WASHINGTON – On Monday, the U.S. Congress formally licensed Republican President-elect Donald Trump’s victory within the November election towards Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris. This certification paves the way in which for Trump to be inaugurated on January 20.
The affirmation of the election outcomes from all 50 states and the District of Columbia befell throughout a succinct and formal joint session of the Home of Representatives and Senate. Vice President Kamala Harris, in her position as president of the Senate, presided over the occasion.
The ceremony this 12 months was markedly peaceable in comparison with the incident 4 years prior, when Trump supporters violently breached the Capitol in an try to stop the certification of Trump’s 2020 election loss to then-President Joe Biden.
Regardless of Trump’s repeated and unfounded assertions that his 2020 defeat was as a result of widespread electoral fraud, he secured a win over Harris on November 5. Following the certification, Trump took to Reality Social, his social media platform, to have fun the affirmation, stating, “Congress certifies our nice election victory as we speak – an enormous second in historical past. MAGA!”
The ultimate tally confirmed Trump’s win with 312 Electoral Faculty votes over Harris’s 226, aligning with the preliminary election outcomes.
