Billboard campaign calls on Stefanik to resign
Two billboards calling on U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-Schuylerville, to resign because of her efforts to challenge the results of the 2020 presidential election are scheduled to go up on Wednesday.
The Republican Accountability Project is putting up the billboards in Queensbury and Fort Ann that say: “You Lied About the Election. The Capitol Was Attacked. Stefanik: Resign.”
The Queensbury billboard is located on Route 9 about 1,000 feet north of the intersection with Quaker Road and faces north. The Fort Ann one is on Route 149, facing east, and is located 6-1/2 miles east of Route 9.
The project is funded by Republicans and is targeting lawmakers who raised objections during the certification on Jan. 6 of the Electoral College results in battleground states won by Democratic President Joe Biden over Republican former President Donald Trump.

Seen here is a mock-up of billboards that are scheduled to go up on Wednesday in Queensbury and Fort Ann asking U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-Schuylerville, to resign because of her efforts to challenge the presidential election. The group behind the billboard campaign, the Republican Accountability Project, said the actions of lawmakers to cast doubt on the election incited the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

Former Impeachment Manager Rep. Val Demings joins Ali Velshi to discuss the Capitol attack and the upcoming Senate impeachment trial for Trump. Demings points out, “during the first impeachment trial we tried to make it as clear as possible that if we do not hold this president accountable, he will do it again. He is habitual offender.” She added that any lawyer on his defense team would have to be “a magician to try to stand on the Senate floor and defend this President's wrongdoing when the images are so clear and convincing.”
