I am looking for a site that keeps the tally of states that have certified the 2020 Election. Most sites have days-old data and articles to comb through but not a central place where the results are kept current - or as current as the news cycle will allow.
Anyone know of a site?
Thanks!!

Which States Have Certified Presidential Vote Totals
By Maggie Astor, Keith Collins and Amy Schoenfeld Walker Updated Nov. 24, 2020
106 of 306 electoral votes certified so far for Joseph R. Biden Jr.
122 of 232 electoral votes certified so far for Donald J. Trump
The results reported right after the presidential election are reliable, but they are not official. The official results will arrive in the coming weeks, after a process called certification.
The details vary from state to state, but the point is for officials sometimes called canvassers to examine the raw numbers reported by precincts and verify that they are accurate and complete.
This starts at the county or municipal level, and then a state official or board must review the local certifications and certify the statewide totals. In presidential races, if states certify their results by the so-called safe harbor deadline this year, its Dec. 8 those results are largely insulated from further challenges.
States set their own deadlines, but they dont always meet them: In Mississippi, for example, some counties certified their results late because staff members were out sick with the coronavirus. A missed state deadline isnt necessarily a big deal. Its the Dec. 8 deadline that really matters.
In some states, every county may have certified its results already, but it wont be listed as complete until the state canvassers sign off.
Below is a list of certification deadlines for the key battleground states that President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. won. The Trump campaigns strategy has been to try so far unsuccessfully to delay the certification processes in these states.
State Certification deadline Status Winner
Georgia Nov. 20 Certified Biden
Michigan Nov. 23 Certified Biden
Pennsylvania Nov. 23 Certified Biden
Nevada Nov. 24 Certified Biden
Arizona Nov. 30 Not yet certified Biden
Wisconsin Dec. 1 Not yet certified Biden
