I presume you mean "duly elected". He "won" the electoral college which is the only vote that matters. (Unfortunately).
Oh, please tell me that the twitter moron didn't tweet "duely"?

Frequently I'll use abbreviations or foreign words and it will auto-correct. Then I'll fix it and it will auto-correct again.
