Its now confirmed.

Thirty six days from now Joe Biden will take oath as the next President of the United States of America.

The Electoral College in its voting held on Monday i.e. on 14-December-2020 confirmed 306 votes to Mr. Biden against 252 votes to the sitting President Mr.Donal Trump.

This is the exact “landslide” margin by which Donald Trump had won four year back and continuously claimed the result so when he became the US president in a dramatic way.

For students of political science, a new American president is elected every four years once he gets 270 votes of Electors of the Electoral College. America follows the principle of “winner takes it all” concept to elect their national leader.

On January the 6th next month the current Vice-President Mike Pence while presiding over a special session of the America’s House of Senate will officially announce Joe Biden as the 46th President of the US.

Normally confirmation of result by the US Electoral College of a election day victory is a ‘non-event’. But this time around world interests was focused on routine exercise of the Electors as unprecedented scenes followed for days & weeks after a sitting US President in form of Mr Donald Trump refused to accept defeat.

After loosing 48 court cases across the the American states and at least three rejections of appeals of the Republicans by the US Supreme Court, no one could find any evidence. till date, of an alleged electoral fraud.

More than 150 million US citizens voted on the election day last month with a record 80 million votes casts in favour of Joe Biden and 74 million going to Mr. Trump.
