Electors across the country gathered on Monday, under a cloud of tensions and in some cases outright threats, to formally certify Joe Biden as the next U.S. president.
Protesters carrying Trump flags gathered near the capitol in Pennsylvania as the state prepared to cast its 20 electoral votes for Biden. Electors in Wisconsin were told to use a side door to enter the capitol to avoid expected protests, according to The New York Times. Legislative office buildings in Michigan were closed for the day due to what officials called credible threats of violence.
