What Happened This Week In Washington — And Georgia

The Senate is getting ready to vote on the objections to Arizona’s Electoral College votes now.

Graham, after a reelection bid that he won by a clearer margin than polls predicted, has a little bit more leeway here to not be as much of a Trumpist.

Portman, who is up for reelection in 2022 in increasingly-red Ohio, is one of the more interesting swing votes in the new Senate, in terms of which Republicans might occasionally support Biden. Although he’s sometimes billed as a moderate, he voted with Trump around 90 of the time, suggesting a fairly high degree of partisanship.
