Could be interpreted as him saying he cant make the call, there are two sets, so he is sending it back to the States.

You're not reading the letter at all. He is being very clear that he's not interfering at all with the electors. Only the House/Senate have that power, and there won't be a majority to successfully object.

He did say he'll allow objections.

But he should be sending this back to the State Legislatures!!!

This just says that he will follow the Constitution and the law and hear objections. I'm not reading anywhere that he won't overturn anything.

Correct. And he was going to kick it back to the states after the evidence was presented. Wasn't that the plan? And it looked to me like that was what he was doing.

Borea [S] 1 point ago +1 / -0

Nope. You're not reading the letter correctly. House/Senate do not have majority to successfully object, and as he says in the letter, he doesn't have the power to choose electors or send back to the states by his own doing.

Hell, I'll let Trump tell you himself:

What Pence is saying is that he won’t unilaterally toss the electors, but will require objections from the house and senate before tossing them.
