Once the electors vote, it's a done deal.
But...Can you imagine the blow-back on Biden?
That's what I assume.
Is there a mechanism for overthrowing the results of an election, even if illegitimate (again, I'm not saying it is. Just...spitballin')?

You would have to impeach potus and vpotus
And somehow prevent Ms. Pelosi from becoming president when you do.
Maybe impeach Ms. Harris and replace her with Mr. Trump
Then impeach Mr. Biden -

If a VP vacancy occurs the president picks the replacement subject to senate approval

Impeachment will not work since the votes are not there.

In this case the votes would be cast by people who want to fix a terrible mistake.

Can you impeach based on the actions of others? I would not think so.

The House can impeach for whatever reason they perceive to be a "High Crime or Misdemeanor."
