4. Go after Blunt ... he refused to say that Biden won the election

Here is what he wrote to me on November 11, after I requested that he accept the results of the election and say that Biden had won it:

Dear ******:

Thank you for taking time to share your thoughts on the integrity of our presidential election.

President Trump did a great job with unbelievable energy and dedication at the end of the campaign. We have set all-time records for voter participation. Every vote that was legally cast needs to be counted. Votes that were not legally cast should not be counted. As a former Secretary of State and a voter, I know it is essential that our election systems be protected to preserve the integrity of the voting process. Candidates have the right to use all of the tools available to them to ensure the votes are accurately counted. This process should be completely transparent so the American people are confident in the results. America will once again serve as an example to the world.

Again, thank you for contacting me. I look forward to continuing our conversation on Facebook (www.facebook.com/SenatorBlunt) and Twitter (www.twitter.com/RoyBlunt) about the important issues facing Missouri and the country. I also encourage you to visit my website (blunt.senate.gov) to learn more about where I stand on the issues and sign-up for my e-newsletter.

Sincere regards,

Roy Blunt
United States Senator
