If mail in ballot issues aren't resolved by January 20th, Trump and Pence are in limbo. Third in succession is Pelosi. She would also likely be in limbo, too. She is also.up for reelection.
Not exactly true. The new House would pick the President, with 1 vote per state (not 1 vote per Representative). The new Senate would pick the Vice President.
As long as Republicans keep the majority in the Senate and a majority of states (not seats) in the House, Trump/Pence win. Republicans don't control the House, but they do control a majority of states.
If the Republicans take the House, the new Speaker will be a Republican, not Pelosi.
Nope. Chuck Grassley would become president unless Senate Democrats who would have a majority of the remaining Senators still part of an active Congress at that point replaced him (they would).
Why do people believe Pelosi takes over

That’s not how it works. Chuck Grassley would become president.
So Jeb can still win?
