> A refusing to leave president.

No legal process has taken place that has declared Biden the winner.

No, and it won’t until December. However it is now clear that it _will_ happen. Traditionally, once it becomes inevitable, candidates concede.

[googthrowaway42]

Whether or not it will happen remains to be seen. Certainly I won't deny that among the people who have faith in the media (Biden supporters) they are convinced it will happen.

If you give a big probability for a Trump win, you can bet on it and be a millionaire easily with the current odds.

You mean besides having the necessary number of delegates?

He's been literally throwing lawsuits around to stop different states from continuing the counting. That to me says OP's words were accurate.

The elections aren't certified until a few weeks from now. The exact date varies from state to state. At that point each state selects its electors.

No electors have been selected yet.

The election is a legal process and it's declared him the presumptive winner. Same as Trump on election night in 2016.

Everything else that happens are formalities, however important and necessary. Other than the 2000 election, we haven't waited this long to announce the next president following a presidential election.

And it isn't even close, Biden has more differential votes by percentage than Nixon, Truman, or Reagan.

[googthrowaway42]

False. These are not just formalities. Corporate media making their declarations have no weight whatsoever.
