Congresswoman-elect Marjorie Taylor-Greene (R-Ga.) will fight to challenge the Electoral College votes in an attempt to keep President Trump in office when she assumes office next month.
In a tweet posted Dec. 16, Taylor-Greene called upon fellow citizens to protect the integrity of the elections.
“It is our constitutional responsibility to #StopTheSteal,” she wrote. “I know for a fact Georgia, and other states, did not elect Joe Biden for President. We re-elected @realDonaldTrump for 4 more years! We represent #WeThePeople and we must protect election integrity.”
Taylor-Greene joins fellow Republican and Congressman-elect Barry Moore, who expressed the same sentiment earlier this month to support Rep. Mo Brooks in challenging the legitimacy of Joe Biden’s presidency.
“The new #woke is #StopTheSteaI #ElectionIntegrity matters I support this and have agreed to go to the house floor from day one and fight,” Moore wrote in a tweet earlier this month.
Brooks claims that state election laws on mail ballots were unconstitutional and should not be counted as legitimate votes.
To challenge a state’s electoral votes, a member of the House and Senate must request a debate and vote in both chambers to accept or reject the state's electors. If both chambers vote to reject it, the state's electoral slate is tossed.
