Yes, but the XII Amendment, read together with the Electoral Vote Counting Act of 1877 does not say, "The President of the Senate, prior to signing the certification, shall contact philman_36 and, based upon philman_36's opinion, shall certify the vote, or not".
It doesn't say that at all, does it?
Do you think it's deceitful to reference an opinion that has no relevance to the topic? (that's not rhetorical)
