Where it says the Congress decides the election. That also negates it entertaining any “quo warrento” challenge to the Congress and state’s determination.

No, Congress certifies the election, in modern practice, based upon certifications by state governors as to who won each states presidential electors. The power to declare fraudulently certified winner of the electoral vote, through a writ of quo warranto is a judicial power given to the federal courts in Article III. Congress has no power to issue such a writ, since to do so, violates separation of powers.

I realize you hate the Constitution for not giving you what you want in this instance.

'Tis you who hate the Constitution for not being written in the Napoleonic Code style of France. Ours is common law tradition, and the judicial power in the constitution is dispensed with common sense. You also hate the Guarantee Clause of the constitution, which guarantees us a "Republican form of government". You leftists really hate that idea.

“Congress certifies the election, in modern practice,”
NOT “in modern practice” LOL!
What a stupid lie.

Our Founders set a method for the states and people to elect the President- and you hate it.
I don’t care, I think you’re fools to dispute our Founders.
