Objection made for Pennsylvania, House and Senate to vote
As certification of the vote continues in Congress, an objection was made to electors from the state of Pennsylvania, which was supported by both a Republican representative and a senator, forcing a vote.
GOP Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania objected to the state's electoral count, and said he was joined by 80 of his Republican colleagues.Â
GOP Sen. Josh Hawley objected for the Senate.Â
The Joint Session of Congress is now on hold, so that the respective chambers can split up for two hours of debate. In the Senate, they chose to skip debate and immediately moved to vote.
When both do vote, the objection is expected to fail, as the one over Arizona's electors did previously.Â
Earlier, GOP Rep. Mo Brooks of Alabama attempted to object to the electoral college votes from Nevada, but because no senators joined him, the objection was not sustained.Â
"Unfortunately, no United States senator has joined in this effort," Brooks said.Â
