Sounds like I'm misinformed on how the process works. I heard more than once that it only takes one senator and one representative to make this a contested election. Is this is wrong?
I believe that first, one Senator and one Representative must vote to contest it. But, to actually throw out the electoral votes, a majority in both Houses must then vote to do so.
No, but we do need a majority in both houses to actually effectuate it

That's what I thought as well. Does anyone have correct info?

It's complicated by design ;) Thank you
