Biden fractures foot after fall, will likely be in walking boot 'for several weeks'

Pennsylvania announced this morning that the results of the presidential election in the state have been certified, giving Biden the state's 20 electoral votes.

All 67 of the state's counties submitted their results late last night, and after certification by state Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar, Gov. Tom Wolf signed the Certificate of Ascertainment for President-elect Biden and Vice President-elect Harris' electors.

The final vote totals were 50% for Biden and 48.8% for Trump.

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel confirmed Tuesday morning that her office is "actively investigating" threats made against members of the Wayne County Board of Canvassers, according to a statement from her office. 

The Criminal Investigations Division opened the investigation "shortly after" the Board of Canvassers meeting last Tuesday, the statement said.

The two Republican members of the board, Monica Palmer and William Hartmann, have both publicly said they have been threatened and harassed since they briefly failed to certify the election results and then later tried to rescind their confirmation votes, though the statement does not name them.

More than two weeks since Biden was projected as the president-elect and a day after the GSA made the transition official, Trump still refuses to concede. 

On Tuesday, Trump tweeted that the “GSA has been terrific” but “the GSA does not determine who the next President of the United States will be” after tweeting a  reference to a "big lawsuit" that has yet to be filed.  

It follows a separate tweet Monday evening that may be the closest to a concession so far, in which Trump thanked the GSA and its administrator Emily Murphy and said he is “recommending that Emily and her team do what needs to be done with regard to initial protocols, and have told my team to do the same.” Still, he added that his legal battle “continues” and has re-tweeted a litany of baseless claims alleging election fraud.

Notably, in a letter ascertaining Biden as the winner, Murphy cited "recent developments involving legal challenges and certifications of election results” as her reason for considering Biden the apparent winner.

Following her letter, White House Chief of staff Mark Meadows sent a memo to staff Monday evening saying that the White House “will comply with all actions needed to ensure the smooth transfer of power,” per officials who received it.

A day after the GSA recognized Joe Biden as the apparent president-elect after a weeks-long delay -- putting in motion the official transition to a Biden administration -- President Donald Trump will take part in the traditional presidential turkey pardon on Tuesday.

Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris, meanwhile, are expected to continue with the rollout that began before the GSA made it official by introducing their nominees and appointees to key national security and foreign policy posts in Wilmington, Delaware, at 1 p.m. ET. 

A senior White House official said this year’s turkey pardon event will be smaller than years past due to the pandemic. Social-distancing and mask-wearing will be required, and those in close proximity to the president will be tested beforehand. 

This year, the turkeys will be Corn and Cobb. 

The lighthearted annual event, however, comes amid the sobering reality that the country has lost about 250,000 people since last Thanksgiving due to the pandemic, as watchers of the president wonder which other pardons might be coming as he serves out his last weeks and as the president continues not to concede the election.

Notably, during his pardoning event in 2018, as Trump pardoned the lucky bird Carrots, he quipped that, “the winner of this vote was decided by a fair and open election conducted on the White House website.” 

“This was a fair election,” he said at the time. “Unfortunately, Carrots refused to concede and demanded a recount, and we’re still fighting with Carrots. And I will tell you, we’ve come to a conclusion: Carrots, I’m sorry to tell you, the result did not change.”
