0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Pennsylvania. Republicans hold the majority in that state legislature. On Tuesday,

0:00:03.960 --> 0:00:07.880
<v Speaker 1>they prevented Democrats state Senator Jim Brewster from being seated

0:00:07.880 --> 0:00:10.800
<v Speaker 1>for the new term. The issue was mail in ballots.

0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:14.440
<v Speaker 1>Mr Brewster, the Democrat, defeated his Republican opponent, by just

0:00:14.520 --> 0:00:17.959
<v Speaker 1>sixty seven votes, but three hundred eleven mail in ballots

0:00:17.960 --> 0:00:21.239
<v Speaker 1>were counted even though they were not dated. That's a

0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:25.079
<v Speaker 1>violation of the state's election law. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court,

0:00:25.160 --> 0:00:29.080
<v Speaker 1>run by liberal Democrats, ignored the law. Surprise, they said

0:00:29.120 --> 0:00:31.920
<v Speaker 1>these ballots could be counted. So Republicans took the case

0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:35.800
<v Speaker 1>to federal court, where it is still pending. Meanwhile, Democrat

0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman tried to seat Mr Brewer. Republicans

0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:44.080
<v Speaker 1>and what the media calls an unusual move, said no way.

0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:47.360
<v Speaker 1>They voted to remove the Lieutenant governor as the presiding

0:00:47.440 --> 0:00:50.599
<v Speaker 1>officer of the proceedings and then refused to seat Mr

0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Brewster until further review. Now, of course, the Democrats went ballistic.

0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Pennsylvania's Democrat hacked Governor Tom wolf accused Republicans of subverting

0:00:59.360 --> 0:01:02.880
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats process. Democrats, is that all of you know

0:01:02.960 --> 0:01:05.600
<v Speaker 1>by now? Believe they are entitled to bend the law

0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:08.480
<v Speaker 1>or to break it, or to stomp on it or

0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:12.399
<v Speaker 1>ignore it whenever their powers at stake and anybody gets

0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>in their way is subversive. Thankfully, it seems Pennsylvania Republicans

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:21.400
<v Speaker 1>have had enough and they actually want their election laws followed.

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 1>It's a novel concept. Will keep track here
