The original count, the recount, nothing has ever been changing who gets elected, this is an exercise of finding what caused the error, but the four winners have all -- from day one -- remained to be the same four winners.

We've seen a pattern in this country, an unfortunate pattern. When law enforcement alone are the only persons with access to critical evidence, like this kind of video, the process is to minimize the conduct, to keep it out of the eyes of the public and to protect the police officers, however, when this video is made public, typically by camera footage or cell phone footage like in the case of George Floyd... that public pressure turns out to be very effective in moving elected officials to hold police officers accountable, so that's what we're looking forward to in this case.

Keeping citizens safe should be the top priority of every elected official, last year, we watched as cities across America were ravaged by violence and crime because their leaders repeatedly chose to abandon law enforcement and bend the knee to the radical Left. We are a nation of law and order, and we should be working to support police departments more, not less. City officials who willingly ignore the rule of law, fight to defund law enforcement, and allow chaos to reign supreme, should not be given federal funds – plain and simple.

If you run for office and if you get elected to Congress, you've got to be willing to lose it, you know, or else you can't do the job. I think a lot of people have their egos and their entire personalities tied up with being a member of Congress. And all the perks that go along with that. I think they need to be willing to walk away from it, and I think they need to think not just about the next election or the next news cycle, I think they need to think about history. I think they need to think about how they're going to be judged and, you know, what future generations are going to say about this moment.
