Each Party \ each member of Congress gets their fair say, no one's voice is silenced. This ensures the Republic survives. If say, most of us wanted the Whigs to impose rule, then next election the Tories could just do the same- and further, imprison the rivals and us supporters.):
1. The President of the Senate (VP Pence) will open each State's delegate votes envelope and add it to the Certified count, in alphabetical order.
(Fyi 1 or 2 States will have a split vote. This is habitual \ constitutional \ mathematically irrelevant here.)
2. It's possible that for any\each\every State an objection to certifying their count is lodged.
It REQUIRES at least 1 member of EACH- Senate & House, and triggers Congress to retire for private debate @ minimum 2 hours. This is explicit in the Constitution \ has always been followed, including very recently \ cannot be circumvented by any procedural rules change- even if unanimously- barring an Amendment to the Constitution.
IN PRACTICAL TERMS each objection will last a lot longer than 2 hours, especially because:
3. A bipartisan Fraud Committee for this year's Election Certification is being hastily formed.
4. After the private debating Congress will reconvene and vote in single person format to accept or deny the lodged objection. This voting format has been a bone of contention. IMO the House vote should be in 1 vote per State format (as it will surely be IF they end up deciding the President, btw the Senate would then vote in identical fashion for the VP), as stated in the Constitution. It also makes no sense for several hundred Representatives to obliterate 100 Senators, but i digress- there are more Democrats (allied with significant numbers of Rinos). Theoretically could be appealed to the Supremes, highly unlikely though.
5. Seven States have sent rival delegations. Pence is going to strictly follow the US Constitution here, which states that only the State Assemblies have the full plenary power to dictate all Federal Election laws and procedures (governors and state officials have no power to overrule them whatsoever). Accordingly, he will send a formal request to each Legislature asking that they respond as to which delegation is to be counted. And btw, they are allowed to respond as they wish- including tossing both and selecting another one, or to decide not to certify any (thus invalidating their vote completely for the particular election), or even to do over the Election.
But it must be a formal answer, so voted in Session. Those that aren't would need to to convene a special session.
Fyi in some States only the Governor can call a special session (and ALL, on both sides of the aisle have refused to so far), but constitutionally this would be an exception where Legislatures can bypass the Governor. Whether this is actual done remains to be seen though. (Look for Assemblies to rectify this in the future, extending sessions to include December and January.)
For what it's worth, 5 of the 7 states in question have Republican Governors and Assembly majorities.
6. Pence will give each Legislature a deadline date, and refuse to certify any State's votes that remain contested without a formal reply. He will NOT individually select between one or the other.
7. The Constitution, IMO, dictates that the overall vote leader becomes President WITHOUT needing to reach overall majority (270. Without the 7 contested States Trump leads 232-220)).
BUT, the Dems being in majority, i doubt this occurs. So then,
8. The Presidential Election goes to the House (only)- 1 vote per State Delegation. Presently running about 30-20 Republican.
And the Senate would select the VP in identical 1 vote per State fashion.
9. Look for the entire Certification process to drag on another coupla weeks for sure, with a small possibility of right up until or even past Inauguration Day. Certainly NOT a 1\2 day deal.
9. I don't see any chance for Biden. Would require too many unconstitutional missteps by both houses of Congress in unison and then the Supreme Court approving it on appeal.
Other points to ponder:
Under the Tells category-
A. White House has issued order cancelling Staff moving out procedures that had been scheduled to commence January 4.
B. Kamala hasn't given up her Congressional seat yet.
C. Biden Defense Briefings have been and remain paused.
Look for immediate, major Election overhaul. Many more States, both Red and Blue suffered Biden ballot stuffing and flipping from Trump... As well as Congressional and other races downballot. There's lots of disclosed fraud evidence also for among others Texas, California, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Virginia, North Carolina, Iowa, Illinois, Kentucky, Alabama...
Both parties cheated, but overwhelmingly about 8\9 to 1\2 Dems.
Trump NOT interested re invoking Sedition \ Martial. Despite of enemy countries election interference. It would open to the door for future nefarious administrations.
(IMO he will likely be forced to because of widespread disturbances- for one, the people congregating in DC will likely come under massive attack.)
He's more interested in presenting all evidence to Congress and the American people.
I do hope we get Treason trials as needed, otherwise this will never stop. It's just too obvious and out of control. Nationally, over 30 million more voted that were never Registered or were verifiably dead \ minors \ incarcerated \ non-Citizen \ do not exist \ voted multiple times \ etc.
On CNN and others with access to live Election data, you could actually see Trump vote counts diminishing on successive flashes and Biden counts with single flash jumps to leapfrog to the lead- like the World Series of Poker.
It's extremely embarrassing.
