Pence could have chosen the 'conflicting' elector slates, but didn't. Before the vote he put out a memorandum regarding having that sort of power and not liking to have that power.

Pence chose the 'certified' (fraudulent) slates, the objections started at Arizona, Its about at this time protestors started to charge the Capitol building and there was an alarm going off telling the members to evacuate, but im guessing all this stuff isn't going to change senators/house members mind.
