When Kamala Harris wins in November, she'll be the one presiding over her own eletoral college certifiation.

Since she'll still be in capacity as President of the Senate.

The last time this happened was in January, 1989 when George H.W. Bush presided over his certification.

I expect quite a few Republicans will pitch a fit about it this time.

Trump could persuade her that the election was rigged and she shouldn't certify it?

Seems like a resolution to that tragic injustice.
