Members of the United States Electoral College confirmed that Joe Biden had officially won the presidential election, in one of the last steps before taking office.

The Democratic Party candidate won the November elections by winning 306 votes in the electoral college against his Republican rival, Donald Trump, who obtained 232 votes.

Under the current electoral system in the United States, citizens actually cast their votes to “electors” who formally vote for the candidates weeks after the election.

Despite this, Trump is not expected to accept the result.

Generally, people do not pay attention to the electoral college vote, but this year the process has become the center of attention due to the skepticism of the outgoing president about the results and his insistence on filing lawsuits that were all rejected in court. .
