Republican Senators will challenge Beden's victory

This movement is largely symbolic and has no almost chance of preventing Beden from being inaugurated as president on January 20th, but still represents an unprecedented attempt to undermine the will of the American electorate.

In a joint statement on January 2nd, the eleven Republicans claimed that “charges of fraud and irregularities in the 2020 elections exceeded any charges that have been made” in the election ever, but they gave no evidence to support these claims.

US President Donald Trump has refused to accept defeat in the election and has repeatedly made unfounded accusations that the elections were manipulated and has pledged to continue fighting for the election outcome.

This group of republican senators said that when Congress meets on January 6th to officially certified Beden's victory, they will seek the creation of a special commission that will carry out a ten-day emergency audit “on the election outcome.

Almost 140 Republicans in the House of Representatives are also expected to object to the results in American states during the congressional joint meeting.

The American Electoral College on December 14th has confirmed Beden's victory in the 2020 presidential election. Beden has won 306 electoral votes, meanwhile Trump 232.

Biden spokesman Michel Gwin said this decision by this group of republican senators is a “theatrical political”>>>>

“This will not change the fact that President-elect Biden will take the oath on January 20th, and these groundless claims have already been investigated and rejected by the Prosecutor General of Trump, by dozens of courts and by election officials of both parties”, he said.

Marc Short, head of the staff of Vice President Mike Pence, said the Pence, which will lead this congressional meeting, <x0, welcomes the efforts of House of Representatives and Senate members to use their authority that gives them the law and freeze objections as well as bring information to Congress and the Americans on January 6,”.

Under the American system, voters vote for their <x0 selectors”, who several weeks after the elections choose vote for the next president.

Republican senators said they object to some of the “electors of several states”, waiting for the audit to take place, but did not show which states it is about.

Congress is unlikely to comply with any of this group's demands.

We expect the majority, if not all Democrats, and perhaps even some Republicans, to vote differently”, the republican senators said through a joint statement.

The decision to challenge the election outcome in Congress is creating division among the republics, as the majority leader in the Senate, Mitch McConnell, has already called on his party not to try to challenge the outcome of the presidential election. The 2020 elections, by election officials, have been named free and fair.

Earlier this week, Republican Senator from Nebraska Ben Susse called on his colleagues to give up the collapse of the election result, as according to him, it threatens US civil norms.

According to the American system, each country has an equal number of electors in Congress: two senators plus the number of members an American state has in the House of Representatives. The capital, Washington, has three votes. The results are then sent to Washington and presented during a joint session of Congress.
