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.
