2/2 ... to verify the alternate set, but he can. If he doesn't, he can send the decision to Congress where 1 State = 1 Vote (Trump win). Senate decides the VP.
Per @Any_Volunteers: R electors casting votes also ensures that @realDonaldTrump’s pending legal challenges cannot be dismissed as moot. This was a critical procedural (elector challenge path) and legal (court path) step that had to occur. And these individual electors are courageous for doing so.
Also @Any_Volunteers: EC electors vote today, as per Fed Law. Trump sends R slate to vote in States in dispute. One slate is certified at present, Ds. Trump working over next weeks to have SLs/Courts de-certify Ds and retro-certify R slates, so Rs electors can be counted by Congress on 1/6.
"Again - I fought hard for President Trump. Nobody wanted him to win more than me. I think he's done an incredible job. But I love our republic, too. I can't fathom risking our norms, traditions and institutions to pass a resolution retroactively changing the electors for Trump, simply because some think there may have been enough widespread fraud to give him the win. That's unprecedented for good reason. And that's why there is not enough support in the House to cast a new slate of electors. I fear we'd lose our country forever. This truly would bring mutually assured destruction for every future election in regards to the Electoral College. And I cant stand for that. I won't. I know this isn't the outcome some want. It isn't what I want, either. but we have a republic if we can keep it. And I intend to."
