I’ve been considering the election ending at SCOTUS and I don’t see the President having votes invalidated and not counting thousands of ballots and winning that way.
I think instead what will happen is that SCOTUS will invalidate some of the states elections due to rampant fraud so that there’s no way either candidate can get to 270 then it goes to the house based on this info in the Atlantic article.

What Happens If the 2020 Election Is a Tie?
The House of Representatives resolves inconclusive presidential elections—and while Democrats may hold most of the seats, Republicans control more state delegations.

That raises questions. If the election for a state is invalidated, that also invalidates the house and senate races in those states, doesn’t it. At least that’s what I think I read somewhere.
So theoretically, that would mean that the House on Jan 3 would be constituted differently than we have been thinking?
I’ve been reading that the SOS of the various states can’t certify just part of the election - It’s all or nothing?
