Another question.....

True Story: An election occurred [sorry, I don't remember the names and it shouldn't matter anyway] where a member of Congress was elected, sic, certified by the State as having received a plurality of the vote. The State Certification was premature, when all the ballots were counted the other candidate had the plurality, but the State did not certify the candidate that had the plurality when all the ballots were certified. The Congress subsequently swore in the candidate that had received the plurality. Was this, in your opinion, the correct action or should Congress have ignored the actual vote and accepted the State Certification that was incorrectly assigned?

Best Regards,
jttmab
