Vice President Harris to Oversee Congress Certifying Trump's Victory, Four Years After Capitol Riot
Jan 6, 2025, 02:33 PM
Congress convenes at 1 p.m. EST on January 6, 2025, to formally certify President-elect Donald Trump's historic victory in the 2024 election, exactly four years after the Capitol riot. Despite a massive winter storm sweeping across Washington D.C., the proceedings will go ahead as planned, with Vice President Kamala Harris presiding over the certification in a joint session. Harris, who lost the election to Trump, is the first vice president since Al Gore to oversee her own electoral defeat. She released a video stating that she will fulfill her "constitutional duty" and that the certification is a "sacred obligation," emphasizing that "our democracy can be fragile." House Speaker Mike Johnson affirmed that the storm will not impede the process, stating, "Whether we're in a blizzard or not... this is done." Security measures have been heightened, with the Capitol under heavy security to prevent any disruptions during the proceedings.
