Constitution: If Electoral College Doesn’t Produce A Result, Congress Can
Transcript:
Bryan Fischer here with today’s Life and Liberty Minute. This year’s presidential election is already one of the most bitterly contested in US history. What if the Electoral College does not produce a clear result? The Constitution has the answer. If no candidate has an Electoral College majority, the House of Representatives shall immediately - note that word - choose the President through a vote in which the delegation of each state gets one vote. So fifty votes will be cast to determine the next president. Now here’s the kicker: even though the House today has a majority of Democrats, that’s irrelevant, because the Republicans control more state delegations than Democrats do, by a margin of twenty-six to twenty-three, with Michigan’s delegation being split. If Republicans remain faithful, say hello to our next president, Donald J Trump.
