The hope is both will.
The President of the Senate decides which votes to accept.
VP Pence is President of the Senate.

[Dr. Franklin]

The hope is both will. The President of the Senate decides which votes to accept. VP Pence is President of the Senate.

I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this -- who will count the votes, and how.
Josef Stalin

VP Pence will count the votes. He is extraordinarily important. VPOTUS can follow the precedent Nixon set in 1960 by deciding which slates of electors to report. It will be a big F.U. to the Dems for rigging the election. If the Senate votes along party lines, the worst that can happen is to send the presidential election to the House, and the VP election to the Senate.
