There is actually quite a few ways that they can fuck with the vote. First, there is going to be a debate for 12 hours, 2 for every state being disputed.
What's not clear is how that is done. Obviously you can't give 5 minutes to every Senator or House representative, so who gets to speak?
Can they use charts and graphs?
Can they yield their time to others?
What evidence are they allowed to introduce?
All of these details are not in the constitution and all are up for interpretation and fuckery by the leaders of both houses. So expect some very restrictive rules because McConnell is a traitor and now pretty much everyone knows it.
January 6th (3 USC Section 15) is an arbitrary date to COUNT the votes.
Congress can change that date, however impractical at this point unless a law exists under some condition that allows it to be changed under "emergency" declaration of some sort...using the Pandemic strategy playbook.
January 6, 2021: Joint Session of Congress to Count
Electoral Votes and Declare Election Results Meets
On January 6, or another date set by law, the Senate and
House of Representatives assemble at 1:00 p.m. in a joint
session at the Capitol, in the House chamber, to count the
electoral votes and declare the results(3 U.S.C. §15). The
Vice President presides as President of the Senate. The Vice
President opens the certificates and presents them to four
tellers, two from each chamber. The tellers read and make a
list of the returns. When the votes have been ascertained
and counted, the tellers transmit them to the Vice President.
If one of the tickets has received a majority of 270 or more
electoral votes, the Vice President announces the results,
which “shall be deemed a sufficient declaration of the
persons, if any, elected President and Vice President.”
Got it. Thank you. I figured as much, but I saw that and it pissed me off. I cant wait to get rid of all these DS cucks and RINOS.

Pence's power is plenary. They cant object.
