>and the invalid slates of electors.

They weren’t invalid though the legislatures sent them, GOP controlled.

Rand didn’t want to overturn it because he felt this would destroy the EC and set a terrible precedent.

That’s what he said, anyway.

Congress is not meant to pick the president.

The shoe could easily be on the other foot.

Also, from what I understand they didn’t have the numbers in the House so the whole thing would have been futile?

So having a usurper in the White House is not terrible precedent? The Constitution is not a set of untried precedents; it is law.
