McConnell Urges No Objection to Electoral Vote

On a private conference call, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) urged his Republican colleagues not to join House members on January 6 to object to state electoral results, CNN reports.

George Conway: “The importance of this is that, in order for an objection to an electoral vote certificate to be considered, it must be made by at least one member of each chamber… If an objection is made by at least one member from each house, then both houses must repair to their respective chambers for debate and a vote, with the objection being sustained only by a vote of a majority of both houses.”

“So basically McConnell is telling his caucus not to let the crazies in the House to make a circus of the electoral vote counting on January 6.”
