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:

Never Trump/neocon/establishment-leaning GOP Senators
Several anti-Trump Republican Senators have indicated their opposition to objecting to Biden Electors:
- Sen. Pat Toomey (R–PA), a lame duck senator who is retiring in 2022 rather than running for reelection,[14] and who won in 2016 based only on Trump's coattails.
- 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.
- Sen. Tom Cotton (R–AR),[15] who is misguided by neocons and even initially opposed the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court
- Sen. Kevin Cramer (R–ND)[16]
- Sen. John Hoeven (R–ND)[16]
- Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R–WV)[16]
