It didn’t take long for Democrats to object to the counting of Electoral College votes.
Democratic Rep. Jim McGovern of Massachusetts objected to Alabama’s votes for Donald Trump, saying the election in that state did not comply with the federal Voting Rights Act.
However, since no senator joined in the objection, it was rejected. Other Democrats objected to votes in Florida and Georgia.
House Democrats are raising objections to Trump’s election as a joint session of Congress tallies the votes. They can slow the count but do not have the votes to change the outcome.
Vice President Joe Biden is presiding over the count. In denying one objection, Biden said, “It is over.”

He is not my president and he will never be my president and there is a psychological factor here that the administration isn’t getting - y’all are exhibiting a lack of will to win. Y’all are into being martyrs about this, like Stephen Dushan and the Serbians at Kossovo, when the Turks wiped them out.
Liberals have this streak and comes from being right about things and knowing it - we decide to sacrifice ourselves to that and it’s futile and it’s one thing that keeps us losing.
I hate how he put it, but i understand where he’s coming from.
‘Fight,get beat,rise and fight again.’
All that matters now
To me this is where the fight started and I don’t think anything changes that - it starts right where this election overturned everyone’s expectations and what happened, given the Russians, the charges of vote fraud and counter charges.
I don’t see the point of voluntarily giving up one of our fighting points. The man was not elected fairly or honorably or in an American fashion.
comey flipped the election. and he gets a pass?
