Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), in rare agreement with his Democratic counterpart, on Wednesday said Congress cannot change the results of the election, after legislators objected to Arizona’s electoral votes.
“Every election we know features some illegality and irregularity, and of course that’s unacceptable. I support strong state-led voting reforms. Last year’s bizarre pandemic procedures must not become the new norm. But my colleagues, nothing before us proves illegality anywhere near the massive scale that would have tipped the entire election. Nor can public doubt alone justify a radical break when the doubt itself was incited without any evidence,” McConnell said on the Senate floor.
