What if neither the president nor vice president is chosen by inauguration day? | pressku.com

The US predetermination rule says that nan Senate picks nan VP and nan House picks nan President.

If nary president is elected erstwhile nan word starts, nan recently elected VP would enactment arsenic President.

In specified case, what if Senate was besides tied 50-50 and fails to elite a caller VP?

I spot a related thread saying that it is unclear that nan sitting VP would beryllium capable to formed a necktie breaking vote.

Does this mean nan US would beryllium without a President (even an acting one) astatine nan commencement of nan caller term?
