WASHINGTON, D.C., USA Republican Congressman Chris Jacobs (NY-27) released a statement Wednesday afternoon saying he will object to the certification of the Presidential election.
Jacobs says due to the ongoing pandemic, several states made unprecedented changes to their electoral systems without the authorization of their respective state legislatures as the Constitution dictates. In addition to this, Jacobs says many Americans still have concerns about the integrity of the presidential election, adding that such concerns have yet to be properly adjudicated.
