Rep. Andy Harris

In a slick move that may get him nominated for "MAGA Cultist of the Year," Republican Rep. Andy Harris of North Carolina suggested that in view of the ravages of Hurricane Helene increasing the difficulty of voters getting to the polls, the Republican-controlled state legislature should convene to award the state's electors.

"We know how people in those counties would vote anyway," stated Harris, who chairs the ultra-conservative Freedom Caucus in the House of Representatives.

Since the state legislature is majority Republican, what Representative Harris is actually saying is "give our state's electors to Trump."

Another Republican, Rep. Patrick McHenry, told reporters Friday he hadn’t heard about the plan proposed by Harris, but that “it makes no sense whatsoever to prejudge the election outcome. And that is a misinformed view of what is happening on the ground in North Carolina, bless his heart.”
