Article II, Section I of the U.S. Constitution states that a president is elected to serve a four-year term. The current presidential term officially ends on January 20, 2021.

Even if the election results are not finalized by that date, President Donald Trump (R) will no longer be president, and Vice President Mike Pence (R)

What happens next would depend on several factors.

In one scenario, the results of the presidential election would be unknown because no candidate received a majority of the vote in the Electoral College. In that case, the Twelfth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution holds that the House of Representatives elects the president, and the Senate elects the vice president.[1] If the House fails to elect a president by March 4, 2021, the Twelfth Amendment requires that the vice president assume the office of president.

(2]In a second scenario, the question of whether a candidate has won the Electoral College is taken up in the courts, and the issue remains unresolved past January 20.

The presidential line of succession, established in 3 U.S. Code § 19, part of the Presidential Succession Act of 1947, lays out who would assume the role should there be a vacancy in the offices of both president and vice president.

[3][4] The outcome depends on whether a new Congress has been sworn in by January 20.If a new Congress has been sworn in, the next in line would be the speaker of the House of Representatives, currently Nancy Pelosi (D).

If re-elected to both her seat and the speakership, she would serve as acting president until the election is decided. The Twentieth Amendment to the Constitution requires that each new Congress convene on January 3, unless the previous Congress passed a law that set a different date. (read more)

Me.
I’ll be the President.

Bloggers will get beaten up, tossed onto a prison barge and shipped to GITMO.

And will get beaten more during the trip and also every day after they arrive.

Then we’ll start rounding up people who post vanities...

I don’t want the job, no sane person does.

So much for 1st amendment rights

That has been superseded by Section 3 of the 20th Amendment. If a president has not been elected by January 20, then the Vice President elect acts as president until a president has been elected.

So much for arrogant jackwads trying to scam money by pretending they know better that you.

Who Is The President's 2021

Which is why Congress passed the Electoral Count Act—including provisions to ensure the process can’t last more than a few days at the maximum—to make sure that never happens again.

What if Roberts swears in Biden and Thomas swears in Trump?

Never Fear. The result will be known by end of day, January 6, 2021.

However, if it turns into a total Presidential election certification catastrophe, I, President-Elect gw-ington, and my trustworthy (but rather temperamental) Vice-President Elect, Loch Ness Monster, are available to at least temporarily run the government until President Trump is certified by Congress and VP Pence as the official Presidential victor.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
