Read full article: Which local Republican reps decided to confirm, challenge electoral vote?That attack changed some minds and changed how some members of Congress voted to reject or keep the electors from contested states on Wednesday. It’s not going to change the outcome but it’s going to send a message and it’s going to make a point. Voting to reject the electors was newly sworn-in Republican Congressman Carlos Gimenez of Miami. He said in a statement: “I have become convinced that the electors in some states were selected in an unconstitutional manner. I simply cannot vote to upload a slate of electors under those circumstances.”CLARIFICATION: An earlier version of this story mistakenly suggested that Sen. Marco Rubio indicated which way he would vote on electors before the vote.
