How Congress Seats Election Winners, Explained

Original: How does Congress seat election winners?

Under US law, each chamber of Congress judges the elections and qualifications of its own members, receiving certificates of election and resolving disputes or challenges before newly elected representatives and senators can take their seats. The explainer comes amid ongoing attention to election certification procedures.

Why now: Renewed scrutiny of election certification and congressional procedures in US politics.
