The electoral college has voted, and even Mitch McConnell has accepted the results. But for Biden to become President, the full Congress must RATIFY those results.
“I can either sit back and surrender or I can fight for our country,” Congressman Brooks said.
And so, on Jan. 6, Alabama Congressman Mo Brooks will object to the electoral votes of any states.
“That in my judgment have such flawed election systems that their vote counts are unworthy of our ratification in the United States Congress,” he said.
And if he can get a Senator to object WITH him, it will force a floor vote, which he knows he will lose. UNLESS he can get the American people to step up.
“Contact their congressmen and senators and demand, demand that they co-sponsor these objections to flawed electoral college vote totals and state quite plainly to their senators and congressmen that if you don’t fight for America, I will never vote for you again and I will fight against you.”
He is asking ALL of us to pressure Congress, so that instead of a process that involves identifying yourself on a voter registration form, and signing a ballot envelope under penalty of perjury, and submitting a paper ballot — instead of all that, we will decide who wins based on a barrage of phone calls and emails from people who don’t have to sign anything, or even prove who they are.
OK! And then we could have Ryan Seacrest announce who America saved!
