Why do we ask for ONE Senator, why not a group?
Then maybe we can get this confrontation really out in the open. What strikes me in all this is their full knowledge that these crimes will directly effect their own job futures.

I think Hillary should stand up on Jan 6th, too. She should remind Congress of her attempt to STOP electronic machines until they are fully secured in the following plan she introduce last year:

1. I'm telling my Senators that I'll be holding to account...
...every Senator who DOESN'T sign the challenge. Dammit, ALL of them should sign.

2. why do we even need to ask them?
speaking for myself, I am so fed up with our so-called "representatives" in Washington I have gotten more apathetic by the day. let them all self-destruct in their greed, corruption and cowardice for all I care. if they have to be ASKED to question an obviously fraudulent election they are worthless. those who have the power are sitting idly by and doing nothing but lining their bank accounts. may they all be consumed in the slow but sure slide to hell they are condoning by their refusal to resist.

4. Maybe our next plan of action should be 'End Campaign Finance'
Seems that's where they get all sticky, huh?

5. If you're apathetic, then why do you care enough to post?
Please take it elsewhere.

7. EVERY Dem Senator should be reminded
of our Democratic roots. Voter intimidation and suppression were done openly nation-wide. What an outrage for ANY Dem to sit back and watch the Congressional Black Caucus be the only members of congress to demand justice. The achievements of the 1960's did not occur by Dems not becoming involved.
I am on a mission to remind Congress of who we are as a party, and their responsibility to their constituents.
