Supreme Court rejects Gohmert’s last-ditch bid to change election results
The decision came after Congress approved counting all Electoral College votes early Thursday morning.
The United States Supreme Court early Thursday rejected a last-ditch bid by Rep. Louie Gohmert of Tyler to allow Vice President Mike Pence to overturn President-elect Joe Biden’s electoral victory.
