Talk that Pelosi, and McConnell are in the process of attempting to change the rules for counting/certifying the electors as we speak. That's how huge the Hawley objection is.

“Or they could just be trying to keep down protest attendance on Jan 6.”

People might be so pissed, it’ll have the opposite effect.

Consider the source -- one not even yet congressperson, thought be some not to be 100% there, saying "word on the hill is" -- at least double hearsay. Plus, as several others have said already, law is pretty clear.

I would call clickbait, and ask the worried ones above to check back on Jan 6. If one Sen and one Rep object, there WILL be votes in each house, just as happened in 2004.

Why did Hawley state this publicly anyway???

Courage is contagious. Well, in most places it is. Dunno about the hallowed halls of Congress; we shall see.

Sure hope you’re right - but I wouldn’t put ANYTHING past McConnell OR Pelosi.

We will too! My husband emailed Sen. Hawley a couple of weeks ago encouraging him to object. We are so grateful to have him instead of McCaskill!

Tommy Tuberville had already said he was going to do it before Hawley. Now the whole world knows what Mitch and Nan are up to.

That's how huge the Hawley objection is

SO huge it can be swatted away by huge bipartisan majorities? THAT'S how huge it is?
