Michael Glotzer @mglo.bsky.social · 10/09/2026I would seem to be there is a way to thwart these maneuverings is for sufficient GOP members (> 6) of the house to resign prior to Jan 3rd in order to hand the majority to the democrats who can then appoint a law abiding clerk and seat house members who were duly elected. 000
