Sen. Ted Cruz, House GOP Object To Arizona’s Electoral Votes
quote:
Updated Jan 6, 2021, 02:25pm EST TOPLINE A group of House Republicans led by Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Az.) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) objected to Arizona’s electoral votes for President-elect Joe Biden in Congress Wednesday, with other state challenges likely to follow, marking the first time in more than 15 years lawmakers from both chambers of Congress have objected to a state’s electoral results — though the strategy is certain to fail.

Both chambers of Congress’ debates over the Arizona electoral votes were abruptly halted Wednesday afternoon as pro-Trump supporters appeared to enter the U.S. Capitol building.

A timeline of the Jan. 6 Capitol attack — including when and how Trump responded
quote:
1:05 p.m. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi bangs the gavel to call the joint session of Congress to order.
Shortly after that, Trump ends his speech.
"We're going to the Capitol," he says. "We're going to try and give them [Republicans] the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country."
Trump returns to the White House. He does not go to the Capitol.
About two minutes later, in the House chambers, Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., rises to question the election results from his state.
"I rise for myself and 60 of my colleagues to object to the counting of the electoral ballots of Arizona," Gosar declares.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, joins in Gosar's objection.
The House and Senate split to deliberate the objection in separate parts of the Capitol building.

Shortly after 2 p.m. Protesters break windows and climb into the Capitol. They open doors for others to follow.
Secret Service agents whisk Pence off the Senate floor.
A few minutes later, Pelosi is ushered off the House floor.
2:20 p.m.
The Senate is called to recess, and the House is called to recess shortly after.
