Okay, then...

Oklahoma Republican Sen. James Lankford apologized to his black constituents for challenging President-elect Joe Biden’s victory, saying that he failed to recognize that his actions casted “doubt on the validity of votes” in majority black cities like Milwaukee, Detroit and Philadelphia.
Lankford, who originally joined a group of senators led by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz that said they would object to Biden’s victory unless Congress launched a commission to audit the results, ultimately withdrew his objection after being trapped in the Capitol during the riot on Jan. 6.
“My action of asking for more election information caused a firestorm of suspicion among many of my friends, particularly in Black communities around the state,” Lankford wrote, Tulsa World first reported.
“I can assure you, my intent to give a voice to Oklahomans who had questions was never also an intent to diminish the voice of any Black American,” he added. “I should have recognized how what I said and what I did could be interpreted by many of you. I deeply regret my blindness to that perception, and for that I’m sorry.”
Several Republicans, including President Donald Trump and his lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, have baselessly alleged that voter fraud in cities like Milwaukee, Detroit, Philadelphia and Atlanta swung the states to Biden, despite the fact that courts and state officials have found no evidence of widespread voter fraud.
Cruz and Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley, the two senators who led objections to Arizona and Pennsylvania’s elections, respectively, have faced massive backlash. Local newspapers in their states have called on them to resign, and Hawley’s cooperation led publisher Simon and Schuster to cancel his upcoming book, a move that Hawley described as “Orwellian.”

Couldn’t he be called a cuck?
Right now the Republican Party pretty well disgusts me.
Not here.
‘cuck’ is a banned term on FR.
“Right now the Republican Party pretty well disgusts me.”
Then change your party affiliation. I recently notified my Board of Elections and they changed mine.
It appears black people have a pass to cheat.
Hey, James? A lot of black votes were switched to Biden too. Here in Fulton County 900 absentee votes from our military, all for Biden?
Stuffing the ballot box by Democrats has effectively disenfranchised inner-city voters for generations.
Blacks aren’t voting for this stupidity at 90/10% splits.
If you think that... you’re the racist.
What a feckless loser.
I tried to email Marsha Blackburn and tell her to apologize, too, but her email isn’t accepting my submission. I guess that once she betrayed America she turned her back on her constituents in every way.
Wanting to find the truth causes a firestorm, got it. He lasted 9,10 days-so close.
Why only black constituents?
Then change your party affiliation. I recently notified my Board of Elections and they changed mine.
I'm staying a Republican so I can vote out my RINO rep in the primary.
I’m staying a Republican just long enough to vote out Marsha Blackburn and Kustoff in their respective primaries. If either of them wins their primary, then come the general election, I will leave the ballot blank. I won’t vote Democrat, but I will not vote for Blackburn or Kustoff either.
Philadelphia and Milwaukee aren’t majority black, are they?
“I’m staying a Republican so I can vote out my RINO rep in the primary.”
Voting will mean nothing when the Biden group take office. Have you forgotten Dominion machine manipulations?
Okay, then...
If voting will mean nothing then why re-register at all? Just have your name eliminated from the voting list.
Just got my new card the other day.
Weird thing is I had verify myself online by SS# and driver’s license.
Yet an illegal can just walk into a poll in this state and vote by “provisional ballot”, which, odder yet, is exactly what I was given on Nov 3 in the new “community polling place”, which is NOT where I vote, ever, despite having been registered since 1979.
The man is a craven coward. Oklahoma deserves better.
