Neither the 12th Amendment nor the Electoral Control Act give the vice president any role beyond those two steps. https://www.npr.org/sections/congress-electoral-college-tally-live-updates/2021/01/06/953995808/pence-says-he-doesnt-have-power-to-reject-electoral-votes https://constitutioncenter.org/the-constitution/amendments/amendment-xii https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/02/01/fact-check-trump-falsely-claims-pence-had-right-overturn-election/9284564002/ https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/jan/05/donald-trump/does-mike-pence-have-power-reject-electoral-colleg/ https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1252869
