Members of the US electoral college have affirmed Joe Biden's presidential election victory, one of the final steps required for him to take office.
The Democrat won November's contest with 306 electoral college votes to Republican Donald Trump's 232.
Under the US system, voters actually cast their ballots for "electors", who in turn, formally vote for candidates weeks after the election.
Despite this process, Trump is not expected to accept the result.
