Just talked to my rep’s office (Cliff Stearns, FL good guy conservative). The “rules” say that, because Hoffman conceded, Pelosi could confirm Owens even though NY hasn’t announced him as winner yet. Hoffman conceded because the tallies that had come in had him losing by MANY thousands of votes... BECAUSE SEVERAL DISTRICTS IN NEW YORK FAILED TO SEND HOFFMAN’S VOTES WHEN THEY SENT THE RESULTS. Those districts only reported Owens’ votes and reported Hoffman as zero. When they realized their mistake the districts sent the correct results — AFTER Hoffman conceded. He cannot “unconcede” and we can’t get the healthcare bill overturned because apparently it was all according to the rules. If Hoffman turns out with more votes, he’ll be the new rep and Owens will be gone. What a mess.

Our entire nation is a mess! Time to literally kick the leftists into the Potomac and see if any can swim.

This nation has to be taken over by a responsible force that will look out for the majority and look upon what comprised our Congress as being traitorous dogs!
