Senator Doug Mastriano is attempting today to get enough support to pass a resolution that would enable Pennsylvania to exercise their constitutional authority to seat the electors themselves and decide which electors to send to DC to vote for president. But enough of his colleagues need to support it in order for it to pass.
CALL THEM AND EMAIL!!! (PREFERABLY CALL). LET THEM KNOW HOW YOU FEEL. DEMAND THEY DO THIS. IF THEY DON'T, DEMAND TO KNOW WHY.
IF THEIR VOICEMAIL IS FULL, EMAIL THEM, AND THEN CALL BACK LATER.

Doug Mastriano was on War Room this morning in case you missed it. The PA senate leadership was dragging their feet and Doug said we needed to contact the legislature:

And remember: Even if the resolution is introduced and passes, enough republicans in both houses are going to have to flip to supporting Trump electors, not Biden. Remember how weak-kneed they are!
If you live outside Pennsylvania, you can still contact the Senate and House leadership:
Senate Pro Tem (republican): Jake Corman / (717) 787-1377 / (814) 355-0477 /

Speaker of the House of Reps (republican): Bryan Cutler / (717) 284-1965 / (717) 783-6424 /
Majority leader of House of Reps (republican): Kerry A. Benninghoff / +1 (814) 355-1300 / (717) 783-1918 /
Mike regan is my representative. Went to voice mail for all 3 numbers. Hopefully lots of people called and he supports mastrianos plan.
IT IS A TERRIBLY WRITTEN RESOLUTION! Needs a cleaner version!!! Much cleaner!
Dear PA State Senator MASTRIANO, and to all 50 State Legislatures,
You don't need to "override" State Laws. The US Constitution gives current States' Legislatures the power to appoint their respective State's Electors. No State Law, No governor, No judge, No past legislature, No case law, etc. can usurpe that from the current legislature. The Governor, or any Executive officer/official/employee; does not have legal power in the appointment of Electors. Elections officials have no legal power to appoint Electors.
It's not legally possible for past State Legislatures(eg the PA 1938 legislature and governor to pass it into law) to deligate the appointing ELECTORs on an ongoing basis; and even when they do, it's still always advisory to the current State's Leglislature.
Governors play no legal role in appointing Electors; so any "bill/law" which requires his signature; or any State Consitiutional Amendment/law/words which gives Electors to the "Election vote" or by "Congressional district" or whatever is on it's face unconstitutional.
The State Legislatures do not even need a governor to call them into session, to do their Constitutional job of appointing Electors.
Just get enough fellow State Legislature officials together for quarum, and you can appoint your State's Electors. Drafting a Resolution for Electors is as simple and clean as my Quaker beliefs. Resolution should be as legally clean and simple as:
...
"ON ____ Date, at ____ Place in PA: We, the sworn and lawful, Legislature of PA, hereby appoint our State's Electors for the 2020 POTUS/VP Election as:
Name #1
Name #2
Name #3
etc.
And the above Names are to show up at _____ Date, at _____ Place in PA to cast their votes as per the US Constitution for POTUS & for VP.
Signed _______ Date_______
Signed _______ Date_______
..."
Make sure the Electors meet the Constituional requirements as written in the US Constitution.
Make sure the State Legislature has enough signatures & quarum.
Make sure the Electors Named, know, so they show up to vote.
Send copies of the above out, and for the archives. ...
Keep it going Pedes. SEND IT ALONG! A WIN & WIN Plan:

And Get your Republican State Legislatures to appoint their DJT/Pence Electors!
