Because most of the other facts can be established by other witnesses, such as the Pence staffers who testified before the January 6th Committee, I expect Pence is one of the *last* witnesses Smith would call if he was building a case around the electoral vote certification.

For that reason, this suggests that Smiths January 6th investigation is far along. It also suggests that he is pursuing that aspect of his investigation aggressivelyhe isnt focusing largely on the Mar-a-Lago documents matter and putting January 6th on the back burner.

Its more likely Smith is building a case against Trump. That doesnt mean Trump will be charged, but todays news should greatly concern Trumps team.
We now know Smith is pushing hard to investigate January 6th, and it looks like hes developing a case against Trump.

Pence has always been the essential witness when it comes to establishing whether or not Trump's involvement in the pressure campaign for the VP to interfere with the election result was criminal. Smith has to get his testimony before he can make a prosecutive decision.
Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance
But, pence does feel like a late in the game witness. Someone you want to talk to you after you have all of the other testimony, and when you're just about ready to make a decision.

BREAKING -- Mike Pence subpoenaed by DOJ Special Counsel Jack Smith.
Major step. The investigation of Trump's January 6 Conspiracy is now entering its final phase.
Tristan Snell @TristanSnell 22h
If Smith and DOJ then have testimony and documents from Mark Meadows and Mike Pence -- two of the people who were the closest to the center of the events from November 3, 2020 to January 6, 2021 -- then the stage is set for subpoenaning Trump, or just indicting him.
