Texas Republicans declare Biden election illegitimate, despite evidence

Sun, June 19, 2022, 2:32 PM

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republicans in Texas formally rejected President Joe Biden's election in 2020 as illegitimate and voted in a state-wide convention that wrapped up this weekend on a party platform that calls homosexuality an "abnormal lifestyle choice."

The party's embrace of unfounded electoral fraud allegations in a bedrock Republican state came as a bipartisan congressional committee seeks to definitively and publicly debunk the false idea that Biden did not win the election.

Biden received 7 million more votes than rival Donald Trump. Biden also received 306 votes from the Electoral College, more than the 270 needed to win.

The congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol is building a case that Trump's efforts to overturn his defeat in the 2020 presidential election — including by denying he lost — amounted to conspiracy to illegally hold onto power.

Trump, the 45th U.S. president, has denied any wrongdoing.

"We reject the certified results of the 2020 presidential election, and we hold that acting President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. was not legitimately elected by the people of the United States," the Texas party said in a resolution, passed in a voice vote at its convention.

Texas is a major player in U.S. national politics, with 38 electoral votes, the second highest after California. Voters there have backed Republican presidents for the past four decades.

The White House had no comment.  :snip:

GOP County REFUSES To Certify Election Signaling Midterm CHAOS, Fears Of CIVIL WAR Escalating. Food And Fuel Shortages Along With A Political Crisis Give Way To Fear Of Conflict.

People will be angry and they will be hungry. The Novermber Midterms could result in a blocked election or maybe no results in certain counties. If it doesn't happen now it could certainly happen in 2024 if Steve Bannon gets his way and we see republicans enter the electoral process becoming poll workers and lawyers.

Poll after Pol show people fear a second civil war is coming and more and more major issues seem to signal we are heading in that direction.
