Two of the House Republicans who voted to try to overturn the 2020 Presidential Election are running for the U.S. Senate this year.

Both Ted Budd (#NCSen) and Markwayne Mullin (#OKSen) voted to exclude the electors in Arizona as well as the electors in Pennsylvania.
In addition, both of these Senate candidates signed onto a Supreme Court Amicus Brief which asked the Court to throw out the results in four different states which Trump lost (Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin).
In Budd’s case, this means that the Republican Senate candidate in a state Trump barely won (NC was the state Trump won by the slimmest margin) tried to get the election tossed out in his neighboring state, Georgia, which Trump lost (GA borders NC).
