What exactly is supposed to happen that will overturn the election? Why are some people saying pray for Trump to deliver them from evil?
Why is this happening? Who exactly is the "evil" in this scenario?

The evil is what some far right folks call the Democrats.
As far as what is still left that can be done, it's a constitutional thing. A joint session of congress and the Senate will meet to make the electoral vote tally official. Will debate any disputes, and decide on the official winner.
That's all normal procedure.
Here's where it gets murky. This year 5 or 6 states sent in competing elector votes. Which means those states have double votes they should have for counting.
So now the legislature will decide which electoral votes to count for those states. It can be any mix and match they choose to accept.
Odds are it'll still go to Biden but this exact thing has happened before and did change the outcome of that election. So that is why people are saying there's still a chance for Trump.

That's not correct. Each of the 6 states' official elections boards sent a SINGLE tally. Some idiots in each of these states sent their own imaginary results.

@Northwest Exactly. The states have already voted. The tally on January 6 is purely ceremonial and will not change the election results that are already in.
I don't know why people continue to believe Trump will have a second term when the legitimate votes of the people are tallied on January 6.

@Northwest yea the difference was secretary of state sent in electors and legislatures sent in electors. But like I said that's for congress to sort out.

@Callmewhatyouwill Too bad it is all over. Trump lost. Bigly. And no amount of pouting, tweeting, lying, obstructing, or lying can make him anything other than the Biggest Loser.

Still incorrect. The Sec. of State is the only party authorized, on behalf of the state to send the certified votes. The states' legislatures did NOT send in electors. a handful of people, met in a room and decided they are electors is NOT the states' legislatures.
