Pelosi works to unseat the winner of last year’s Iowa race

Iowa Republican candidate Marianette Miller-Meeks won by only six votes. This is a flip. A retiring Democrat held the seat.

Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R) was declared the winner of Iowa’s second congressional district over Democratic challenger Rita Hart last November by just six votes — 196,964 to 196,958.

The Iowa City Press-Citizen reported she won by 6 votes despite a recount in Clinton County. The vote was certified, making Miller-Meeks the official winner.

Now, the Pelosi House is trying to unseat the Republican winner and did so with a change or rules.

HOW TO UNSEAT A WINNER

The Democratic House found a way to unseat the winner and put the loser, the Democrat, in the congressional seat. They passed new rules and they are retroactive.

After Iowa certified Miller-Meeks’ win, Hart appealed to the House by filing a Notice of Contest. Her campaign claims that legitimate votes weren’t counted.

Hart never went through the judicial process and always planned to do it through Pelosi’s House.

This is from the party that won’t allow Republicans to say the 2020 election was a fraud.

The Iowa City Press-Citizen reported “22 “legally-cast, uncounted votes” – Hart says they will make her the winner.”

Lawyers for Hart’s campaign allege the Democrat would have won the race by just nine votes had the 22 votes not been excluded.

In Steps the Corrupt House Admin Committee

They set up a process to make it happen.

Politico reported, “The Friday meeting was brief. Members unanimously agreed to a resolution that establishes procedures the committee will abide by as it considers recent elections contested under the act.”

It’s retroactive.

They are formally beginning an investigative process that could result in Miller-Meeks losing her seat if Hart’s claims are confirmed.

They are subordinating the peoples’ vote to their will. That’s what they accused DJT of doing.

To deal with past contested elections, the Administration Committee, chaired by far-far-left Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.), has set up a task force to oversee an investigation or recount. That panel would make a recommendation based on its findings to the entire House, which could then vote on who should hold the seat.

Hart’s thrilled and claims she cares about the voters.

These are the votes Democrats want to be counted:
  • Two were rejected because the absentee voters died before their ballots were counted on Election Day
  • Two envelopes were not sealed. Both were replaced with new ballots, but only one of those was returned
  • One ballot was rejected because the person was not an active, registered voter
  • Two ballots were rejected because the voters had moved out of state
  • Four were rejected because they either did not have a postmark or were received after a state deadline of noon on Nov. 9
  • Three were rejected because the voter did not sign the affidavit envelope before mailing back their absentee ballot
  • Six were provisional ballots that were rejected because the person voted in the wrong precinct or could not provide proof of their identity
  • Three envelopes were rejected because they contained no ballot inside, and are still considered a rejected ballot event though there is no ballot that can be counted
PELOSI CHANGES THE RULES! THEY PLANNED IT!

House Administration Committee ranking member Rep. Rodney Davis (R-Ill.) warned the development might result in a “dangerous precedent.”

“I can’t think of a worst first step this committee could take in a new Congress than to waste taxpayer dollars by moving forward with overturning this election,” he said, Politico reported.

Hart’s campaign revealed in early December that she intended to bypass Iowa courts instead of the Democrat-controlled House.  Hart complained that  there were “limitations in Iowa law.”

The Hart campaign’s decision earned scorn from Miller-Meeks’ campaign and even Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds (R).

“Rita Hart has chosen a political process controlled by Nancy Pelosi over a legal process controlled by Iowa judges. All Iowans should be outraged by this decision,” the Miller-Meeks campaign said, the Des Moines Register reported.

Reynolds similarly reacted, “By heading straight to a Democratic-controlled Congress, Hart is attempting to undermine the voice of Iowans.”

Democrats want to corrupt the process even more than they have.

Elections are states’ exclusive domain. If Iowa’s Secretary of State certified the vote, it’s official. The mental giant Nancy who is equally mentally deficient as Joe Biden, along with the Democrats on the corrupt House Admin Committee who enacted this unconstitutional rule should be sued for violating Iowa’s right to control their elections and by the citizens of Iowa for violating their rights to elect their chosen Representative. Furthermore on the same subject, if passed into law, most provisions of HB1 are unconstitutional and the entire law needs to be challenged.

Is anyone really surprised by this? They seem to think that Jan 6th was an insurrection despite the fact that the only ones with guns and deadly weapons were the capital police and secret service. The up side to their fake insurrection is that if they continue down this path and keep usurping the will of the people and side stepping the laws of the country and our election rules, if they keep trampling our rights, they will end up see what an actual insurrection, taking back of our government, looks like. Im not calling for it but it is inevitable should they continue to think they can do whatever the hell they please in their pursuit of permanent cotrol and power.

Vinny: This is what Pelosi is doing. Notice now she has the buildings they work in FENCED off from you and guarded day and night by National Guard units. She feels safe to do whatever she wants.

January 6th was NOT an insurrection, it was a protest by the people against a congress that does not want to HEAR the will of the people.

The Congressional take over in 2022 will dwarf that of 1994. The only way Democrats can stay in control is by more massive cheating.

Now that SF is fundamentally destroyed they can take that utopian model nationwide.
The neanderthal kulaks will be cancelled eventually as unity doesn’t include dissent or thinking for yourself.
The GOP continues to play with outdated obsolete tactics and Trump was their last chance.
I don’t feel sorry for them or anyone who doesn’t realize how high the stake are at this point.
