Biden urges Trump to accept election defeat
In his speech after securing the electoral college votes needed to be officially declared the winner of the 2020 US election, United States President-elect Joe Biden urged sitting President Donald Trump to concede the White House race.
Biden underscored that he won 306 votes, the same amount that Trump won when taking office in 2016, which the head of state then celebrated as a “landslide” victory.
“By his own standards these numbers represented a clear victory then and I respectfully suggest they do so now,” Biden added, urging Trump and Vice President Mike Pence to acknowledge defeat.
