US election 2020: Latest news on the Trump-Biden transition

CNN  

Election Day is over, but the legal mechanisms that lead from Election Day to Inauguration Day have just begun. Here’s a timeline of what happens before Inauguration Day and key dates to look out for: Nov. 4 – Nov. 23: Votes are counted Mail-in ballots had to be postmarked by Nov. 3 in every US state, but they can be received late and still counted in many states. Nov. 10 – Dec. 11: States certify election results Each state does it a little bit differently, but starting a week after Election Day, state governments began to certify their election results. Dec. 8: “Safe harbor” to determine election results and assign electors Under the Electoral Count Act, this is the date by which states are meant to have counted votes, settled disputes, and determined the winner of their electoral college votes. In a disputed election, if the House has not chosen a President but the Senate has chosen a vice president, the vice president-elect becomes acting president until the House makes a choice.
