Daily News | Former Philly politico Jamie Fleet told Jan. 6 Committee that preparations for election challenges started in summer 2020
Nancy Pelosi described how Democrats were worried about former president Donald Trump’s effort to challenge the results of the 2020 election months before Americans cast their ballots.Fleet’s testimony included a dramatic description of the chilling moments for House staffers as insurrectionists attempted to batter their way into the congressional chamber.
As Democratic staff director of that committee, Fleet was responsible for a team that communicated with the Capitol Police Board leading up to Jan. 6. “The Committee on House Administration maintains oversight of federal elections and regularly prepares internal information for any potential election objections during the certification process,” said a spokesperson from Fleet’s office via email on Wednesday. “Whether or not members object to certain states’ certifications, the committee prepares state specific election information to provide appropriate guidance.
Despite Sund saying the situation would be “all hands on deck” for his officers, Fleet said Sund never mentioned that the Capitol itself was considered a target. By around 2 p.m., a mob breached the Capitol Police’s outer barrier of defense. Fleet found himself on the floor of the House among members of Congress, and described hearing rioters banging at the back door.
