Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, charged Sunday that Democrats wanted to win the Nov. 3 vote “after the election,” and used the “chaos” and “confusion” around massive mail-in balloting to do so.

In an interview on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures," Jordan, who is among House Republicans who will challenge the Electoral vote when it convenes Wednesday to certify the win by Joe Biden, said GOP lawmakers knew last summer about Democrats’ aims.

“The Oversight Committee and Republicans on the Judiciary Committee put out this report and we said Democrats were going to do that,” he said. “We called this last summer and said on election night President [Donald] Trump is going to be winning but [Democrats] want the chaos and confusion created around mail-in voting….”

“They wanted this chaos and confusion because they were going to win the election after the election,” he said. “And that's what they did with this crazy mail-in ballot scheme that they undertook… [and] several of these states did it in an unconstitutional fashion. That is the heart of our argument.”

On Wednesday, Jordan said Americans will “see what was done in an unconstitutional fashion.”

“Ruth Bader Ginsberg, the late [Supreme Court] justice, said this, ‘The ultimate date of significance is January 6,’” he said.

“This is how the process works. The ultimate arbiter here, the ultimate check and balance is the United States Congress, and when something is done in an unconstitutional fashion, which happened in several of these states, we have a duty to step forward and have this debate and have this vote on the sixth of January.”
