WASHINGTON, Jan 7 (Reuters) – The U.S. Senate overwhelmingly rejected a motion by President Donald Trump’s allies Thursday morning to object to Pennsylvania’s certification of the results of its presidential election, which granted the victory for Democrat Joe Biden, in a vote that was delayed by a violent assault on the United States Capitol.
The Senate voted 92-7 against the measure.
After the vote, US Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said on the Senate floor that he does not expect any more votes that question the electoral college results.
