No he didn't. He got 74 million in 2020 and 72 million last night - that's a long way from the 15 million vote difference on the Democrat side.

So, what’s next? Well, the dust hasn’t fully settled from this election yet. There are still several House and Senate races that are too close to call, and some that may require recounts. Our focus remains on these areas, but we’re also looking ahead to what comes next in the 2024 election cycle. Here’s a breakdown of the critical milestones still to come:
Certificate of Ascertainment of Appointment of Electors: Deadline December 11, 2024
In every presidential election year, each state’s executive (governor or secretary of state) issues a Certificate of Ascertainment—a document that officially names the electors who will cast the state's electoral votes for president and vice president.
While this process was contentious in 2020, we hope that 2024 will see it carried out smoothly and without issues.
What’s included in the Certificate of Ascertainment?
Names of electors who are appointed to cast votes.
The state’s certified election results (the "canvass") showing the total number of votes cast and how they were distributed among presidential candidates.
The seal of the state, verifying the authenticity of the certificate.
A security feature to prevent fraud and verify the certificate’s legitimacy.
Meeting and Vote of Electors: December 17, 2024
On December 17, 2024—the first Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December—electors will meet in their respective states to cast their official votes for president and vice president. This is a key safeguard to ensure electors vote according to the certified results of the election.
During this meeting, electors must:
Cast their votes for president and vice president.
Sign multiple certificates affirming their votes.
Transmit these certificates to Washington, DC, and state officials.
These protocols ensure that the electors’ votes are legitimate, transparent, and in line with the outcome of their state’s election.
Deadline for Electoral Votes to Be Received: December 25, 2024
By December 25, 2024, all states must submit their electoral certificates to Washington, DC. If any certificates are not received by this deadline, the President of the Senate or the Archivist of the United States will request that the state’s chief election officer submit the missing certificate.
This step ensures that every electoral vote is accounted for and that the process remains transparent and timely.
The 119th Congress Convenes: January 3, 2025
On January 3, 2025, the 119th Congress will convene, and newly elected members will be sworn in. One of the first tasks in the House of Representatives will be the election of the Speaker of the House, which sets the stage for the important business ahead—including certifying the electoral votes.
Congress Counts Electoral Votes: January 6, 2025
On January 6, 2025, Congress will meet in a joint session at 1:00 p.m. to officially count and certify the electoral votes. The President of the Senate will preside, but their role is purely ministerial—they have no authority to unilaterally accept, reject, or alter the certified results of the electors.
If any objections are raised, they must be filed by both a member of the House and Senate, and they will be debated and voted upon according to established procedures. This process ensures that every electoral vote is thoroughly scrutinized and that the final result reflects the true will of the American people.
Inauguration Day: January 20, 2025
The newly elected president and vice president will take their oaths of office at 12:00 p.m. on January 20, 2025, marking the peaceful transition of power and reaffirming the strength of our democracy.
Looking Ahead
In addition to monitoring these milestones, our team will continue reviewing reports filed with us over these last few weeks, and preparing for advocacy opportunities in 2025, including reforms like photo voter ID, secure paper ballots, and accurate voter rolls!
CNN Analyst: “So you asked: are there any places that the vice president is overperforming Joe Biden in 2020? So we can show you that as well. We just bring that out here. Harris overperforming 2020.”
Jake Tapper: “Holy smokes”.
CNN election analyst: “There you go. So let this go away and see if there's anything on the east side there.”
Jake Tapper: “Literally nothing?”
CNN election analyst: “Literally nothing”.
Jake Tapper: “Literally not one county?”
