Special election night edition of "COS Live"

Published in Blog on November 01, 2024 by Matt May

Since this election has been unlike any other, do something different this election night. 

Forget the quadrennial frustration of cable networks calling states too early, political hacks with whiteboards, and the cringeworthy tones of TV personalities trying to act and sound intelligent as they wonder how good their hair looks. 

Instead, watch a special election night edition of “COS Live” hosted by COS vice president for legislative affairs Rita Peters and COS regional director Andrew Lusch

Coverage begins on November 5 at 8:30 p.m. ET and can be accessed via this link

Rita and Andrew will keep you posted about the Presidential election and other important national races. But their focus will be mainly upon state legislative contests that have a significant impact on our movement to call an Article V convention to limit the power of the federal government. They will be speaking with correspondents all over the country for a unique look at what election night will mean for COS in 2025 and beyond. 

Besides, Rita’s hair always looks great and nobody on cable news or the national networks has a mustache as powerfully compelling as Andrew’s.

In addition to talking with reporters on the ground about races in key states, Rita and Andrew will welcome guests such as COS co-founder and president Mark Meckler and COS co-founder and special advisor Michael Farris

"While almost all other media outlets will be focused on the Presidential and Congressional elections," says Rita, "we'll be reporting on elections to the branch of government that actually retains most of the policymaking power under the Constitution -- your state legislatures."

This election year, stick with people you like, know, and trust. Stick with COS. 

Watch “COS Live” here on November 5 at 8:30 p.m. ET for the best and most unique election coverage in the country.

Petition your state legislator

Almost everyone knows that our federal government is on a dangerous course. The unsustainable debt combined with crushing regulations on states and businesses is a recipe for disaster.

What is less known is that the Founders gave state legislatures the power to act as a final check on abuses of power by Washington, DC. Article V of the U.S. Constitution authorizes the state legislatures to call a convention to proposing needed amendments to the Constitution. This process does not require the consent of the federal government in Washington DC.

I support Convention of States; a national movement to call a convention under Article V of the United States Constitution, restricted to proposing amendments that will impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit its power and jurisdiction, and impose term limits on its officials and members of Congress.

I want our state to be one of the necessary 34 states to pass a resolution calling for this kind of an Article V convention. You can find a copy of the model resolution and the Article V Pocket Guide (which explains the process and answers many questions) here: https://conventionofstates.com/handbook_pdf

I ask that you support Convention of States and consider becoming a co-sponsor. Please respond to my request by informing the national COS team of your position, or sending them any questions you may have:

Thank you so much for your service to the people of our district.
