On Tuesday, the court of Minessota also confirmed Biden's win while the judges of North Carolina certified Trump's victory. 

On Tuesday, Pennsylvania and Nevada certified the election results that have confirmed that Democrat Joe Biden has won the United States' presidency.  This result has come as Donald Trump tried to discredit the results. Pennsylvania accounts for 20 electoral votes, and Nevada for six, out of the 270 required to become president.
