The final step is that the electors must meet in their respective state capitals on December 14th and complete the Certificates of Vote. The state legislature may be able to stop that from happening as a last resort with the wrong people, but it doesn’t prevent the governor from sending in a differt slate of electors to Congress somehow. Then it gets interesting.
Those would be the electors confirmed yesterday?

The governor doesn't have the power to do that. Under current law the legislature doesn't have the power to do that either. If they go ahead and appoint a competing slate without any sort of judicial decision invalidating the election then I don't see that second slate being recognized.

It could, but I highly doubt it will.
The goal is to make sure mail-in voting never happens again
In PA.
six days before the time fixed for the meeting of the electors, such determination made pursuant to such law so existing on said day, and made at least six days prior to said time of meeting of the electors, shall be conclusive, and shall govern in the counting of the electoral votes as provided in the Constitution, and as hereinafter regulated, so far as the ascertainment of the electors appointed by such State is concerned.
But if the two Houses shall disagree in respect of the counting of such votes, then, and in that case, the votes of the electors whose appointment shall have been certified by the executive of the State, under the seal thereof, shall be counted.3 U.S. Code § 15 (Counting electoral votes in Congress)
A PREMATURE concession doesn’t mean a thing if it turns out the data he had been told triggered that concession.
IF the data was fraudulent, then back to square one.
Thanks! Perhaps the same in Michigan.....but they’ve already certified? There’s so much going on....did someone file a lawsuit in Michigan? I’m pretty sure they did in Wisconsin...I want to see John James in the Congress
