After a historic day starring the assault on the Capitol, the United States Congress ratified this Thursday the election of Democrat Joe Biden as president in the elections held last November. A decision that comes after the suspension for several hours of the session by the assault of the legislative headquarters of thousands of supporters of the outgoing president, Donald Trump. US Vice President, Mike Pence, has confirmed that Biden “has received 306 electoral votes” , by Trump’s 232, a day after debunking the president’s assertions about his supposed power to overturn the election result.

Several senators from his party have backed down and decided to support the certification of the election results that lead to Joe Biden as the winner. Senator Lindsey Graham has not endorsed the objection to the results of the state of Arizona, as neither have Mitt Romney – applauded by the Democrats after defending the legality of Biden’s victory – nor Senator Kelly Loeffler, among others . «We will complete the process in the correct way.
