St. Louis, MO (December 30, 2020) – Today, after Senator Josh Hawley announced he’ll object to the certification of President-Elect Joe Biden’s victory, Missouri Democratic Party Chair Michael Butler released the following statement:

“President-Elect Joe Biden won a fair and free election, winning both the popular vote and the Electoral College. It’s past time to stop with the malarkey and move forward with a peaceful transition of power. Refusing to listen to the will of Americans and slowing this transition or refusing to work with the Biden transition team is dangerous and irresponsible.”
