I think the electoral votes are presented to the President of the Senate one state at a time. The state will deliver their electors according to each state's rules, not the Federal government's. Ohio could choose NOT to deliver their votes on Jan 6. They could divide them up. They could do whatever they want.

One Sen and one Rep could contest the ballots submitted by any state. The House and Senate would vote to sustain or reject the challenge. It would probably be an up-down vote. They could vote not to accept Ohio's ballots which would lead to no candidate having the required majority of electoral votes.

The presidential election would then be thrown to the House of Representatives. The delegation from each state would then cast one vote for one of three highest candidates for President. The victor requires a clear majority to win. They would then select the Vice President in the same manner.

Republicans control the House so the outcome would be no surprise. No Constitutional crisis. Just America working the way it was designed.

Fraud discovered in one county in one state will not engender a constitutional crisis either. It must be found to be widespread or a clear smoking gun in the Oval Office. The battle will then be equal part constitutional and equal part public opinion...
