Thelagostimes reports that US networks projected that Biden won the state of Georgia to get 306 votes in the Electoral College but 270 votes are required for election.
Meanwhile, Biden has continued with his transition plans, saying Trump’s refusal to concede his election loss was an “embarrassment”.
“I just think it’s an embarrassment, quite frankly,” Biden said when asked what he thinks about Trump’s refusal to acknowledge defeat in the November 3 election.
