Freshman Congressman Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) Says He Will Contest 2020 Election On January 6
National File ^ | 12/21/2020 | Eduardo Rivero

Representative-Elect Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) has declared that he will contest the electoral college results of the 2020 election during the congressional certification of the results on January 6.

Cawthorn made the announcement at Turning Point USA’s Student Action Summit in West Palm Beach, Florida, where he was delivering a keynote speech.

“In a lot of these liberal swing states, which have liberal Governors and liberal Secretaries of State, you can see they have broken the law and gone against our Constitution in this election,” Madison Cawthorn stated in his speech.

“And because of that, on January 6 – the people of western North Carolina sent me to do a job – I will be contesting the election!”

Cawthorn joins other incoming members of Congress such as Rep.-elect Barry Moore (R-AL) and Rep.-elect Marjorie Taylor-Greene (R-GA) in joining the effort, which was pioneered by Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL). Since then, numerous rising stars within the party have signed on, including Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) and Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL).

Brooks’ letter posits that mass fraud has rendered the results of the 2020 election to be illegitimate, and thus Congress is obliged not to certify the illegitimate election.

“I’m doing this because in my judgment this is the worst election theft in the history of the United States,” Brooks told The Hill in a recent interview. “And if there was a way to determine the Electoral College outcome using only lawful votes cast by eligible American citizens, then Donald Trump won the Electoral College.”

Brooks also explained that this unprecedented step became necessary after it became impossible for courts to “determine how many illegal votes were cast and who they were cast for”, as the 1993 National Voters Rights Act had opened “the floodgates for illegal aliens and other noncitizens to register to vote”. He noted that there was a much stronger constitutional argument for Congress to take the reins of settling the contested election than for the courts to get involved.

Rand Paul and Ted Cruz likely will.

The GOP is cooperating with the Democrats on the Big Steal.
They do not want to thwart it.

Serious doubt about both of them, Tuberville might, maybe.

All we need is at least 1 senator with some stones, right?

So, round-robin it. Congressman makes an objection, they shout, er, vote it down. Next congressman makes objection. Gets voted down. When you reach the end of the pool of objectors, start over at the first with a new objection.

They need to be creative and anticipate what the commies will try, to shut things down.

Since this kid is in a wheel chair, there are not too many threats that will scare him off.

It is a real shame when a 25 year old in a wheel chair has more backbone than most of the pubbies in office.

I read that Tommy Tuberville, {jeff session's replacement} from AL has committed to be part of this crew.

That’s logical. Prove the problem in a place where there’s no dispute regarding outcome. Then let that decision impact all states’ results.

I think they should find a way to get correct numbers in EVERY precinct where Dominion was used. I know that’s not even possible, but we know that if the results were true, PDJT would’ve won the popular vote, too. I want to shove THAT in their faces, and let’s see how quickly the subject of removing the electoral college disappears from their mouths.

And I’m not sure, but I think that other machines, not just Dominion, were rigged.
