Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-IA) told Breitbart News on Sunday how Rita Hart, her defeated Democrat opponent in November’s election for Iowa’s 2nd Congressional District, is attempting to overturn the election results and disenfranchise Iowa’s voters.
Miller-Meeks explained that her opponent is asking the House Committee on Administration — run by a six-to-three Democrat majority — to overturn the election results. In Iowa’s 2nd Congressional District, 394,439 people voted in the 2020 election, with Miller-Meeks ultimately winning by 6 votes. Hart argues 22 Democrat ballots deemed illegitimate should have been counted, giving her the election.
“They are disenfranchising 400,000 voters,” Miller-Meeks determined. “They are disenfranchising all of these voters by this process.”
“What [my opponent’s campaign] did was avail themselves to a provision of the Constitution that says Congress will seat its members, and appeal to the House Committee on Administration to overturn the election based upon 22 ballots that … in all likelihood would have been rejected by Iowa courts,” Miller-Meeks commented. “That takes it from a campaign election process with election law to a political process and it’s a partisan political process.”
The Des Moines Register reported Hart is asking the Democrat-majority House of Representatives to overturn the certified election results:
But Hart has claimed in a petition filed to the U.S. House of Representatives that 22 legally cast ballots were not counted and could have swayed the outcome of the race. She is asking the Democrat-controlled body to weigh in on the contest and determine its outcome — a move that has drawn the ire of Republicans who argue the issue should be settled in the Iowa courts.

Democrats = thugs.
What more proof do you need that the Dems are fixing elections?
So it’s ok for the dems to try to over turn. Wow. I wonder if they are telling this dem to back off. They don’t want to start doing this.
If this were DJT I could understand being upset. But it’s just dims exercising their rights.
Hey, Pal, all they gotta’ do is print, fill out, and “find” couple hundred ballots. Forget it. You’ve already lost. And ain’t no one gonna’ stop it.
“Well, goooolllly, Mabel, looky here! We just found 20 ballots fallen accidentally behind the radiator!.................”
this is what they do....pubs play the nice patsys and the rats go for the jugular....and they get away with it all the time....I detest them all and their voters....
The “missing ballots” could be getting filled out while the House votes on this, and there would still be bipartisan support.
To paraphrase Stalin, stealing six votes is a tragedy, but stealing millions is just a statistic.
Hi guy.
I hope this doesn’t end in shooting, but my guess is...

There was a time when people were hanged for such things.....................
It will end with a whimper......................... From the right side of the room................
That must have been something.
You are probably correct.
But, I would prefer dying in a pile of brass.

Fixing them , they’ve moved above that and now they just take the seats
Mine makes a rallying cry.
They all claim that Trump and his supporters tried to overturn a valid election and then they go out and try to do the same themselves.
Yep, the rats will soon codify federal election theft.
Once they get the hang and habit of ejecting seated Republicans, there will be no end to it.
