Is Biden @ at at least 270 and Trump has zero chance of getting to 270 with today's certifications?
Please tell me it is a done deal.

Technically, the electoral college has to vote, then Congress has to certify that election, which won't happen until early Jan

(14 posts)Nope. New York Times reports certified electoral votes as of today as Trump 80 Biden 53. Most states certify this week and next.

(66 posts)Given the certification schedule, 270 certified is a ways away, but I suppose you could say that we further confirmed what was known: Trump's not getting his rebellion because when push comes to shove the people in charge aren't actually prepared to pull that trigger en masse. Even the idiot conspiracy theorist in Michigan didn't dare vote no, he abstained.
The law is clear and Biden won.
