Today, senators have convened in the House chamber to carry out the important task of counting and certifying the 'certificates of vote' from various states to finalize the results of the presidential election.
Vice President Kamala Harris, who is set to oversee the certification process, was seen alongside recently re-elected House Speaker Mike Johnson as they prepared to carry out their duties.
This process marks a crucial step in the transition of power as the results of the election are officially recognized and certified by the legislative branch of the government.
Despite the historical significance of this event, it is important to note that Vice President Harris, who lost the presidential election to President-elect Donald Trump, is fulfilling her constitutional duty in overseeing the certification process.
The presence of both Vice President Harris and Speaker Johnson underscores the bipartisan nature of this process, highlighting the importance of upholding the democratic principles on which the nation was founded.
As the senators gather in the House chamber, they are poised to carry out their responsibilities with diligence and respect for the democratic process, ensuring that the will of the people is upheld and the transition of power is conducted smoothly and in accordance with the law.
Stay tuned for further updates as the certification process unfolds and the results of the presidential election are officially confirmed.
