they're going to do the Arizona debate because they already started it, then they're going to vote on that, then finish up the rest of the count without objections over the other states. At least that's my understanding.

I don't think they're actually "debating" Arizona now btw, they're using this time to make speeches about what happened today.

Rand Paul said he thinks that the rest of the objections will be dropped in the Senate.

Hope so.

I think they backed off everything else.

They saw what the sick charade has caused.

I suspect they will resume and count all the way without further objections.

that they would "take 1 vote" then finish. Presumably that means they'll finish the AZ objection, vote on it, then there will be no objections to any other electors.
