"Call pence"? Ok. Give me a min. Let me pull out my rolodex. Lol. Sorry, but they already pushed their gop electors. Idk what else you expect at this point. Its most likely going to congress now. Unless I am mistaken. Is there something I am missing? (Legitimate question btw. As far as I know they contested the electors and now we are waiting to see if it goes to congress)
Tell them to vote for the president on January 6th.
Here is an explanation of why you need to call them. They can object to electoral votes. He need at least one senator and one house member to formally object votes. Then the count will continue. Each state gets 1 vote. Republicans control 29 states, democrats control 19. We will win if republicans object to electoral votes and vote for the president. Mike Pence also gets to choose which votes he wants so call him too.

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.”
Joint Session Challenges to Electoral Vote Returns
While the tellers announce the results, Members may object to the returns from any individual state as they are announced.
Objections to individual state returns must be made in writing by at least one Member each of the Senate and House of Representatives.
If an objection meets these requirements, the joint session recesses and the two houses separate and debate the question in their respective chambers for a maximum of two hours.
The two houses then vote separately to accept or reject the objection. They then reassemble in joint session, and announce the results of their respective votes.
An objection to a state’s electoral vote must be approved by both houses in order for any contested votes to be excluded.

EVERYONE KEEP CALLING. They can decide the president on January 6th.
^^^ Legislators can still resolve this themselves. They have all the power when it comes to elections.
HodgeTwin? Is this Keith or Kevin?
One day, it will be Keith or Kevin.
What should we be saying at this time?
Why? The ruling class will not let this go. ALL politicians are corrupt to the BONE.
Even if they are corrupt, they sometimes do we what we want. Call them.
For what? Not to be a doomer. Just curious, what can legislature do now?
Republicans will vote for Trump on January 6th. Call them. Call Pence too.

So why on earth would you not call them?
Because I am asking what for? What can they even do at this point? Again, I am legitimately asking.
