In 2005, 31 Democrats in the House and one Democrat in the Senate (Barbara Boxer from California) objected to or voted against the Ohio electors who voted for the reelection of President George W. Bush.[1] In 2017, while multiple House Democrats objected to Vladimir Putin taking over U.S. elections, no Senator signed on to the Russia collusion hoax.[2]
Rep. Mo Brooks has stated that "dozens" of representatives may join his objections to the Biden Electors,[3] and as of January some predict that more than 100 House Republicans would object. Here is the growing list of the courageous congressmen and senators who plan to object to the fraudulent certification of Biden Electors on January 6, 2021, in a Joint Session of Congress: (add to list as more join)

Never-Trumper GOP Senators
Four Anti-Trump Republican Senators have indicated their opposition to objecting to Biden Electors:

- Sen. Mitt Romney (R–UT), a pro-immigration hater of Trump who was the only Republican to side with Dems in the baseless impeachment and removal attempt.
- Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R–AK), a pro-abortion RINO who initially opposed Trump's nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, and then flip-flopped on the issue.
- Sen. Ben Sasse (R–NE), a Never Trumper funded by the Koch brothers network of Trump haters.
