Pennsylvania Republicans Reject Certification Of Electors

Pennsylvania Republicans Reject Certification Of Electors — Eight of Pennsylvania’s nine Republican members of the House of Representatives have released a joint statement saying they won’t certify the electors for Joe Biden.

Not joining them is Bryan Fitzpatrick of the 1st District.

Pennsylvania’s 18 congress members are divided equally between the parties.

Here is the statement.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today (Dec. 31), Pennsylvania members of the U.S. House of Representatives including Congressman Dan Meuser (PA-9), Congressman Glenn ‘GT’ Thompson (PA-15), Congressman Mike Kelly (PA-16), Congressman Scott Perry (PA-10), Congressman Lloyd Smucker (PA-11), Congressman Guy Reschenthaler (PA-14), Congressman John Joyce (PA-13), and Congressman Fred Keller (PA-12) released the following joint statement:

“The United States Constitution is unambiguous in declaring that state legislatures are the entity with authority to set election procedure – 

“Article 1, Section 4, Clause 1: The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof…

“Article 2, Section 1, Clause 2: Each state shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors…

“Unfortunately, the many unlawful actions undertaken by the Pennsylvania Governor’s office, the Secretary of State, and what has been described as a rogue Pennsylvania Supreme Court exceeded and circumvented the state legislature’s clear constitutional authority.

“The unlawful actions include, but are not limited to:

  • Accepting ballots past 8:00 pm on Election Day
  • Not properly requiring signatures to match those on mail-in ballots or requiring dates
    • Meanwhile, the matching of signatures was required at a polling site
  • Authorizing the curing of mail-in ballots with less than a 24-hour’s notice
    • Only some counties were informed and adhered to this order leaving voters treated unequally from county to county
  • Authorizing the use of unsecure drop boxes, which is not permitted in statute
  • Prohibiting certified poll watchers overseeing the canvassing of ballots in Philadelphia

“These unlawful actions were taken without the authority or consent of the Pennsylvania state legislature. These are facts, and they are indisputable.

“Additionally, the Pennsylvania Attorney General did nothing with regard to these unlawful activities. Not one inquiry, no questioning, and certainly no investigations. Not to mention that hundreds, if not thousands, of affidavits outlining election complaints and potential fraud were documented, submitted, and ignored. The Pennsylvania election could be summed up as a free-for-all with no oversight and different standards applied throughout the Commonwealth. It is also very apparent that the unlawful actions described were concentrated in heavily populated, Democrat-led counties.

“By definition, such unlawful, unregulated, and inconsistent activities resulted in a highly questionable and inaccurate vote total. The scope of these inaccuracies cannot be known until the legal ballots are identified and counted, and the illegal ballots are disqualified. This has not been done.

“Therefore, the state’s official certification of electors was based upon a flawed system and an inaccurate vote count. Thus, very possibly resulting in an erroneous certification.

“Until these unlawful practices are acknowledged and corrected, we cannot agree to support electors chosen based upon an inaccurate total vote count. The voters of Pennsylvania deserve integrity in the election process and equal protection under the law.

“This very unfortunate, volatile, and distressing situation is due to the lack of respect and regard for the law and the U.S. Constitution as well as the Pennsylvania State Constitution. Additionally, the failure of Pennsylvania’s justice system to seek the truth, rather than stay silent, allowed these irregular, unlawful actions to create a high level of mistrust in the process as well as a potentially flawed outcome.

“If there is an American ideal that all citizens, regardless of party affiliation, can agree upon is that we must have election integrity. Election integrity is the only way to ensure trust in our elections and it is accomplished by adhering to our Constitution and the law.”

Helen Abbruzzesi Weber R.I.P.

Dear friend Helen Abbruzzesi Weber died, Dec. 24. Here is her obituary from Donohue Funeral Home:

Helen Abbruzzesi Weber

Helen Abbruzzesi Weber, age 82, of West Chester, PA was peacefully carried home to be with her Lord and Savior on Dec. 24, after battling cancer. She was born July 29, 1938 in Chester to the late Louis Abbruzzesi and Dorothy Abbruzzesi. Helen is survived by her loving husband of 59 years, John Henry Weber; her daughters: Lisa M. Esler (Chip), Donna J. Caudell (David), Paula J. Stiles, and Jaclyn A. Gregory; her grandchildren: Joshua King, Brittany Robinson, Cameron Stiles, Drew Gregory, Ryan Gregory, and Ashlynn Gregory, and her great grandchildren, Giovanna Lord, and Abel and Mercy King.

Helen was a born-again Christian and was very politically active in her community. Over the years she worked in property management, but her most important job was that of wife and mother. She loved spending time with her family and friends and enjoyed shopping and going to the beach. Helen was a giving person who always looked after those around her, especially her girls. Helen will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

A memorial service will be held on Wednesday, December 30, at Faith Community Baptist Church in Downingtown, PA. Family and friends are invited to pay their respects beginning at 10 am, followed by her service at 11 am. Burial at Philadelphia Memorial Park Cemetery.

Major Pennsylvania Vote Controversy Ignored By Media

Major Pennsylvania Vote Controversy Ignored By Media — The Pennsylvania State House announced, yesterday, Dec. 28, that county tally of votes from Nov. 3 was 202,377 more than those recorded as having voted by the Pennsylvania Department of State’s Statewide Uniform Registry of Voters (SURE).

State Rep. Russ Diamond (R-102) says the county tallies declare 6,962,607 votes cast — only 6,931,060 in the presidential race — while SURE calls for 6,760,230 votes cast with the presidential race equaling total votes cast.

The DOS website, however, reflects 6,949,423 votes including fully and partially counted provisional ballots.

Biden’s claimed margin of victory in the state is 80,555.

The audit was led by State Rep. Frank Ryan (R-101), a certified public accountant, using data downloaded directly from SURE.

What have we heard from the state’s major media? Here’s the link to Philadelphia Inquirer’s top stories. Not a mention as of 11:09 a.m., Dec. 29.

WJAC-TV of Harrisburg did a fair story, though, which included a response from the Department of State, saying the Republican audit was based on incomplete data as Philadelphia, Allegheny, Butler and Cambria counties have not yet submitted voter histories into the SURE system.

Diamond, however, has posted images from Lebanon County showing significant discrepancies between SURE and county tallies. Something was seriously wrong with this election.
