Hawley scores raucous applause when he brings up objection to Electoral College certification

As Sen. Josh Hawley brought up his objection to the Electoral College certification, the crowd before him at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) erupted in a standing ovation, cheers and a “USA” chant. 

"What was the result of that? I was called a traitor," he told the crowd, "I was called seditious, the radical left said I should resign," or be forced out, he said. "Over the last six weeks the radical left, their corporate allies and the liberal media have tried to cancel me, censor me, expel me, shut me down, stop me from representing the people of Missouri, stop me from representing you, and guess what? I'm here today, I'm not going anywhere and I'm not backing down," Hawley said.
