I didn’t think you were allowed to question election results? I could have sworn I had posts and videos removed because questioning anything about the 2020 election was “misinformation”. Democrats were not held to this standard after the 2016 election, will they be held to this standard if a republican wins in 2024?

In 2020 we were told the confirmation of electoral votes in congress was a “formality” and almost a “ceremonial role”. If so why did Democrats challenge the electoral votes in 2016? They also didn’t have a senator to back up the objection; in 2020 Ted Cruz was that senator and backed up the objection.

Direct Quotes:

While Trump, who is set to take office on Jan. 20, garnered more than the 270 electoral votes required to win, Democrat Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by nearly 3 million ballots. The election has been shadowed by concerns over Russian attempts to influence the result in Trump's favor.

U.S. Representative Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas plans to file an objection to electoral votes submitted from her state, a spokesman confirmed. Politico reported possible challenges also might come from fellow Democrats Ed Perlmutter of Colorado, Bobby Scott of Virginia, John Conyers of Michigan and Jamie Raskin of Maryland.

A member of Congress needs at least one U.S. senator to back the objection and suspend the joint session while the House of Representatives and Senate meet separately to debate it.

House Democratic leaders said they knew of no senator lined up behind such an effort.

House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi said the Russian hacking concerns cast a pall over the 2016 vote.

Members of the Electoral College convened last month in the 50 state capitals to cast their votes for president and vice president and to submit them to Congress.

I hope none of it has ever leaked in her bag.

Joe Biden should take the same test.
