The results of the presidential election were verified by California state authorities on Friday. At the same time, the state has designated 55 polling stations to vote for Democratic candidate Joe Biden. By certifying the results from the state of California, Biden officially won the electoral college necessary for victory.
The New York Daily News reports that the number of polling stations pledging to vote for Biden rose to 269 after California Secretary of State Alex Padilla officially approved the results of the state elections. 270 electoral votes are needed to win the elections.
These steps in the US presidential election are nothing more than a formality. But this time, President Donald Trump’s various secret moves regarding the elections have added a new dimension. However, he denies the victory of his rival Joe Biden and continues to fight legally to change the outcome of the elections.
Edward B. Foley, a law professor at Ohio State University, said that while Biden’s election victory had become apparent in recent weeks, the official announcement of victory from more than 260 polling stations appeared to be the first step toward the White House. “It is a legal milestone and the first milestone this time,” he said. What was there before has formed the basis of the current position.
