US elections: Georgia returns to the announcement of Joe Biden’s presidential victory – International

The US state of Georgia returned to the press release regarding official certification of Joe Biden’s victory in the presidential election, Reuters reports.

The local press detected by Reuters announced Friday that the result of the recount of the votes has been officially confirmed, and therefore the 16 voters of the National Electoral College of the United States belong to the Democratic candidate.

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger later said the findings would be certified later in the day. The current president of the United States, Republican Donald Trump, continues to fail to recognize the result of the November 3 election.

According to the statement withdrawn by Raffensperger, the manual recount of votes in this state did not change the result of the first count and which Biden won, according to Agerpres.

The initial tally indicated a Democratic advantage of around 14,000 votes over his rival Donald Trump, a gap so narrow that there was a manual counting of the ballots.

The gap has narrowed slightly, with Biden now just over 12,200 votes more than Trump. The difference between the two candidates is still very small and President Donald Trump, who is contesting his defeat in the elections, can still ask for a new count, the office of the Secretary of State of Georgia, in charge of organizing the elections.
