(Confirming Pelosi picks next Prez if elec college not certified!)

1. Actually not quite how that works

But good for him for not knowing.

[cilla4progress]

3. Elaborate?

Please?

2. That's a deflection...

and not how it works. If the election went to the House, it would be state by state, with each state getting one vote. Trump would probably win that.

5. 12th Amendment stuff is pretty loose, but 2/3 would be needed. This is theatre.

The comments there are completely insane. People actually believe this conspiracy crap.

7. incorrect.

only if there is a tie would they do the state by state voting. Otherwise it goes to who has the majority of certified EVs.

4. I feel like this is a narrative the Rs would love to hang their hat on.

They won't care if it is wrong, and nor will their base. They will say Nancy Pelosi installed Joe Biden and use it for 4 years to delegitimize the Presidency day in and day out.

6. I guess Cornyn is herding cats for the first time in his life!
