'Unbelievable: GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy Challenges Pelosi on Her Effort to Interfere in Iowa's Election Result
Townhall ^ | 03/30/2021 | Cortney O' Brien

GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy knows Rep. Marianette Miller-Meeks (R-IA) is right where she belongs. Meeks won the race in Iowa's second congressional district by just six votes, but a bipartisan canvassing board certified her win. She was sworn into Congress and has begun her new job.

But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is leading Democrats in their mission to unseat her and replace her with Democratic challenger Rita Hart.

GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy sent Pelosi a strongly worded letter that told her to back off and stop manipulating the election process. 

All votes have been counted, recounted, & certified. @RepMMM won her election in #IA02.

Now Democrats are skipping the courts & manipulating this contest in order to steal a seat for their losing candidate.

I just sent this letter to Speaker Pelosi: https://t.co/9ZnfTAR7qr pic.twitter.com/FvXAMVtsSR— Kevin McCarthy (@GOPLeader) March 29, 2021

"You have already begun to manipulate this contest in order a guarantee a win for Contestant Hart, inventing that violates federal law and your own rules," he writes. "Unbelievably, this would require almost nothing from Contestant Hart but would have Congressman Miller-Meeks prove that she won her seat, despite holding a valid election certificate."

"I urge you to put your faith in democracy and dismiss this partisan contest," he said.

Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate agreed and told Pelosi that the voters have spoken.

"Iowans should have the final say in all Iowa elections, not Washington, D.C. politicians," Pate wrote.

Republicans have noted that Democrats are acting hypocritically because on January 6, when some senators objected to President Biden's electoral college certification, Democrats said they were outraged.

I am sure that Peosi is concerned with what the Minority Leader says. The Dem understand power and the use thereof. The GOPe is hot air.

That’s really been the fatal flaw in these circles the last few years: mistaking talk and sternly worded letters for “fighting.”

The rule is: Democrats win all elections.
It’s right in the Penumbra.

Didn’t this guy get the memo?

'Unbelievable: GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy Challenges Pelosi

What is unbelievable is that Pelosi thinks she has the power to overrule the State election results after 2 recounts. ComDems used every trick in the book to steal it and came up short. No matter how close they got, they Lost.

The APPEARANCE of representation and opposition, not the reality.

From that perspective. McCarthy and all of the GOP make perfect sense.

It would be political suicide for Iowa Democrats INC Hart is seated. The town halls in a arts district will fill up and call her a crook to her face. All day and every day.

“Republicans have noted that Democrats are acting hypocritically”

Do they know any other way to act?

As a matter of fact they do - fraudulently!
