“The United States is a republic whose leaders are democratically elected. These elections, in turn, must comply with the Constitution and federal and state laws.

Senator James Lankford, who also joined the challenge, said on Twitter on Saturday, “Today, I join a group of senators in proposing an election committee to address election issues.”
