Utah Republican Sen. Mike Lee, a staunch supporter of President Donald Trump and a key ally during the president’s Senate impeachment hearings, is reportedly circulating a letter to several fellow Senators opposing a plan to object to certifying the Electoral College vote.
Lee, who was once described as “the quiet force” that got Trump acquitted of charges he abused his power, and who spoke regularly to the White House and Trump’s attorneys as the president navigated both the House and Senate processes, appears to be among the president’s most vocal opponents on Wednesday, as a dozen Senators step up to challenge Electors from several states where, they claim, the presidential vote may have been tainted by widespread fraud.
