[Republic If You Can Keep It]

I think the person who said it is the incoming Congress that votes was wrong...

Dales, that would be me!

I still think I'm right, since the EV's are officially opened & counted in Congress (Joint Session) in January. The election cannot be thrown into the House until then.

By that time the new membership will be seated.

I think you are right. The 20th Amendment was passed partly to make it so that it would be the new House (since the old House could have just been repudiated by the voters).
