J6 was centered around the notion that they had a “chance” to change or stop the certification of electoral votes for the US president. Afaik, no such process exists for US senators or reps. Their certification is by the state that elects them.
All that said, they are likely to try something, it will just look different and require different expectations to thwart.
Which means bad faith governors and MAGA statehouses may defy an election in which a Democrat unseats a MAGA. Do you think Florida’s radically MAGA Statehouse is going to be happy about certifying a Democratic Governor or Senator? How about Texas? How about Kansas?
We aren’t out of the woods just because we’re at a state level. The state MAGAs may be more virulently dishonest than the Feds (other than Trump, he’s the clear champion of corruption).
Probably why I said what I did at the end then, huh? If the problem is going to be multiple states rejecting certification, then expecting “another J6” isn’t going to help.
It’s not even over then! Why wouldn’t they try a congressional j6 there were no consequences last time
