The effort to challenge the Congressional certification of Georgia’s Electoral College slate failed late Wednesday night.

The effort was led by Lake Area Congressman Jody Hice.

Georgia U.S. Senator Kelly Loeffler had originally committed to joining the objection, but changed her mind after Wednesday violence at the U.S. Capitol.

No other U.S. Senator joined the objection, meaning it immediately failed.

Georgia’s 16 electoral votes were awarded to Joe Biden.

Early Thursday morning, Congress declared Joe Biden the winner of the Electoral College.
