But on Dec. 14, Republican electors in these six states and New Mexico cast alternative slates of Electoral College votes for Trump, setting up a \u201cdueling electors\u201d scenario not seen in U.S. elections for decades.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Ellis suggested on the Just the News program \u201cThe Water Cooler with David Brody\u201d that Pence could ask the respective state legislatures of the six contested states which of the two slates of electors was in accordance with state law.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201c[Pence] can ask that question to the states and say, \u2018Well, legislators, you know, I have an oath to the Constitution to uphold the Constitution as written in Article II Section 1.2, which says the state legislatures direct the manner in which electoral delegates are selected.
