IIRC, in 2016, there was an issue of faithless electors, from Colorado, maybe, that was addressed during transition. No other sets of electors were sent to DC, as in 2021, therefore nothing for Brandon to do.
I agree with the other anons saying the good guys had Obama & Co. dead to rights and he couldn't make a move.
I think, since, this is related to Jan 6, that the Capitol FF was arranged to blow up the chance of Trump's electors being chosen. Some pubbies switched after the "break in". There may be an angle where this legislation will clean up some loose ends, evidence-wise, and/or it will prevent an eventual elector do-over if some states decertify the 2021 electors that picked Brandon.
I'm pretty sure Collin's win in ME was not a given going in. She won it in the home stretch. Challenger had been out-polling her. Case can be made that seat was stolen, and Collins may have gotten a margin call to walk point for Pelosi for this legislation. Bipartisan optics bullshit all over again. In actuality, Collins may run the risk of getting caught out if Trump perseveres. She's comped.
