Democrat Joe Biden’s victory in the key state of Michigan was officially validated on Monday, a further setback for Donald Trump, who still refuses to accept defeat in the November 3 presidential election, reports AgP, taken over by Agerpres.
A committee has validated the results in this state that grants 16 representatives in the College of Voters: Joe Biden has an advance of more than 155,000 votes of the 5.5 million cast.
Validating election results is usually a routine exercise, but President Trump and his allies have been lobbying Republicans in Michigan in recent days in hopes of delaying the process.
“Democracy has won,” Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson wrote on Twitter. The commission’s vote “confirms a truth: the elections were fair and safe and the result reflects the will of the voters,” the Democrat added.
Another key state, Pennsylvania, where Joe Biden has an advance of more than 80,000 votes, was also to validate the results on Monday.
20 days have passed since the elections and 2 weeks since the media projections gave the winner Joe Biden, the Democratic candidate. Even so, Donald Trump continues to avoid journalists’ questions in unprecedented silence as Joe Biden prepares toand take over the new role in the White House.
