institutions in the country and the World.

“Another Deep Stater outed.

Works for me.”

Ditto that. Extra good when they out themselves with traitor style decisions like this. Saves time.

Senator Cotton is Constitutionally correct. This whole fiasco could have and should have been fixed by state legislatures.

Laws should be passed in these individual states that all early votes must be counted and verified as they arrive. Not on election day.

What an idiot! What dies he think is going to be dealt with if this is NOT stopped right now?
The dems have been doing this for decades. They have gotten it down to a science now. SO much so that I bet that at least 1/2 -2/3 of the states had this same problem, but the states already called for Trump did not feel he need to investigate and the blue states, well...what good would that do, except that Trump’s numbers likely were much higher.

That introduces a whole new set of problems -- with ballots that are reviewed and "corrected" by partisan election officials who are willing to send invalid ballots back to one set of voters for correction, but not another.

A better approach would be to ditch the whole idea of mail-in voting and early voting entirely. Hold elections over a single 24-hour day or a 48-hour period covering two calendar dates, and that's it.

If you can't drag your ass to a polling location, then you just can't vote. It's that simple.

That goes for the military, too. Set up polling stations at military bases overseas, if necessary.

Thanks. LOL. That’s been the story on almost every thread where I’ve posted that sentiment.

An explanation why martial law is dumb is needed?

Why would anyone assume turning over the country to the military is a good idea for starters?

People are literally babbling thinking they would listen to any civilian.

Thank you so much for your kind words. Makes those long nights at the computer worth it. Honored that you would send it to your children. The lad in the cover shot is out 5th grandchild.
Losing the battle ahead in not an option!
Again, thank you & be well and safe as the turmoil after Trump returns to the WH will make the earlier “trouble” seem tame!

Cotton is trying to sweep this takeover of our country under the rug. He has always been a communist sympathizer.
