Sorry, a typo in my previous post...

McIntyre was the GOP member who won the race.

McCloskey was the defeated House member who was given his seat back.

In 1985, McCloskey's House vote was 236 to 190 to accept the House Committee report -- after McIntyre, the Republican challenger, had been declared the winner in IN-8 by 34 votes one day after the election, and by 418 votes after a state-ordered recount.

However, unlike Tip O'Neill, Pelosi has made a tactical error -- in '85, the House paid both McCloskey and McIntyre until the Democrat-led House committee released their report and the House voted to accept the report 55%-45% and seat McCloskey.

She has given Miller-Meeks the seat "provisionally", but the way she is trying to jump out of the trial balloon, she's not going to hand Trump a lit match and the gas, to attack Robotox for seating a Democrat who accused her state of electoral fraud.

Suspect Madame Defarge will instruct the House to reject the report (or even kill it in Committee) and instead find Hart a jerb in Resident Xiden's admin like Robotox did for former Rep. Rose (get this : "US Secretary of Defense for COVID-19").
