“It goes to the other system of each state delegation getting one vote if the electoral college fails to produce a majority”
____________________________________________________
A claim was made that Pence would throw out all the votes of the contested states, leaving both candidates without a majority. Then the vote would move to the House.
If Pence throws out all votes of the contested states,
then Trump will get 232 and byedone 227, and Trump wins, because the votes of those states do not count and no one has to get to 270!
an objection to an elector or electors on January 6, 2021, there is a recent precedent. In January 2005, Representative Stephanie Tubbs Jones and Senator Barbara Boxer objected to Ohio’s electoral votes for George W. Bush, alleging “they were not in all known circumstances regularly given.” The House and Senate met separately as required and using a roll call vote the objections were widely rejected. The House denied the objection in 31-267 vote, and the Senate denied it in a 1-74 vote.
