Even if everything you said would have happened, the vote would have been certified by the remaining members of Congress at any location they chose.
Big corporations make a ton of money from a stable America, what you describe would have resulted in the entire country shutting down, riots, boycotts....and all the kids and grandkids of the huge corporation CEOs would have had their cushy lives messed up.
Corporate America would have told the Repugs behind the scenes to get the election certified and move on. Sure they like Repug tax cuts....but they also need a stable country to make money, they would rather have a Democrat than Trump as a dictator ruling over a country shut down by strikes and cities being burnt to the ground.
