Which members of Congress opposed the certification of Biden’s victory?



When a crowd of supporters of President Trump stormed the Capitol building on Wednesday, they forced an emergency recess in Congressional procedures to officially certify the results of the 2020 presidential election. The rupture occurred shortly after some Republican lawmakers made the the first of a planned series of highly unusual objections, based on spurious allegations of widespread electoral fraud, to state election results. The chambers were separately debating an objection to Arizona’s results when proceedings were halted and Capitol was closed.

When the Senate met again at 8:00 pm, and the House of Representatives an hour later, proceedings – including discussions of objections – continued, although some lawmakers who had planned to vote with opponents withdrew after the occupation of the Capitol. Here are the six senators and 121 representatives who voted to support Arizona’s objection. We will update this list on Thursday with the results of any other state objections.
