The states are required by the Constitution to cast their electoral votes by Dec 14th. If there are contested states and neither candidate has 270 electoral votes, the Constitution calls for a vote of the House legislature, one vote per state delegation, on January 5th when they reconvene. If all the Republican states vote for Trump, he wins. If 4 defect, Biden wins. (26 republican legislatures vs 22 Democrat)

Trump is also well aware of this too as he mentioned it in a previous rally.

The media needs to be gagged whenever it comes to reporting election results or polls until its over. They've manipulated this before and will do it again in the future.

Remember though, the media doesn't certify electoral votes.

That problem is the media purposely, maliciously, prematurely, and continually calls elections for Democrats time and time again, which incites violence because the people they’re gaslighting will believe they’ve won even though they’re ignorant of our election process.

Thought my edit to add corporate media went through - guess not. They don't but shouldn't be able to interfere (looking at Faux News) like they've done this time.
