In a voice vote at their bi-annual state convention this past weekend, Texas Republicans echoed repeated claims made by President Trump rejecting the election of Joe Biden as president in 2020 as being “illegitimate” and the result of widespread voter fraud.
Over the weekend, the 40-page platform was adopted by the state GOP in Houston, The Hill reported.
Here’s what the new Texas Republican Party platform reads:
“We reject the certified results of the 2020 Presidential election, and we hold that acting President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. was not legitimately elected by the people of the United States. We strongly urge all Republicans to work to ensure election integrity and to show up to vote in November of 2022, bring your friends and family, volunteer for your local Republicans, and overwhelm any possible fraud.”
The Hill report added that the results in five states were affected by “substantial election fraud in key metropolitan areas,” which caused the election results to show that Biden won, according to the platform.
Nevertheless, the Texas GOP party stated in its resolution that they would not accept Biden’s victory in 2020 and that they believed the public’s will had not been honored on Election Day.
“We reject the certified results of the 2020 presidential election, and we hold that acting President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. was not legitimately elected by the people of the United States,” the party said.
“We strongly urge all Republicans to work to ensure election integrity and to show up to vote in November of 2022, bring your friends and family, volunteer for your local Republicans, and overwhelm any possible fraud.”
Additionally, the Texas GOP platform claims that some secretaries of state violated the constitution by “illegally circumventing” state legislatures.
