For my first OP on DU, it is my pleasure to announce it is official per CNN-Biden/Harris 270 EVs+

It is done. Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. is now formally President-Elect of the United States of America and Kamala Devi Harris is now officially the first ever female Indo-African American Vice-President Elect of the United States of America! California just put him over the top live on CNN and he now has 302 Electoral College votes officially. Hawaii, which will come later, brings him up to 306. We now have officially defeated the mob boss by the exact same margin he "won" by in 2016, barring a faithless elector in Hawaii!!

Joy to the world!!

Edit: CNN Breaking News Banner with Wolf Blitzer on now "Electoral College Elects Joe Biden President"!

A NEW ERA has begun for us all!

I can't wait to experience and enjoy this, hopefully longest ever tenure, of Democrats in the WH, with you all. May the Nazi Party of America, formerly known as the GOP, not regain power for eons!

There's only one person who'll never consider the election official, and we all know who that "person" is.

Congratulations on your first OP, and don't allow it to be your last. Keep posting, we'll read them. There actually are people who read mine, for chrisakes! Not many, but a few.

All that means is that the governors will be asked to confirm their state's electoral votes. It's one last gasp of hope for Trumpublicans to end democracy in favor of an authoritarian dictatorship they so desperately desire.
