Pennsylvania Republicans Put Election Nightmare Scenario In Motion
Pennsylvania Republican legislators took the first step on Wednesday toward enacting a nightmare scenario in which they could challenge the outcome of the state’s presidential election if President Donald Trump loses.
Per the above article; “Pennsylvania Republican legislators took the first step on Wednesday toward enacting a scenario in which they could challenge the outcome of the state’s presidential election if President Donald Trump loses.
Republicans in the state House of Representatives passed a resolution out of the chamber’s government committee on a 15-10 party-line vote to create a special “election integrity committee” of three Republicans and two Democrats to investigate the 2020 election. It could possibly certify its own slate of electors for Trump based on phony charges of voter fraud.
The new committee could launch before the election with full subpoena power for “witnesses, documents and other materials,” according to the language of the bill. Efforts by Democrats to change the bill to launch the committee after the election were rebuffed on Wednesday.
The new committee could also pursue its own investigation after the election to cast doubt on the results by misinterpreting errors or making otherwise misleading accusations, as other Republican politicians have done after losing elections.
“It gives them subpoena and investigatory power that they could use to find ‘“facts’” as a predicate for claiming the election was not fairly run and they can choose electors directly,” said Rick Hasen, an election law expert at the University of California, Irvine.
The Department of Justice has already manufactured a phony incident of purported voter fraud by sending out a press release claiming that nine discarded military ballots in Pennsylvania constituted evidence of fraud. It turned out that a new worker, confused by the ballots’ failure to arrive in their necessary secrecy envelopes, accidentally threw them out. The top state elections official said what happened was “not intentional fraud.”
