And yet Republicans doing this was a criminal act?

No, Republicans thinking about doing this was a criminal act.

It actually did not happen.

Democrats actually doing it is cool.

Because they say so.

I thought this was to close the door on the certification arguments in the future:

The new provisions also ensure only one slate of electors makes it to Congress after Trump and his allies unsuccessfully tried to create alternative slates of electors in states Biden won. Each governor would now be required to sign off on electors, and Congress cannot consider slates submitted by different officials. The bill creates a legal process if any of those electors are challenged by a presidential candidate.

Remember also Hollywood liberals made a video to encourage electors to “vote their conscience” instead of Trump back in 2016. I don’t remember any of those folks being charged in Georgia with committing criminal acts.
