Two Georgia Representatives to Challenge Electoral College Votes
Georgia Star News ^ | December 27, 2020 | Corinne Murdock

Two of Georgia’s representatives plan to challenge the Electoral College votes during the January 6th session of Congress. Representative Jody Hice (R-GA-10) and Representative-elect Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA-14) will join a congressional coalition in objecting the electoral college votes.

Hice met with the President Donald Trump to strategize their objection to the Electors earlier this week. Others in the meeting included Trump’s legal team, Vice President Mike Pence, members of the House Freedom Caucus, Greene, and several other congressional members.

The House Freedom Caucus, or Freedom Caucus, is a coalition of conservative Republicans in the U.S. House. In addition to Hice, current members include Representatives Andy Biggs (R-AZ-05), Chip Roy (R-TX-21), Ted Budd (R-NC-13), Warren Davidson (R-OH-06), Jeff Duncan (R-SC-03), Michael Cloud (R-TX-27), Ralph Norman (R-SC-05), Scott Perry (R-PA-10), Steve King (R-IA-04), Randy Weber (R-TX-14), Dr. Paul Gosar (R-AZ-04), Dr. Ted Yoho (R-FL-03), and Louie Gohmert (R-TX-01).

Greene has also stated that she plans to challenge the results repeatedly.

“The media obsessively investigated and cried [‘]Russian collusion[‘] for 4 years,” tweeted Greene. “The same media refuses to investigate and report the 2020 stolen election. On Jan 6th, Americans will be shocked at what has occurred. And outraged at those who are willing to turn a blind eye.”

During the January 6th session, Congress members may object to the results offered by each state as they are announced. An objection must be signed by at least one senator and one representative.

Each objection will be considered during a recess period, in which the House and Senate will convene amongst themselves to debate and vote on the objection. These meetings are limited to two hours; each individual may speak only once, and not for more than five minutes. In order for a state’s electoral votes to be rejected, majority votes must arise...

Good news. Now we need Senators, maybe Rand Paul, Ted Cruz and Tom Cotton among others.

My understanding is all that’s needed to create a 2 hour debate is one member from each body. There are situations where the voting becomes irrelevant and Pence actually decides.

We do need the two hour debate and voting if that’s in the rules. This is needed to see who the real backstabbers are.

From what I’ve read, both the
house and senate have to agree
on the outcome. This is where
information about the steal is
introduced. The house and senate
must adjourn for 2 hours (for
each objection) to either agree
or disagree with the objection.
If the house can be convinced
that fraud did occur, that vote
is not counted. The vote count
could be drawn out for days,
depending on how many objections
are raised. I think this is why
Mitch is discouraging any
objections from the senate. That,
and I believe he’s got a few
skeletons in his closet.
