Pa. Legislature To Follow Tradition Of Awarding Electoral Votes To Popular Vote Winner

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

HARRISBURG (KDKA) — For months, there has been talk swirling that if Joe Biden wins Pennsylvania, Republicans in the state legislature could bypass the popular vote and appoint electors who are favorable to President Trump.

The electors award Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral votes.

On Friday, State Senate majority leader Jake Corman said Republicans will honor the wishes of the voters.

“Our role is to monitor the process, our role is to provide oversight and call out questions where they might need asked, but certainly want to stay with the tradition of the popular vote winner getting the electors,” Senator Corman said.

4. "Honor the wish of the voters" as if they were not required to do so by Pennsylvania legal statutes

Like the old expression some used to use, 'That's mighty white of you'.

5. Good to hear, but one correction: it's not """tradition""" -- it's the LAW.
