You have cited a Federal statute extensively. In my previous post I was referring to the U.S. Constitution. The process you’ve described there in that statute can not hold up to any constitutional scrutiny. As that law is written, it would be perfectly legal for Congress to reject electoral votes from one or more states even if there was never any dispute about the validity of those electoral votes.

That chapter of US Code was rewritten in 2022 by Congress.

Yes, I did. It was the US Code since 1948, so it's been in place for 75 years.

FYI... I accidentally post the link to the current code; here is the link to the prior version of the code.

The code was intended to put into law the process for complying with the Constitution.
