Pelosi Is Threatening To Highjack An Election That Republicans Won Fair And Square

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has come out for a second time to say that Democrats could overturn an Iowa congressional election that was won by a Republican.

A House committee controlled by Democrats is opening an investigation to consider unseating Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks because she beat her Democrat opponent, Rita Hart by just six votes. The election was counted, recounted, then Miller-Meeks was certified as the winner.

Hart claims that 22 ballots cast for her were miscounted however, she declined to fight the election in the Iowa courts and instead appealed directly to the Democrat-controlled House.

“At least twenty-two Iowans’ legally-cast ballots still have not been counted due to a string of errors. We are glad to see the House Committee on Administration taking the next step towards ensuring that every legally-cast vote is counted in this race and that all Iowans’ voices are heard. Every legal voter in this country has a right to have their ballot counted and the remedy here is clear — count the ballots,” Hart said.

“Rita Hart should immediately cease her undemocratic efforts to usurp the will of Iowa voters and election officials. Iowa voters should decide Iowa elections, not [Speaker] Nancy Pelosi and her socialist colleagues,” said Mike Berg, a spokesperson for the National Republican Congressional Committee.

Pelosi said she doesn’t think the decision to overturn an election is “unique.”

.@GStephanopoulos asks @SpeakerPelosi why she's trying to steal an election where the votes were "counted, recounted, and certified by the state."

Pelosi says it is ok to overturn the results because the Republican candidate only won by 6 votes.

Republican Rodney Davis believes there is no reason for the House to take up the issue.

“We already know the outcome of this contest. Congresswoman Mariannette Miller-Meeks won a free and fair election. It’s in the best interest of taxpayers and the integrity of our election process to dismiss this motion and to dismiss it today,” he said.
