As of Nov. 16 at 2pm ET, only two of Ohio's 13 Republicans in Congress have acknowledged (either in public remarks or statements sent to me) that @JoeBiden is the president-elect.
The @AP and other major news organizations called the race nine days ago.
On Nov. 9, I reached out to all 13 Republicans in Ohio's congressional delegation with two questions:

@senrobportman Throughout the Senate trial, I documented my attempts to speak w/ @senrobportman in this thread ⤵️

1) “The Russian government interfered in the 2016 presidential election in sweeping and systematic fashion."
2) “Although the investigation established that the Russian gov't perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency...and...the Campaign expected it would benefit...the investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated w/ the Russian[s]"
If you’re just waking up, Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s office has announced that Roger Stone, a longtime associate of @realDonaldTrump, was arrested this morning for seven counts:
- Obstruction of an official proceeding
- Five counts of false statements
- Witness tampering
Here is the 24-page indictment outlining the charges against Roger Stone:
From pg 2: In “summer of 2016, STONE spoke to senior Trump Campaign officials about [WikiLeaks] & information it might have had that would be damaging to the Clinton Campaign. STONE was contacted by senior Trump Campaign officials to inquire about future releases by [WikiLeaks].”
