Judge Napolitano explains if Pelosi could become acting president if election results are delayed past Jan. 20


Could House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., become president if there is no election result by January? Fox News senior judicial analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano told "Varney & Co." on Thursday whether Pelosi would automatically assume the role of acting president if the 2020 election is delayed. PELOSI SAYS BIDEN SHOULDN'T DEBATE TRUMP: 'I WOULDN'T LEGITIMIZE A CONVERSATION WITH HIM'"It might be right," Napolitano told host Stuart Varney. "President Trump's term ends at precisely noon on Jan. 20, 2021. "Stated simply," he added, "whoever is the sitting speaker of the United States, would become president at noon on Jan. 20, 2021, if the Electoral College has failed to elect someone."
