Editor’s note: This is the first in a two-part series on the legislators’ call for an investigation.
More than a month after the Nov. 3 presidential election, over half of Missouri’s Republican state representatives — including the incoming speaker of the House and nearly all South County’s GOP legislators — called on Congress to refuse to certify six battleground states’ electoral college votes unless they investigate their results.
Rep. Justin Hill, a Republican from Lake St. Louis, filed a nonbinding resolution Dec. 10 declaring that the Missouri House has a “lack of faith” in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania or Wisconsin’s presidential election results.
