Three states of Trump’s legal attempt to flip the vote count will certify results on Monday.
President Donald Trump is still refusing to concede the United States presidential election, despite a resounding victory by President-elect Joe Biden.
It seems like you're referring to a different time period, possibly the 2020 US presidential transition. As of Monday, Donald Trump hadn't allowed government agencies to cooperate with Joe Biden's transition team, despite Biden's projected win with 306 Electoral votes. Biden's team continued planning for the January 20 inauguration and was set to announce cabinet members.
Here's the list of recommended stories:
1. *Donald Trump’s revenge tour? US can only watch and wait*: MSNBC host Rachel Maddow warns of Trump's alleged "retribution tour" targeting critics like James Comey and Letitia James, sparking concerns about politicization of the justice system ¹.
2. *Christie calls Trump’s legal team a ‘national embarrassment’*: Chris Christie slams Trump's legal team, indicating internal party criticism.
3. *‘Frankenstein’s monster’: Judge tosses Pennsylvania lawsuit*: A judge dismisses a Pennsylvania lawsuit, dealing a blow to Trump's post-election efforts.
4. *Biden team forges ahead with transition as Trump pushes recounts*: Biden's transition team proceeds despite Trump's recount efforts, highlighting the ongoing transition process.
Meanwhile, several key states that Trump has sought to contest are set to certify their official election results on Monday, the first big step in Biden’s victory being made official.
Under the idiosyncratic US national election system, the winner of the presidential election is reliably projected by media organisations in the days following the vote, but official tallies are not determined until weeks later.
At that point, state officials can certify those results, allowing a state to select their electors, who, with minor exceptions, pledge or are required by state law to vote for the candidate who received the most votes in their state. Those electors vote on December 14. The results are approved by Congress on January 6.
In Michigan, all eyes will be on the two Republican members of the four-member Board of State Canvassers on Monday, as they meet to vote on the certification of Biden’s about 154,000-vote victory over Trump and ensure the state’s 16 Electoral votes.
One Republican member, Norman Shinkle, told The Washington Post last week he was moving towards seeking a delay of the certification, citing Trump’s unfounded allegations of voting irregularities.
On Friday, Trump also hosted a group of Republican state legislators from Michigan at the White House, as he and his allies have increasingly pushed a dubious and largely disputed legal theory that argues Republican state legislatures can appoint their own pro-Trump electors, regardless of state results.
While the outcome of the meeting has not been revealed, state Republicans leaders maintained afterwards they would “follow the normal process” and honour their state’s results
