While campaigning for Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue in Georgia, Vice President Mike Pence also addressed the upcoming electoral challenge on January 6. He declared that President Donald Trump and the GOP will “have our day in Congress.”
“I know we all got our doubts about the last election … I promise you, come this Wednesday, we’ll have our day in Congress. We’ll hear the objections. We’ll hear the evidence, but tomorrow is Georgia’s day.”
Epoch Times reports:
Pence, as vice president, is the president of the Senate. During the joint session on Jan. 6, he will read the electoral votes for all 50 states. Although some legal experts have suggested that he has the ability to reject slates of electors in certain states, others have stipulated that Pence only has the ability to count states’ electors.
Pence’s role in the upcoming joint session was brought into a different light last week after Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) filed a lawsuit against the vice president to strike down a provision in the 1887 Electoral Count Act. Gohmert in his lawsuit—which was later dismissed—asserted that Pence is empowered by the Constitution’s 12th Amendment to reject states’ electors who favored Joe Biden.
Last week, the vice president’s chief of staff stated that Pence welcomes lawmakers to challenge the results, adding that he “shares the concerns of millions of Americans about voter fraud and irregularities in the last election.”
