Update: Georgia’s top elections official announced on Friday afternoon that the state has finally certified the results of the 2020 general election---following a snafu earlier in the day where the Secretary of State’s office announced it certified the election, but later, it sent out a news release with a “correction” saying it would be certified later.

Trump’s campaign can seek a machine recount of the ballots in Georgia by Tuesday, Nov. 24. Republican Gov. Brian Kemp has until Saturday to approve electors that will be sent to the Electoral College.
