The authority does exist. That I am certain of.

The question is will Pence do it? That I am not certain of.
What absolute nonsense. If it exists, why on earth did Al Gore not use it to crown himself president in 2000? Why has any time when the incumbent party lost not thrown out the results based on claims about fraud?
It doesn't exist, and you're being set up to hate Pence, who is an honorable man, a good man, for not doing what he has no authority to do.
If there's one thing to learn from the history of the US Constitution, it's that the text and rules matter significantly less than the will of politicians and the willingness of people to accept their decisions. Gore was a weak man and the public had accepted the idea that Bush was the president-elect. A substantial portion of the public has not accepted Harris as president-elect, so it's a question of whether Pence is a strong-willed man.
Because in 2000 it was establishment Democrat Al Gore vs. establishment Republican George Bush.
The establishment would never burn itself down because the wrong establishment guy won.
