Not a single legislature in any state has certified a competing slate of electors.

Was not aware that State Legislatures certify the votes. Thought that was usually the Secretary of State or the Governor.

They didn't certify them either.

Constitutionally the legislature determines how electors are chosen. In the past election that was done by the voters. If there is to be a competing slate of electors then the legislature has to chose them. Yesterday none of them did.

The state legislatures are the ultimate authority.

In all cases they have delegated the role to elections, the executive and SOS.

However, they maintain the constitutional authority to name the electors directly, and without regard to any other entity in the state. It’s plenary authority.

None have chosen to do so, despite all the headlines posted by dumbasses in the last 24hrs.
