Joe Biden and Kamala Harris was elected by electors from each state and the District of Columbia to be the president and vice president-elect of the United States. The election is officially over.
Surprise, surprise California's 55 electors placed Biden over the 270 majority votes mark earlier this afternoon. According to Citizen Free Press, Biden is at 302 electoral votes. Wasn't he projected to win 306 electoral votes, what happened with the other three?
With this said, CFP terms today's vote in each state as symbolic. In seven states GOP electors were able to cast their electoral votes for President Trump. Including in Michigan where at first Republican electors were blocked by state police from entering the state capitol when Democrat electors cast their ballots for Joe Biden.
And here's a surprising one, Trump wants to block New Mexico's electors over their usage of drop boxes for mail-in voting. Although unlike the other battleground states that Trump actually won in 2016 and was leading until the vote swung right back to Biden later, New Mexico was one of those states that Trump likely wasn't going to win.
Well, I would still say this is the beginning of the end for Donald Trump.
