The Georgia secretary of state certified the state's 2020 presidential election results Friday, officially declaring President-elect Joe Biden the winner of the state’s 16 electoral votes. Georgia’s results on Friday showed Biden with a 0.25% lead over Trump, which is equal to about 12,670 votes. But the Trump campaign has two days to request a recount because the margins are so close. During the 2016 election cycle, Trump defeated Democratic challenger Hillary Clinton by a margin of about 5% in Georgia. The last time the state voted for a Democratic candidate in the presidential election was 1992, when former President Bill Clinton won.
