Democrats Have Objected to Electoral Vote Certification For the Last 3 GOP Presidents
2021-01-02
[PJMedia] Democrats are outraged that Republicans are planning on objecting to the certification of electoral votes. It’s "conspiracy and fantasy," says Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer
...Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras and microphones. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower, which is 45.07573 years. Senate minority leader as of 2017...
"The effort by the sitting President of the United States to overturn the results is patently undemocratic," the New York Democrat said. "The effort by others to amplify and burnish his ludicrous claims of fraud is equally revolting."

"This is America. We have elections. We have results. We make arguments based on the fact and reason—not conspiracy and fantasy," he added.

There’s only one problem with Chucky’s "argument based on fact and reason." Democrats have been challenging the electoral vote certification for 2 decades.

The last three times a Republican has been elected president — Trump in 2016 and George W. Bush in both 2000 and 2004 — Democrats in the House have brought objections to the electoral votes in states the GOP nominee won. In early 2005 specifically, Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., along with Rep. Stephanie Tubbs, D-Ohio, objected to Bush’s 2004 electoral votes in Ohio.

In fact, the Ohio electoral vote challenge was only the beginning. Rumors and conspiracy theories swirled around the outcome on election night that saw Bush winning Ohio by a close, but the surprisingly comfortable margin of 120,000 votes. So why are so many of these headlines familiar to us today?

They even included some voting machine controversies.

#1  Remember: everything these assholes accuse Trump and Trumpists of doing applies in spades to their own behavior. They're textbook examples of projection
