Thank you my friend PO1 H Gene Lawrence for posting the perspective from townhall.com
Republican Mariannette Miller-Meeks has defeated Democrat Rita Hart in the district, notching a GOP gain. The votes were tallied, a recount ensued, and Miller-Meeks prevailed by six votes. Pursuant to the law and the counted and recounted outcome, the state of Iowa officially certified the result. Rather than bringing a legally-compelling case to the courts to challenge the formal outcome by citing actionable problems or irregularities, the Hart campaign is instead appealing the election to...the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives:
Democrat Rita Hart is claiming the recount in Iowa’s 2nd congressional district race was inconsistent and thousands of legal votes were not counted. Last month, the Secretary of State certified the results after a district-wide recount found Republican Mariannette Miller-Meeks won by only six votes. Hart’s campaign plans to appeal the results in the U-S House of Representatives. The campaign could have appealed the certified results to the Iowa Judicial System. But they say this process would not have allowed enough time to count the thousands of votes they claim should have been counted...Once it’s filed, the House administrative committee in Washington DC will review the case. Miller-Meeks says that takes the power out of Iowans’ hands and gives it to a Democrat-controlled House. “Every legal vote was counted,” Miller-Meeks said. “What Rita Hart wants to do is to not follow the rules of Iowa law. She wants a partisan political process in Washington D.C. to override Iowa law.”

These people should come to NE Pa. They haven’t seen nothing yet. Except for Philadelphia I live in the most politically corrupt area in the United States.
