Biden certified as winner of Georgia presidential
race
The Georgia
Secretary of State’s Office officially certified the election results,
affirming Biden’s victory in the traditionally Republican battleground after a
mandatory statewide audit.
The office
mistakenly sent an email earlier on Friday declaring the process complete, only
to immediately correct the statement to acknowledge that the process was
ongoing.
In a new
statement sent around 4pm EST, the office said the results had been certified
and directed the public to visit the secretary of state’s website to view the
tally, which shows that Biden won by 12,670 votes.
Because of
the narrow margin of victory, either candidate may request a full recount. Such
a request must be made within two business days.
Trump’s
campaign, seeking to overturn the results, has vowed to pursue all legal
options.
