If there is a contested election, Nancy Pelosi DOES NOT automatically become acting-President. There are scenarios under which the House decides the outcome, but that does not automatically mean Pelosi is chosen. She might not even be Speaker of the House by the time Congress would enter the fray.

In fact, there are certain ways that having an election decided by the House could be advantageous to President Trump. More on that later.

I just read an article that said the blue states are allowing up to 30 days to manufacture, er' I mean to count all the mail-in ballets.. I'll bet they can "find" a whole lot of votes in that amount of time...

As long as they aren't manufacturing votes in 2016 red states.

Do more Biden votes in Illinois, New York and California change anything?

So, if it’s NOT settled by 1/20/21, they just shutter the White House and send the Trump folks HOME???

It WILL be settled one way or the other.
