The 2024 presidential election has left the United States at a crossroads.
In a recent TikTok video, user @we.wont.go_back issued an urgent call to action, urging Americans to contact their representatives in Congress and demand they object to the certification.
The certification of the electoral votes is a cornerstone of American democracy. If Congress fails to uphold the Constitution and allows fraudulent results to stand, it could set a dangerous precedent, eroding public trust and paving the way for authoritarianism.
The Democratic Party has a critical role to play in defending democracy. By objecting to the certification of fraudulent results, Democratic lawmakers can send a powerful message that the rule of law will not be subverted.
However, this requires courage and unity. As the template message states, “Failure to try through lawful objections will erode all confidence and trust in the Democratic Party.”

Hello Senator / Congressman [Insert Name],
I’m [Your Name], your constituent in the great state of [Your State], calling you to remind you to uphold the oath you took this past January 3, 2025, to uphold and defend the United States Constitution during today’s joint session to certify the next President of the United States of America.
Inscribed into the Department of Justice in Washington, DC, is political philosopher John Locke’s quote: “Where law ends, tyranny begins” — which is what will occur if you fail to challenge the illegitimate projected victory of Donald Trump per his violation of his Article 2 oath, subverting Article 6, Supremacy Clause authority for personal gain.
If the rule of law is derived from the Constitution and Trump subverted this provision, the Democratic failure to object is your direct violation of Article 6, Section 3 — defaulting us into a state of anarchy without law and Constitution.
I expect nothing less than for you and the [Your State] Democratic legislature to exhaust all lawful Constitutional authorities to defend Constitutional legitimacy against all Constitutional threats, including those with US citizenship, limitless funds, and king-like political influence.
There is no Constitutional provision that allows you to sacrifice the People’s social contract for decorum, tradition, or dejure. Failure to try through lawful objections will erode all confidence and trust in the Democratic Party.
[Insert Representative’s Name], I will stand with you and the Democratic Party for as long as you stand for the US Constitution. Breaking your oath will be a betrayal to Americans, the Constitution, American founding fathers, and civil rights heroes like Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks, and Harvey Milk.
You have my blessing to maximize constitutional authority to defend our constitutional republic. Whether our republic ends depends on the Democratic guts to try.

Thank you.
Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [Your City, State, ZIP Code]
Step 3: Send Your Message
Once you’ve personalized the message, send it to your representative via email, phone, or social media. Here’s how:
Email: Most representatives have an email form on their official website.
Phone: Call their office directly. Be polite but firm in delivering your message.
Social Media: Tag your representative on platforms like Twitter or Facebook to amplify your message.
As @we.wont.go_back emphasized in his TikTok video, “This is not about politics. This is about the survival of our democracy. We cannot afford to stay silent.”
A Call to Action: Stand Up for Democracy
The time to act is now. Every call, email, and message sent to Congress is a step toward protecting democracy and ensuring that the will of the people is upheld.
As John Locke warned, “Where law ends, tyranny begins.” Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen.
