Sen.-elect Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) strongly hinted that he thinks the Senate should challenge the results of the Electoral College.
“You see what’s coming. You’ve been reading about it in the House. We’re going to have to do it in the Senate,” Tuberville said in a video posted on social media.
“Don’t give up on him,” Tuberville said of President Trump while campaigning in Georgia. “Don’t give up on him.”
Tuberville suggested he would back a challenge Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) has vowed to bring against the vote.
He also warned Georgia voters that it was imperative they stop the steal.
“Folks, we got to grab a hold and hold on,” Tuberville told voters. “We have no choice. Listen to me now. We have no choice but to win this election. They’re going to try to steal it. They’re gonna try to buy it. They’re going to do everything they can – lie, cheat and steal to win this election like they did in the presidential election.”
