Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Pence declines to overturn electoral votes

The VP does not have the authority to overturn an election. His job is to read the votes into the official record. Then it is up to the House and Senate to either accept the votes on a state by state basis or to reject them on the same basis. Pence doesn't even have a vote in the matter unless there is a 50-50 tie in the senate and he has NO SAY in anything the House does.

^^^Correct^^^

If he couldnt have rejected the fraud states EC votes and referred the vote to those states legislators, as proscribed in the Constitution as a remedy for illegal election, why would the legislators demand he do so as proscribed in the Constitution, dumb fughk?

PS. Duh?

The next milestone happens when Pence is presented dueling electors. This will be Georgia.

Overwhelming proof of massive election fraud in support of the deep state's candidate and against Trump. You'd have to be blind not to see it.

All procedural means have failed due to massive perfidy, so this is all that's left.

What's about to be proven, over the coming weeks, months and years, is that 51% can't dominate 49%—that a slim majority can't rule with retribution, that 51% can't smash the freedoms of 49%.

That and Internet forums...

He does have the authority to prevent the overturning of an election, however. He just failed to act on said authority. Par for the course in the current environment of massive perfidy on the part of those in governmental positions meant to prevent things like the coup d'etat that's currently underway.

Wow, what an impressive post, you must have gargantuan gear.

You do not seem to grasp the simple fact that the VP does NOT have the authority anywhere to overturn an election on his own. He can't do it! The House and the Senate can do something but the sitting VP cannot. What part of that is hard for you to grasp? I am in no way happy about what is happening, but the VP is powerless right now.

I challenge you or anyone else to show me where in the Constitution or any federal regulation any statute that gives the VP the authority you want him to wield. You can't do it can you?

No he doesn't. The only authority he has is to act as a tie breaker in the case of a 50-50 tie in the senate. Here's a little challenge: Provide me with a valid source that backs up your claim of what he can do.

My understanding is he simply needs to send it back to the states and the state legislators want to de-certify

"An analysis by two prominent law professors published before the election concluded that if Electoral College votes remain in dispute after they are counted in Congress, the vice president, as presiding officer of the joint session, could choose not to allow certain disputed votes."

A functional Constitutional would have prevented the necessity of this whole situation.

It's past time for wondering what is and what isn't Constitutional.

America's Constitution was used for ass wipe by the people in power a long time ago.

Make congress and the senate do their job to make these state legislators do their job is what it boils down too in mikey poo,s statement.
JMO......

Stick a fork in him as far as I'm concerned.

Friends, your country is fuqked. Because of Trumps claims from months, even a couple years ago the election will be rigged. And claims after the election claims that it was rigged. Yet while he was in power the whole time he couldn't do anything to change it? Or at least find a morsel of hard evidence? I keep looking for a evidence that the Dems didn't win all I get told is I'm blind, everyone knows, here it is on this extremist site's link etc etc. I can't believe my best friends and neighbors have slipped in to the territory of a 3rd world country over the claims of one man simply because he lost an election. I wish you all the best. I hope there's enough pieces to rebuild from. Peace out.

Its painfully obvious those comments from a socialist country indicate why they were able to turn socialist. No stomach to do whats needed at times.

Of course the USA would not exist as such, if the founders did not have the stomachs. I just pray we still have the stomach to do the right thing when the time requires it.

The founding fathers KNEW this would happen, its why things were written into the constitution that have been violated and will continue to do so unless stopped.

When you break laws to hold an election, the election is fraudulent plain and simple. You cannot change rules mid stream without approval. It gets no more simple than that.
