I wish I could say no but have seen nothing more than this. Everyone claims they are doing their constitutional duty.

Sen. Joni Ernst, Iowa's junior Republican senator, was also asked about the Electoral College vote by reporters in Washington, D.C.

"Like it or not, I know for Iowans it's disappointing. But the process is what it is and the Constitution will be followed," she told reporters on Capitol Hill on Monday.

Asked if that means Biden is the president-elect, Ernst said, "if that's what the Electoral College decides today."



Sen. Chuck Grassley, Iowa's senior Republican senator, has said since last month that Biden would be president-elect once the Electoral College voted.

Asked by reporters on Capitol Hill on Monday if it was time to acknowledge Biden as president-elect, Grassley said "I don't have to, the Constitution does."
