Leading New Texas Rebellion, Louie Gohmert Sues Mike Pence Because VP Lacks Authority to Overturn Joe Biden’s Election Win

[Sunsettommy]

Another absurd lawsuit, they seem oblivious to fact that the states have already CERTIFIED the EC votes, it is in favor for Biden, there is nothing in the law allowing the VP to change the certification decisions.

Leading New Texas Rebellion, Louie Gohmert Sues Mike Pence Because VP Lacks Authority to Overturn Joe Biden’s Election Win
Excerpt:

A Texas hardliner is once again leading a post-election rebellion against the future Joe Biden presidency.

Led by Lone Star State Rep. Louie Gohmert, a coalition of outgoing President Donald Trump’s right-wing loyalists asked a federal judge on Sunday to gut a Reconstruction Era-law in order give Vice President Mike Pence the power to determine the winner of the 2020 presidential election on Jan. 6, 2021.

Gohmert’s cohorts include ex-“Kraken” plaintiff Tyler Bowyer and the Arizona Republican Party’s chairwoman Kelli Ward, whose call for Trump to #CrossTheRubicon was widely interpreted as pining for the president to establish dictatorship just like Julius Caesar did.

From my understanding......Pence is the President of the Senate, and the Constitution says in the case of a contested election, it's up to Naughty Nancy and Pence to vote in the new Pres & Vice Pres.....???????

so in a way, Pence does have atleast some power to do just that.......but I could be wrong here IDK

Pence only role is to open and read the certified ballots by order of the states. It is the Congress who decides over contested certified ballots.

From the 12th amendment:

"The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted; -- The person having the greatest number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice."

How many republicans have, or will have declared their opposition to democracy by Jan. 20?

I doubt that the millions of people living in Texas want to denounce our country's principles.

When you finally find out and realize TRUMP' s accusations of rigging the election were all created out of cloth, even before the election, and he and his minions are trying to install a president, that LOST the vote of the American people, will you be embarrassed you fell for the scam and apologize to the American people for your soft coup attempt and support for the thief n chief, wannabe dictator?
