川普是否能在明年1月6日的国会上推翻选举人团的总统选举结果？1877年的选举历史是否会重演？至少，法律框架是允许这种争议的。下面是 ballotpedia.org 网站上的描述：

Specifically, during the session one member of the U.S. House and one member of the U.S. Senate must submit a written objection after the body reads the vote count from a particular state or D.C.

Once a House member and Senator submit an objection, the two chambers of Congress separate to debate for two hours and to vote on whether to continue counting the votes in light of the objection. Both chambers must vote by a simple majority to concur with the objection for it to stand, otherwise the objection fails.

If both chambers of Congress affirm the objection and the objection results in no one candidate receiving the necessary 270-vote Electoral College majority, the 12th Amendment dictates a congressional process for selecting a president and vice president. The House of Representatives votes to elect the new president. As a bloc, members of the House cast one vote per state, choosing between the three candidates who received the most Electoral College votes. The Senate votes to elect the Vice President, casting one vote per senator.[1]

第一步，众院与参院各有至少一名议员对选举人团的结果提出反对。两院分别进行2小时协商。

第二步，两院就反对案投票表决。

第三步，如果反对案在两院的表决都获得通过，按照宪法第12条修正案的规定，众议院以州为单位，各州在三个获选票最多的议员中选出一个代表，然后以每州一票的方式表决选出总统，参议院以同样方式选出副总统。

今年的问题是，在两院中各找一人提出反对案是完全可行的。问题是第二步，因为众议院的大多数是由民主党组成。除非有民主党议员违背党的意愿对反对案投下赞成票，否则反对案就在众议院被否决了。

假如确有民主党的众议员以个人意愿投票赞成反对案，那么这场戏可以继续唱下去。

虽然民主党在众议院占据整体上的大多数席位，但以州为单位，共和党占优势的州数领先。因此川普可以在众议院投票中胜出。

假如川普真以这种方式得以连任，那将是一个历史上的先例。它的意义在于国会在某党占州数上领先的前提下，直接甩开总统选举人团来决定谁当总统。选举人团将形同虚设，而当选的总统也只对议会负责了。这是一个政治体制的变化，美国将由总统制的体制变成代议体制。
