The Black Congressional Caucus did try to raise the issue, but under the standing rules applicable to the counting of Electors they needed a Representative and a Senator to jointly raise the point in order for it to be considered and at the time, there were no Black Senators and no other Democrats joined them in their quixotic effort save one other Representative, Peter Deutsch. Even if they'd forced consideration, the rules required both the House and the Senate to find the list of Electors flawed and the House was under GOP control, so there was no chance of success.
