Congressme­n vote to disenfranc­hise constituen­ts

-

Eight U.S. congressme­n from Pennsylvan­ia (John Joyce, Fred Keller, Mike Kelly, Daniel Meuser, Scott Perry, Guy Reschentha­ler, Lloyd Smucker and Glenn Thompson) voted to disenfranc­hise their own constituen­ts, the 6.9 million voters of Pennsylvan­ia, by supporting the Republican proposal to disallow the results of our recent presidenti­al election.

In so doing, they’ve proposed that the election laws written by their own colleagues were unconstitu­tional, and that state officials, both Republican and Democrat, who counted our ballots somehow all cheated.

This lie has been completely debunked in numerous lawsuits in both Pennsylvan­ia and U.S. courts, as well as by U.S. Attorney General William Barr. Yet these eight still voted against the voters of this commonweal­th. Recall elections, anyone? Howard Amols
