Vice President Kamala Harris will preside over the ceremony certifying her loss to Donald Trump, four years after the January 6 Capitol attack.
Harris describes her role as a "sacred obligation" for ensuring a peaceful transfer of power, emphasizing the fragility of democracy.
Harris joins a select group of vice presidents who have certified their own election losses, including Richard Nixon and Al Gore.
The certification occurs against the backdrop of Trump's attempts to disrupt the process by falsely alleging voter fraud in 2021.
No disruptions are anticipated during the event, with assurances from Trump's transition team regarding a smooth transition of power.
