Except there were no legitimate “competing sets of votes in play” in any states. There were several states where GOP electors met and cast votes for Donald Trump on the same day the official electors for Biden met and cast their votes, but that was done as a necessary step to ensure that those Trump electoral votes met the legal requirements under the U.S. Constitution in the event the state election results were successfully challenged.
None of the challenges were successful, so the “competing sets of votes” were moot.
I’m not Mike Pence’s biggest fan, but on this point he was correct. As the one who presides over the joint session of Congress, his job is to count the votes that are given to him. That’s it.
Unfortunately, “his being correct on point” as you alluded to has brought this country to turmoil and looks like soon third world status.
You clearly do not know how to fight a political war.
Pence only had to DECLARE it so, and then act on what he declared.
Triggering a constitutional crises was exactly the right thing to do.
We have no obligation to be objective to liars and cheats. Absolutely none.
