The Electoral College affirmed Joe Biden as the next president, a crucial milestone that President Trump has sought to upend with legal challenges.

Monday, December 14, 2020 5:33 PM EST

The president-elect passed the 270 threshold after California cast its 55 votes for Mr. Biden on Monday evening, capping a day marked by heightened security in battleground states and an unusual level of scrutiny for what is normally a formal, procedural affair.

The vote follows six weeks of unprecedented efforts by Mr. Trump to intervene in the electoral process and change the outcome of an election he lost by about seven million votes.
