-- LOL - the Congress - it falls on the House when it comes to the President...got it? OK. --

The person having the greatest Number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice. And if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then the Vice-President shall act as President, as in the case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President.

Somewhere in the US Constitution

That's if the electors are contested - and "and if no person have such majority" [also somewhere in the Constitution] And if you really think that is how this is going to go down - then I have some bridges for you.

Because Trump - as of right now - is 1-50+ including a 9-0 slapdown by the SCOTUS...and every single JUDGE TRUMP HAS EVER APPOINTED that has ruled on this - which means Biden will get 306 votes - and that little bit you just highlighted is WORTHLESS.

Good grief. Put on your big boy pants - get ready to fight in 2022. They said it was the end in 2008...and it wasn't. And it isn't NOW.
