Pennsylvania State Senate Majority Leader Jake Corman, a Republican, dismissed a demand by some conservatives to appoint pro-Trump voters to the Electoral College, as Pennsylvania now appears to secure the election of Democrat Joe Biden.
Donald Trump Jr. was one of those pushing a message from conservative talk show host Mark Levin, which was that Republican state legislatures should nominate pro-Trump voters to the Electoral College, which could return the presidency to Trump. .
Mark Levin’s tweet was flagged by Twitter for spreading misleading information about the 2020 presidential election
REMINDER TO THE REPUBLICAN STATE LEGISLATURES, YOU HAVE THE FINAL SAYING ON THE ELECTION OF ELECTORS, NOT ANY BOARD OF ELECTIONS, SECRETARY OF STATE, GOVERNOR OR EVEN COURT. YOU HAVE THE FINAL SAID – ARTICLE II OF THE FED CONSTITUTION. SO BE PREPARED TO DO YOUR CONSTITUTIONAL DUTY, ‘Levin wrote.
The tweet was slapped with a Twitter warning tag that read: “Some or all of the content shared in this tweet is in dispute and could be misleading about an election or other civic process.”

Trump Jr. sent several tweets on Friday expressing dismay that his father was losing in four key states: Pennsylvania, Arizona, Nevada and Georgia.

National trends show that Democrats tend to live in more urban settings, while Republican voters are in smaller rural counties.
Biden has been able to catch up with Trump in Pennsylvania and Georgia because the prominent votes were from cities like Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Atlanta and Savannah.
For months, Trump also warned his supporters against using mail-in ballots, suggesting they would be ready for fraud.
That, however, led to the majority of his supporters’ ballots being counted on or after Election Day, followed by mail-in ballots being counted.
Those mail-in ballots, even in Republican counties, have still favored Biden.
Speaking to Fox News Channel Friday morning about the situation in Pennsylvania, Corman did not echo the widespread fraud accusations like the president and his son.
He complained that poll watchers were staying too far away in Philadelphia and suggested there might be an “interesting count” there.
“I have no evidence of any crime,” Corman said.
