The 20th Amendment states “if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified...”

I am still trying to find the place in the Constitution where it states that a Representative and Senator may submit an objection in writing on the day that the ballots are counted in the Congress. I know it’s there somewhere!

“...where it states that a Representative and Senator may submit an objection in writing on the day that the ballots are counted in the Congress.”

Actually, it can be found in 3USC15 (1948).
Please see my About page.
