CALLER (GUEST): I have a question for you. Since Democrats are pushing H.R.1, what they call "election reform" -- how are we ever going to get a Republican back in office? 

HANNITY (HOST): Well, I mean, the answer to that question is -- if they get it in place, I don't know how we ever undo it.

Now, there is a way to stop it, they need a quorum.

And if Republicans unite together -- that would include Mitt Romney, that would include "Ben Sasse the Jackass", that would include Lisa Murkowski, and everybody else, they could leave the chamber and not have a quorum, and that's not a vote -- a tie vote -- that Kamala Harris could break.

So, they can stop it if they unite. Now, I'm gonna invite Mitch McConnell on this show and on TV and I'm gonna ask Mitch McConnell if he will insist that his members do that.
