Pence: Rejecting Electoral Votes Is Not ‘Correct'

In a letter to Congress on Wednesday, Vice President Mike Pence said he does not believe he has the power to count or reject electoral votes. “Some believe that as Vice President, I should be able to accept or reject electoral votes unilaterally,” Pence said. “Others believe that electoral votes should never be challenged in a Joint Session of Congress… I believe neither view is correct.”
