After the completion of the electoral votes, the results will be sent to Washington and tallied in a Jan. 6 joint session of Congress which will be presided over by the US Vice-President Mike Pence.

US President Donald Trump's refusal to concede defeat and threatening lawmakers in Michigan from both parties has raised the electors' votes getting more attention than usual this year. 

Legislative offices there were closed Monday over threats of violence.
 
Meeting of the 16 electors will be held in the Senate chamber in a ceremony headed by Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. 

Biden is planning to address the nation Monday night.

Meanwhile, not only is Trump adamant in his false claims that he won the election, but he also undermining Biden's presidency even before it begins.

"No, I worry about the country having an illegitimate president, that's what I worry about. A president that lost and lost badly," Trump said in a Fox News interview that was taped Saturday, CBC News reported.

On the other hand, several moderate Republicans in the Senate have already publicly accepted Biden's victory.

Biden is scheduled to be inaugurated as the 46th U.S. president on Jan. 20.
