As we reported, yesterday<\/a>, Mike Pence had a chance to reject all the unlawful Electoral College Certificates:<\/p>\n

\u201cSources in the Trump administration confirmed to National File that President Donald Trump\u2019s most vocal advocates within the White House have determined that both U.S. Code and the Constitution contain language that requires Vice President Mike Pence to reject unlawful Electoral College certificates, but Pence must act by no later than Wednesday, December 23.<\/em><\/p>\n

The drafters of this White House memo believe that the federal check to the states\u2019 elections resides with Vice President Mike Pence in his role as President of the Senate. Additionally, Pence has the sole power to determine whether to reject impermissible states of electors. However, Pence is legally required to do this on the fourth Wednesday in December, which this year falls on December 23.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The President himself even retweeted a post about this #PenceCard, leading many to believe that it was a real option that had been discussed and might happen.<\/p>\n
