Congress Tries To Sneak MAJOR Change To Electoral System In Bill

Why is it even remotely acceptable for giant omnibus bills to see the light of day?

A bill should address 1 topic, and propose 1 concise change to the law—not take up thousands of pages discussing everything from cosmetics regulation, taxes, and the electoral system…

This is simply a way to use the dark labyrinth of “the law” as a cover for corruption—the more numerous the laws, the more corrupt the state, as Tacitus once said.

The establishment is pushing for the inclusion of the “Electoral Count Act”, a legal provision that would make it much more difficult for representatives and lawmakers to challenge election results…

More precisely, the role of the Vice President in certifying the election and contesting election results, yet, as some have pointed out, why is this even necessary?

Weren’t we told over and over again that Mike Pence had no right to decertify the results of the rigged 2020 election?

President Trump exposed a vulnerability in the establishment and now they are attempting to patch that vulnerability up so they can continue to cheat and defraud the American people.

We don’t need the Electoral Count Act, we need transparent elections, smaller government, and term limits…

The reactions on Twitter were overwhelmingly negative:

The Uniparty is pushing for lame duck (un-democratic?) passage of "Electoral Count Act" that would unconstitutionally make it harder for Congress and state legislatures to challenge and protect the nation from fraud in presidential elections. Call your Senators 202-224-3121.

The so-called Electoral Count Act is unconstitutional, period. Move on. It's dead on arrival. Grow a set, republicans, and stop allowing the left to walk all over you. Thanks

The Electoral Count Act makes it tougher to fight fraud in elections. It is not about preserving democracy. it is about preserving power. https://t.co/0a3wPkYA8P

Rand Paul writes in the Courier Journal:

The Electoral College is worth saving but, without reform, I fear the calls for abolishing the Electoral College might succeed.

Recent elections uncovered defects in Congress’s interaction with the Electoral College. Federal law currently leaves ambiguous the role of the Vice President in counting electoral votes and allows an incredibly low threshold – just one member of the House and Senate – to object to a state’s election results.

 

Also included in the bill: Regulations on cosmetics, changes to horseracing rules, and the Electoral Count Act.

The regime is amending the Electoral Count Act b/c Trump exposed a major vulnerability in their election rigging framework

Pence absolutely had the power to send back fraudulent votes to state legislatures for further review

If he didn’t, then why amend the ECA?

It's interesting that the Electoral Count Act needs to be updated to limit the VP's power in the elections, when we were reliably informed two years ago that the VP had no power in the elections, no reasonable person could ever think that, and even arguing for it was sedition.

The Epoch Times explains:

The bipartisan Electoral Count Reform and Presidential Transition Improvement Act, introduced in July, designates the certification of presidential electors to the governor of each state unless another official is specified under state law.

The bill further specifies that the role of the vice president in counting electoral votes is to be only ceremonial, and raises the threshold for congressional debate on objections to a state’s results to one-fifth of the House and one-fifth of the Senate.
