Who is qualified to declare the election results?

 Judging from the number of votes obtained by the electoral college, Biden has won. Since trump has not recognized the result of the defeat and claimed that Biden’s vote was fraudulent, the election results of this year have not been released until now. Now it’s just Biden’s unilateral announcement that he won the election, but the U.S. official has never “officially declared” Biden’s victory.

The United States is unique in that it has no national election commission, so there is no official body to announce the election results. By default, news organizations assume this role, and the associated press is the leader. Since 1848, the associated press has been responsible for announcing the results of the U.S. general election. AP executive editor Sally buzby has said in an interview that the associated press will not predict the outcome of a presidential election, or even list the obvious or possible winners. They will announce the election results “based on facts, mathematics and state laws” after confirming that the number of votes of the backward candidate has been unable to win.

The official announcement of the election results shall be announced according to the results of the vote counting after the voters have voted. According to the constitution of the United States, the electoral college vote will be held on the first Monday (December 14, this year) after the second Wednesday of December after the counting of votes. Most states have laws requiring their electors to vote for the state’s winning presidential candidate.
