    If it's a tie, the house of reps votes for the president and the senate votes for the VP. So we could get a Biden Pence admin lmao

      Dank as that would be Trump would still win the house vote

      During a contingent election, each House state delegation casts one en bloc vote to determine the president, rather than a vote for each representative.
