The protests turned violent with five lakh Pro-Trump supporters causing chaos, opposing the Congressional vote affirming Biden’s victory. This led to clashes and the security personnel resorted to open fire to disperse the rioters, this led to the death of four persons including a woman. A tense atmosphere prevailed turning Washington DC into a battleground.
At last, Trump concedes defeat
Having no option left, Trump in a last desperate attempt tried to instigate his supporters to block the Congressional vote affirmation of Biden’s electoral college victory. Even the American Congress confirmed Biden victory thereby clearing the way for Biden’s inauguration on January 20th as the 46th President of the United States. The Congress announced that Biden garnered the magic figure of 270 votes, required to form the government. When 306 members in the electoral college vouched for Joe Biden, only 232 supported Trump. This brings to an end the six – month election process in the United States.
