objecting to a state's election process and /or electoral votes is not sedition. in fact, it's been done by Democratic senators after the 2000, 2004, and 2016 elections. this is part of the democratic process.

sorry, but participating in the democratic process is not sedition.
and i would hope we never allow mobs to dictate our participation in the democratic process. whether it involves tallying (or objecting to) electoral votes or confirming a supreme court justice.
I do not believe widespread election fraud invalidated the results of the 2020 election. I condemn anyone who participated in or advocated for the violence and other illegal behavior at the capitol last Wednesday. But I also have many criticisms the US election system. When am I allowed to discuss them without "inciting violence"?
It has been five days now. The people involved in that riot are long gone.
that's exactly my point. we should never allow a mob to influence our democracy; whether it is confirming a new president or a supreme court justice.
and objecting to the election procedures within a certain state is very much part of our democracy.
Next election. Depending on who gets elected.
