US News: December

By: Chloe Wilson

On December 19, 2016, the states gave their electoral college votes. Trump received 306 electoral votes whereas Clinton received 232. California alone has 55 electoral votes to give, all of which went to Clinton. Still, Trump managed to pull ahead and is scheduled to become the next president. The official inauguration date is set for January 20, 2017.

Unfortunately the beloved Carrie Fisher, who played Princess Leia in the Star Wars series, passed on December 28, 2016. On the day after, her mother, Debbie Reynolds, passed, as well. Their deaths have shaken the global community as people from all across the world mourn their deaths.
