The US Electoral College continues the formal voting process to certify that Democratic candidate Joe Biden will win the United States’ next president. In contrast, outgoing President Donald Trump continues to reject the election result even as he continues to lose the cases he filed in the courts.
Voting has been completed in several states, with delegates generally meeting in their capitals. Still, Biden’s victory will likely be confirmed only after California, on the West Coast, cast their ballots this afternoon UST.
Biden will receive 306 votes, as all states ratified the results of the November 3 elections.
The electoral college system distributes the votes of the 538 delegates to each state based on population size. The winner of the presidential elections is the candidate who receives the votes of more than 270 delegates.
