This isn't directly related to what we're discussing, but it's relevant to the discussion we're attached to.

"Since 1887, 3 U.S.C. 15 sets the method for objections to electoral votes. During the Joint Session, Members of Congress may object to individual electoral votes or to state returns as a whole. An objection must be declared in writing and signed by at least one Representative and one Senator. In the case of an objection, the Joint Session recesses and each chamber considers the objection separately in a session which cannot last more than two hours with each Member speaking for no more than five minutes. After each house votes on whether or not to accept the objection, the Joint Session reconvenes and both chambers disclose their decisions. If they agree to the objection, the votes in question are not counted. If either chamber does not agree with the objection, the votes are counted."

The bolded part is where we'll separate the grandstanding from the people who actually support us. If we get to this point and our reps just bluster, but don't sign, we'll know.

Also, I'm seeing that holders of public office cannot be the representatives, they must have been selected prior to the election.
