WASHINGTON (AP) — Congress has convened under heavy security and a snowstorm to certify the 2024 election results for President-elect Donald Trump, with the reading of the electoral results from the states coming swiftly and without unrest. The legacy of Jan. 6, 2021, hangs over Monday’s proceedings as the Republican who tried to overturn the previous election is legitimately returning to power. As lawmakers gathered, the tightest national security is in place. It’s a reminder of what happened at the U.S. Capitol four years ago, when a defeated Trump sent a mob to “fight like hell.” Republicans who challenged Trump’s 2020 defeat support his White House return. Democrats accept the choice of the American voters.
