The Electoral College is not a real institution and never meets. States appoint electors who vote. Those Electors vote in their states (that is the Electoral College). These votes are sealed and transmitted to Dick Cheney who opens and has them counted before Congress.

From what I understand this is the only place where qualifications come into the picture. This occurs Jan. 3.

“From what I understand this is the only place where qualifications come into the picture. This occurs Jan 3.”

The joint session of Congress wherein eligibility may be challenged occurs on Jan 6.

We are watching you very carefully citizen :-).
(You are thinking of the date the terms of Senators and Reps expires.)
