Congress has the authority to throw out California's electoral votes provided there is a challenge to those votes and both Houses of Congress vote to throw them out.

Congress could theoretically refuse to seat California's senators and congressmen, but that would reopen Powell v. House of Representatives, in which the Supreme Court decided in Adam Clayton Powell's favor.
