The pessimist in you is likely correct. Last time there were sane people at the state level who certified their election results and, in states were Biden won, correctly sent electors to Washington to elect Joe Biden. This time around there may be states controlled by election-denying Trump loyalists who will simply ignore the results and send electors to vote for Trump anyhow.
