Don't be surprised if kamala finds some urgent matter sending her out of town and pushing the actual certification to the next official. Would that be the Speaker of the House..?

I highly doubt that will happen, but it would still be a thousand times better than what happened last time.

I believe Hubert Humphrey was on another assignment in 1969 when the Nixon victory was certified. Simply my recollection.

Yes, it would be vastly better than the last time.

Vice Presidents rarely win the Presidency running as an incumbent Vice President, and then they have to announce the results of the election in the new Congress.

GHW Bush was the first to win the Presidency as an incumbent VP since the mid 19th century.

I believe there is an outpost somewhere near the Northern Artic Ocean I could see Harris being appointed to.
