The General Services Administration of the United States usually announces the beginning of the transfer of power in the country from the incumbent president to the new one when it is clear that the presidential candidate has received enough votes to win the election. Democrat Joe Biden’s team recalled that the US media has already announced their victory over Donald Trump, but the transfer of power has not yet been launched.
The transition team of US presidential candidate Joe Biden is considering legal action due to the delay by the Department of General Services to recognize his electoral victory. Reuters reports it with reference to Biden’s official representative.
Typically, the General Service Office announces the victory of one of the presidential candidates so that the transition of power can begin.
Biden noted that this has yet to happen, despite the fact that US television and media declared the Democratic candidate the winner after he received enough electoral votes to win.
Biden’s team believes the delay is unjustified, even if incumbent President Donald Trump refuses to admit defeat.
In the United States, on November 3, 2020, the main vote in the presidential elections took place. More than 10 candidates ran for the job, the main competitors were Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Biden. Turnout in these elections was a 120-year record – some 160 million Americans participated in them.
According to CNN, ABC News and Fox News, Biden received between 273 and 290 electoral votes, guaranteeing him a victory in the election. Trump, according to CNN, has the support of 213 voters, according to ABC News and Fox News – 214.
Biden, after the announcement of these results, announced his victory, and Trump – who will file lawsuits in court and “will not rest” until he achieves an “honest vote count”, believes that “these elections are still far from over.”
Trump claims that 71 million votes ensured his victory in the new elections. CNN’s calculations show that more than 74.5 million voters voted for its competitor.
