The Constitution doesn’t allow for moral judgements in deciding which elector slates to open

All Pence had to do was to return questionable slates of ballots back to the states for a reconciliation (PA had 200,000 more votes than registered voters as an example). Had he done that, the scene at the Capitol would have been avoided. If our constitution is a roadmap to hell, I suggest we get off the road immediately.

Pence would have done well to remember that election laws are 100% delegated to the STATES.

He never had to put himself in the situation of having to pick-a-prez.

All the little weenie had to do was follow the Constitution he claims to hold so dear, send the entire mess back to the states for them to figure out with a hearty “Godspeed”.

Indeed. Pence was faced with conflicting/competing EC vote slates resulting from voter irregularities/fraud challenges. It would have been 100% constitutional for him to remand the EC votes back to the respective states for reconciliation.
