[President Trump meets with House GOP members planning January 6 challenge =

"Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) =E2=80=94 who is spearheading the long-shot push t=
o overturn the election results in Congress =E2=80=94 organized the trio of=
White House meetings, which lasted over three hours and included roughly a=

=E2=80=A2 A small group of House Republicans, organized by Rep. Mo Brooks,=
met with President Trump yesterday to discuss a challenge to the January 6=
certification of the Electoral College votes in Congress. They also report=
edly met with VP Mike Pence.
=20
=E2=80=A2 Rep. Brooks told POLITICO the group plans to challenge the resul=
ts in six states. That could lead to 18 hours of debate in Congress.

=E2=80=A2 National Review reported <[link removed]

: "House Republicans may be able to force a vote on certification of the el=
ection, however the effort will almost certainly fail in the Democrat-contr=
olled body. No Republican senators have publicly endorsed the effort, and S=
enator John Thune (R., S.D.) told reporters on Monday that the attempt to c=
ontest the election results is 'going down like a shot dog.'"

[Democratic candidate for Iowa House seat files "notice of contest" with U.=
S. House to challenge election results.]

"Democrat Rita Hart has followed through on her pledge to challenge the clo=
se results in Iowa's 2nd District with the House, filing a 'notice of conte=
st' Tuesday. On Nov. 30, Iowa election officials certified the results in t=
he open 2nd District contest showing GOP state Sen. Mariannette Miller-Meek=
s with a six-vote lead after a recount. In her filing with the House, Hart =
identifies 22 ballots that her campaign described as 'legally cast but unla=
wfully excluded' from the recount. If those ballots were counted, Hart woul=
d win by nine votes." (Roll Call <[link removed]

=20
=E2=80=A2 The House Administration Committee will now review her challenge=

=E2=80=A2 Rep-elect. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, a Republican, responded <ht=
tps://www.foxnews.com/politics/iowa-democrat-asks-house-to-investigate-race=
-hart-miller-meeks> : "This election has been decided by Iowans. That decis=
ion should not be thrown into Washington=E2=80=99s hyper-partisan atmospher=
e. It is shameful that Rita Hart does not have faith in Iowans, and does no=
t respect the decision of Iowa voters."

[California union supporting stay-at-home order sent members to door-knock =
in Georgia for Democratic Senate candidates.]

"UNITE HERE Local 11 did not respond to a request for comment on if it cons=
iders political canvassing to be an 'essential activity.' While the letter =
signed by the union stresses the need to 'support our most vulnerable worki=
ng families,' UNITE HERE Local 11 has demanded dues payments from workers l=

[The Vote]

We're 14 days from Georgia's Senate run-off election. Here's the news that you'll want to know:

(1) President Trump meets with House GOP members planning January 6 challenge to Electoral College votes of six states <[link removed]>

(2) Democratic candidate for Iowa House seat files "notice of contest" with U.S. House to challenge election results <[link removed]>

(3) California union supporting stay-at-home order sent members to door-knock in Georgia for Democratic Senate candidates <[link removed]>

[President Trump meets with House GOP members planning January 6 challenge to Electoral College votes of six states.]

"Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) — who is spearheading the long-shot push to overturn the election results in Congress — organized the trio of White House meetings, which lasted over three hours and included roughly a dozen lawmakers. The group also met with Vice President Mike Pence, who will be presiding over the joint session of Congress when lawmakers officially certify the Electoral College votes on Jan. 6, as well as members of Trump’s legal team." (POLITICO <[link removed]> )

Read the full story on POLITICO <[link removed]>

• A small group of House Republicans, organized by Rep. Mo Brooks, met with President Trump yesterday to discuss a challenge to the January 6 certification of the Electoral College votes in Congress. They also reportedly met with VP Mike Pence.

• Rep. Brooks told POLITICO the group plans to challenge the results in six states. That could lead to 18 hours of debate in Congress.

• Today The Hill reported a growing number of House Republicans support the effortt. <[link removed]>

• National Review reported <[link removed]> : "House Republicans may be able to force a vote on certification of the election, however the effort will almost certainly fail in the Democrat-controlled body. No Republican senators have publicly endorsed the effort, and Senator John Thune (R., S.D.) told reporters on Monday that the attempt to contest the election results is 'going down like a shot dog.'"

[Democratic candidate for Iowa House seat files "notice of contest" with U.S. House to challenge election results.]

"Democrat Rita Hart has followed through on her pledge to challenge the close results in Iowa's 2nd District with the House, filing a 'notice of contest' Tuesday. On Nov. 30, Iowa election officials certified the results in the open 2nd District contest showing GOP state Sen. Mariannette Miller-Meeks with a six-vote lead after a recount. In her filing with the House, Hart identifies 22 ballots that her campaign described as 'legally cast but unlawfully excluded' from the recount. If those ballots were counted, Hart would win by nine votes." (Roll Call <[link removed]> )

Read the full story on Roll Call <[link removed]>

• Rita Hart, who ran for the IA-2 House seat, has challenged her loss by six votes to the U.S. House.

• The House Administration Committee will now review her challenge and recommend whether Hart or her Republican opponent, the certified winner of the district, should be sworn in as Iowa's second district representative.

• As Roll Call <[link removed]> reported, with emphasis our own <[link removed]> : "From 1933 to 2009, the House considered 107 contested election cases. In one instance, it declared a vacancy, and in three cases, it seated the candidate who contested the results."

• Rep-elect. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, a Republican, responded <[link removed]> : "This election has been decided by Iowans. That decision should not be thrown into Washington’s hyper-partisan atmosphere. It is shameful that Rita Hart does not have faith in Iowans, and does not respect the decision of Iowa voters."

[California union supporting stay-at-home order sent members to door-knock in Georgia for Democratic Senate candidates.]

"UNITE HERE Local 11 did not respond to a request for comment on if it considers political canvassing to be an 'essential activity.' While the letter signed by the union stresses the need to 'support our most vulnerable working families,' UNITE HERE Local 11 has demanded dues payments from workers left unemployed by the coronavirus." (Washington Free Beacon <[link removed]> )

Read the full story on the Washington Free Beacon <[link removed]>

• As the Washington Free Beacon reported, with the emphasis our own <[link removed]> : Days before a "'progressive' hospitality union based in Los Angeles" signed a letter calling for stay-at-home orders and "closing all nonessential businesses and activities, "the union partnered with the New Georgia Project to send a group of members to knock on doors for Ossoff and Warnock. The union has since touted its work to 'take back the Senate' in the Peach State, sharing videos from the ground in Atlanta."

• New Georgia Project is a voter registration group founded by Stacey Abrams, and Georgia Democratic candidate Raphael Warnock previously served as the group's CEO.
