Two Butler County state representatives signed onto a resolution Friday that seeks to overturn the state's certification of votes for president and vice president.

Reps. Daryl Metcalfe, R-12th, and Aaron Bernstine, R-10th, were signatories on a resolution disputing the statewide contest results and “urges” Gov. Tom Wolf and Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar to vacate the state's certification of presidential electors and other statewide contests.

“It is absolutely imperative that we take these steps if we are to ensure public trust in our electoral system,” the 26 Republican legislators said in a statement Friday. “Faith in government begins with faith in the elections, which select the government.”

Arguing without evidence and without references to any such instances, the representatives stated there were “documented irregularities and improprieties” that led them to take this action.

Although Joe Biden, a Democrat, received more votes than his opponents, two of three statewide “row” offices went to Republican candidates. This resolution seeks to strip the certification of those votes as well, but not for more local races.

Notably, many of the state's top Republicans did not sign on to the resolution. Neither House Speaker Bryan Cutler, R-100th, nor House Majority Leader Kerry Benninghoff, R-171st, are signatories to the resolution.

Benninghoff and Senate Majority Leader Jake Corman, R-34th, both said in October they do not believe the Legislature can intervene in the selection of presidential and vice presidential electors as state law explicitly states those electors are awarded to the candidate who receives the most votes in the state.

The resolution was also introduced the same day a federal judge called President Donald Trump's campaign's arguments outrageous, a lawsuit in support of which Metcalfe and U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly, R-17th, filed briefs.

“Charges of unfairness are serious,” the opinion, penned by U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit Judge Stephanos Bibas, a Trump appointee, read. “But calling an election unfair does not make it so. Charges require specific allegations and then proof. We have neither here.”

The state House's session ends after Monday, after which time all pending legislation dies.
