2025
Jan.6: The Vice president presides over the Electoral College vote count at a joint session of Congress, announces the results and declares who has been elected.
Before the count on January 6, 2021, then-President Trump slammed Mike Pence, his vice president, for refusing to try to stop Congress from certifying Biden’s victory. On that day, the U.S. Legislative hall was gone after by agitators and certain individuals recited, “hang Mike Pence” as they attempted to stop the count. The two offices of Congress later continued their work and guaranteed Biden’s success.
Since then, the Electoral Count Reform Act of 2022 has been passed by Congress. It now requires approval from one-fifth of the House and Senate before a challenge to a state’s results can be considered. This is a much higher requirement than it was before, when a challenge could be initiated by any one lawmaker from either chamber.
Jan. 20: The inauguration of the election winner and their vice president takes place. At this ceremony, the victor if officially sworn in and takes office.
