I'm not certain where it is in law, or if it is even law, but the president and vice president are always in the same party. There's some tacit agreement about that.

So I will bet against this 100:1. I bet $10.

The electors have placed their votes. Unless there is a Trump Supreme Court victory, those votes stand. The electors voted once for president and once for vice-president. They were separate votes. If something happens to Biden between now and January 20th, Trump has the majority vote for president, Kamala for Vice-president.

Joe is old, we're in a pandemic that affects the elderly disproportionately, and supposedly he has other health issues.

I say the odds are that he will survive the month, but the possibility exists ...

I suppose Kamala Vice with Trump Pres is possible. The House would elect Trump. The Senate majority vote required for VP could be achieved by Kamala with less than ten Senator blow jobs, so that isn't a stretch. In fact, it would all be in an easy day's work for her.

Ha, Ha! I made a funny, stretch, Ha, Ha!

She'll be known as bukake VP.

Dude, they kept fucking RBG seemingly alive for fucking years, a month is nothing.

She appears to be on the prowl for her own power, rather than being a judicious and fair jurist:

[If this is true], what types of deceit would be foisted upon the citizens?

She needs to be sworn in wearing S&M getup, and should be addressed as Madam Cat'o'ninetails.

Would she brown my willie, or willie my brown? i'm confused.

How did Joe get a cold if he's wearing a mask and following every protocol?

It's clearly a Russian cold virus.

Did Kamila resign her senate seat yet?

Did Kamila resign her senate seat yet?

Is that required? Maybe she is planning to wear both hats.

Nope. Sucker's bet.

Here's why:

Donkeys in the House won't allow contesting the election on Jan 6th no matter what evidence there is. With electoral college votes already cast what path to overturning this shit is there?

And even then, won't go anywhere but a Biden victory.

Why? Because of PROCEDURE.

Unless the rules have changed, this is how I learned the process goes down.

1) Both chambers of Congress convene in a special Joint Session chaired by Pence.
2) Each set of EC ballots from each state get voted on for confirmation.
IF at least one member of the House and one of the Senate vote down the confirmation, then the Joint Session is temporarily suspended. Each chamber then convenes separately to vote on the issue.

IF BOTH chambers voted to dismiss the ballots, then those ballots get junked. The EC ballot count of the candidate who 'won' those ballots in the EC is then reduced.

If no candidate gets the 270 number after all this, Contingent Election Time.

If one chamber doesn't vote to trash the ballots, then Congress reconvenes in the Joint Session and the ballots are considered valid.

Appying those rules, the actual outcome is thus easy to predict:

Dem House of Reps won't vote to trash any of Biden's and GOP controlled Senate won't vote (or so I'd like to assume...many are fucking Trump-hating RINOs tho) to trash any of Trump's in the separate sessions. So, stalemate. Biden wins.

This happened in 2017's Joint Session. Some Dems in both chambers wanted to make a name for themselves with the Libtard ranks by voting against certain Pro-Trump EC ballots. They knew it would not go anywhere. Just for show. Expect Reps to do the same this time around. Joint Session Masturbation, I call it.

If Joe dies between now and then, then it's a Trump presidency with a Kamala vice-presidency. That's based on the electoral college votes.

Nope. If Biden dies, then 20 seconds after Kamala is sworn in as VP, she gets sworn in as P because there will be no Congress-confirmed P on January 21. Or rather there will be, but it will be for a dead man. And the VP steps in to be P when the office of the presidency is vacant.

Why? Because the EC votes will still stand UNLESS Democrats side with Reps to discard those ballots. There is no rule that EC ballots have to be for living or non-fictitious people. And why should the Dems side with the Reps when they can get Kamala in by just doing nothing but vote to rubberstamp the EC votes like Congress normally does?

Everybody: Stop thinking of the Electoral College as some sort of 'natural extension' to the voting process. It isn't. whatever relationship between the two is all artificial and what isn't thus artificially established ....doesn't apply.
