Although CNN and other major American outlets published polls, it was announced that Biden defeated incumbent President Trump with 279: 214 electoral votes and crossed the threshold of being elected to become the 46th President of the United States.
However, data from the polling and political news aggregation network “Real Clear Politics” (RCP) shows that although Biden leads Trump with 259: 214 electoral votes, he has not yet crossed the electoral threshold. Not only did Trump insist that he won the election, but the Republican leader also supported him in calling for an investigation and recount. Faced with questions, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said with a smile that power will be transferred smoothly, but it was handed over to the second Trump administration.
According to CNN News on the 10th, Pompeo still refuses to acknowledge Biden’s choice, and Trump has also started a series of legal proceedings. The report noted that while it is customary to admit defeat in elections, the law does not require it. “There will be a smooth transition to the second Trump administration. Yes, the whole world is watching what happened,” Pompeo said. “We have counted all the votes, and when the process is complete, we will elect the voters. There is a process and the constitution clearly stipulates it.”
However, Pompeo did not indicate whether he believed there was electoral fraud. He also stressed that everyone in the world understands that it takes time, and in 2000, it took more than 37 days for the regime to make a successful transition.
On the other hand, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell and other high-ranking members of the Senate Republican Party continue to suggest that the outcome of the presidential election is uncertain and that Trump may still win. McConnell said that before voters vote, dubious candidates have the right to recount their votes under the decision of a court with appropriate jurisdiction. This is unusual, but not worrisome. And Republican Senator Roy Blunt echoed this statement, even saying, “The president didn’t lose much; to be honest, he may not lose anything.”
As of Tuesday morning, only four Republican senators, including Mitt Romney, congratulated Democratic presidential candidate Biden on his victory.
