On Saturday morning AP, CNN, and NBC projected Joe Biden the winner of the 2020 presidential election, made official with the securing of Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral votes.
Biden had been steadily leading in GA, AZ, NV, and Pennsylvania when news organizations called Pennsylvania in his favor. This put him over the required 270 electoral votes.
Muscogee County voters showed 61.47% in favor of the Democratic nominee.
The state has already announced a recount will be in order for GA, which flipped blue this week.
