[no_hypocrisy]

If Democrats win a majority of congressional elections, but Mike Johnson won't swear them in, then can voters from those districts go to court under the aegis of Writ of Mandamus to force him to swear them in? (Of course, he'd delay it; he'd lose his Speakership.)

A (writ of) mandamus is an order from a court to an inferior government official ordering the government official to properly fulfill their official duties or correct an abuse of discretion.
