Reportedly, at least 140 House Republicans are expected to object to the certification of the Electoral College votes. There is only one senator on board so far.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told the Senate he didn’t want them to join the effort. But, Senator Josh Hawley went his own way and said he couldn’t vote to certify the Electoral votes.
Hawley stated that he “cannot vote to certify without pointing out the unprecedented effort of mega-corporations, including Facebook and Twitter, to interfere in this election, in support of Joe Biden. At the very least, Congress should investigate allegations of voter fraud and adopt measures to secure the integrity of our elections.”
Hawley said, “But Congress has so far failed to act.”

“It would be comical if it weren’t about such a serious matter,” says conservative lawyer George Conway on GOP senator Josh Hawley delaying in affirming Biden’s victory by forcing votes on Electoral College results.
