If there is a dispute on a state's electors the House and Senate debate separately and then convene jointly to vote. They must agree to throw out the certified vote. Do we know if it's the full house in full Senate voting independently or if they vote by state delegation?

Do you have a source for Pence breaking the tie? I thought VP could only break ties in the Senate, and that to throw out a state's votes both the house and the Senate have to agree (and the full House votes). In this case, the Senate would vote to throw out the fraudulent votes and the House would vote to keep them, which means the votes are accepted. I can't find anything that explicitly lays out the process.

I cannot find the source now. I may have misread something or misremembered. Thank you for the correction.
