power of the southern states governments. which they did for more than a century (arguably even today in the deepest south)

And now the Democrats are going too far (IMO) {nm} DTravel Jan 10, 08:59

it was literally written into the Constitution post-Civil War (14th Am.) sedition and treason are disqualifying acts for Congresspersons pickle rick! Jan 10, 13:37

Its also written into the Constitution that Congresspersons can challenge the electoral results for any state. DTravel Jan 10, 15:41

bull****. casting that vote was an attempt to throw out certified election results and overturn the outcome. nobody limited their speech {nm} pickle rick! Jan 10, 16:46

Throwing out a state's electoral college votes would be the point of such a CONSTITUTIONAL challenge, yes. {nm} DTravel Jan 10, 17:50

it's not "constitutional" just because you allege it without any factual or legal basis to actually overturn lawful certified results {nm} pickle rick! Jan 10, 18:39

Then why does Congress have a specific procedure for just such a thing? {nm} DTravel Jan 10, 19:19

because in 1876 three southern states rigged their vote counting to blackmail Republicans into ending Reconstruction pickle rick! Jan 10, 20:39

So why didn't the Federal government just arrest and try those responsible for the vote rigging in 1876 with sedition? DTravel Jan 10, 21:40
