remember that its the new house that certifies. and i think we will get the majority back.
BUT remember the protracted recount fight in minn that kept al franken from being seated, denying obama the majority for quite a while.
trust me, there will b reps they will try not to seat. they will throw up road block in every close election just to deny an opening day majority. they will demand a recount anywhere that its close, then try to f up that recount.
we MUST CRUSH them, all across the country.
its a whole different ballgame on jan 6 w speaker jeffries v speaker moses.
eta- neil katyal is warning of this, tho i am focusing on just 1/6.

they will be attempting to steal the election with. Good thing President Biden has immunity for
official acts, believe we will see some.
I have to suggest that we be very careful with phrasing, and that "STORM the house" may not be a good choice. On January 6, 2021 they stormed the House. I absolutely agree with your sentiment and conclusion, but we really don't want to give anyone, literally ANYONE, the idea that we would resort to inappropriate tactics to get there.

And no, that's not how we got here.
j6 wasnt a storm. it was an armed insurrection.
some language we have to take back.

(19,717 posts)If you're talking about if the presidential election goes to the House, it's a bit more murky. Each state gets one vote on that case, and even if Democrats win majority of House representatives, it's not a done deal that we'll win a majority of the states.

(19,717 posts)...in order for it to go to the House, it has to happen that neither Harris nor Trump get at least 270 electoral votes. That would be like drawing to an inside straight...very unlikely.

(71,464 posts)cuz it was so close, there was a delay in seating him.
we cant afford too many close races where someone wont b seated on 1/6.

(71,464 posts)it works the same in both houses. if there r close house seats, theyll do what they can to make sure they arent seated until after 1/6.
franken was a fluke. theyll to their best to see there r more flukes.

(578 posts)of the House winners races are very close the repubs will contest the vote where dems win to ensure fewer Dems can be seated on Jan6.
I dont think the point was Franken but the issue of the new congress in general being seated by Jan6
