Pennsylvania Certifies Biden as Winner of Presidential Election

VOA News

   The governor of the U.S. state of Pennsylvania said Tuesday that Joe
   Biden has been certified as the winner of the presidential election in
   the state.

   Governor Tom Wolf tweeted that the Pennsylvania Department of State had
   certified the election results for president and vice president. "As
   required by federal law, I've signed the Certificate of Ascertainment
   for the slate of electors for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris."

   Biden's win denies Pennsylvania's 20 electoral votes to President
   Donald Trump, who has made the state the centerpiece of his
   unsuccessful legal campaign to overturn the November 3 election
   results.

   The certified results say Biden won 3.46 million votes in the state,
   while Trump captured 3.38 million and Libertarian Jo Jorgensen 79,000.

   Trump won Pennsylvania in 2016 by about 44,000 votes over Hillary
   Clinton.
