Thepresidential transition ofJoe Biden began on November 7, 2020, and ended on January 20, 2021. Unlike previous presidential transitions, which normally take place during the roughly 10-week period between the election in the first week of November and the inauguration on January 20, Biden's presidential transition was shortened somewhat because theGeneral Services Administration under the outgoingfirst Trump administration did not recognize Biden as the "apparent winner" until November 23.

Biden became the presumptive nominee of theDemocratic Party forpresident in April 2020, and formally accepted the nomination the following August. Biden's transition team, led byTed Kaufman, had already been announced on June 20. Further co-chairs joined the team alongside Kaufman in September. The2020 presidential election took place on November 3. That evening, incumbent presidentDonald Trump declared himself the winner, based on his initial lead in tabulated in-person votes — a situation which was widely anticipated and quickly discredited as meaningless, since the votes counted at the time were not representative of the final total and it takes several days to count all the votes. Trumpcontinued to falsely insist that he had won, alleging without evidence that Biden's increasing lead was due to widespread fraud, corruption, and other misconduct. He challenged the results in multiple lawsuits in multiple states, none of which resulted in a substantive victory.[1][2][3][4] Because of Trump's denials, there was a several-week delay before his administration began even limited cooperation with the Biden team.

After three and a half days of vote counting, on November 7, at approximately 11:30 a.m. EST, theAssociated Press, along with major TV networks includingCNN,ABC News,CBS News,NBC News, andFox News, called the race for Joe Biden. After that, most sources described him as the president-elect. Nonetheless,GSA administratorEmily Murphy, a Trump appointee, waited until November 23 to issue the "ascertainment" letter declaring Biden the "apparent winner"[5][6] on the basis that Trump still disputed the election result. The declaration marked the official start of the transition, and withholding it from the Biden team had denied them $6.3 million, office space,government website status, and access to agencies.[7][8] Separately, Biden was denieddaily classified national security briefings[9][10][11] until the Trump administration approved Biden's receiving such briefings on November 24.[12]

TheElectoral College met on December 14, 2020, to formally elect Biden andKamala Harris respectively, aspresident andvice president. The results were to becertified by ajoint session of Congress on January 6, 2021, but due to an attempt by Trump supporters to overturn the results bystorming and vandalizing the Capitol building, the certification was not completed until January 7.[13][14][15] Biden's transition ended when he wasinaugurated on January 20, 2021, at which pointhis presidency began.

Background issues

Preparations for potential disputed election

[edit]
See also:Big lie § Donald Trump's false claims of a stolen election, andPost-election lawsuits related to the 2020 United States presidential election

As early as the summer of 2020, President Donald Trump began questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 election, saying that the increase ofmail-in voting in the election compared to previous elections will lead to a "rigged election".[16][17] For this reason, many pundits and editorial writers would insist that Biden would need to win by alandslide to prevent Trump from challenging the result.[18][19][20] Trump's preemptive accusations of fraud led some people to consider what would happen if he should lose by a margin less than a landslide.[21][22] At various points, Trump had called for hisattorney general,William Barr, to investigate Biden and his sonHunter, with Trump frequently insisting that his opponent should be in prison.[23]

Rosa Brooks, who worked in theDepartment of Defense during theObama administration, co-founded theTransition Integrity Project (TIP), which in June 2020 ran a series of "wargaming" exercises to explore potential election and transition scenarios. In August 2020, TIP released a widely discussedreport that outlined four 2020 election crisis scenario planning exercises for the2020 United States presidential election.[24] The scenarios examined by TIP included a decisive Biden win, a decisive Trump win, a narrow Biden win, and a period of extended uncertainty after the election.[25] Other academics, such as Lawrence Douglas in his bookWill He Go?: Trump and the Looming Election Meltdown in 2020, have also discussed the possibility, which later turned out to be true, of Trump refusing to concede if he lost.[26]

Per the20th Amendment, the vice president must count the electoral votes in front of Congress's joint session on January 6, 2021. This is governed by theElectoral Count Act of 1887, passed to prevent crises such as that in1876–77, and while provisions have been used, the act has never been truly put to the test.[27] The Biden legal team had prepared for this, drafting basic responses to each of the possible litigations gamed out by the TIP and others.[28] The only one of the more than sixty cases which had not been dismissed out of hand was about late-arriving mail-in ballots.[29]

Delays in initiating the transition

[edit]
Main article:Emily W. Murphy § 2020 presidential transition
Administrator of General ServicesEmily Murphy withheld transition resources until November 23.

Though Joe Biden was generally acknowledged aspresident-elect in the election on November 7, 2020,[30][31][32][33]General Services Administration headEmily Murphy refused to initiate the transition to the president-elect, thereby denying funds and office space to his team.[7][34]

Murphy refused to sign a letter (the "ascertainment" determination) allowing Biden's transition team to formally begin work to facilitate anorderly transition of power. By refusing to allow the Biden administration transition to proceed, she prevented the incoming administration from obtaining office space, performing background checks on prospective Cabinet nominees, and accessing classified information which might be needed to respond to emergencies that the administration confronts when in office. Murphy's withholding of the letter also blocked President-elect Biden's transition team from accessing several million dollars in federal transition funds for salaries and other costs, establishing government email addresses, and working with theOffice of Government Ethics on required financial disclosure and conflict-of-interest forms for incoming nominees.Amid public speculation that her refusal might jeopardize national security and public health, Murphy began a job search for herself, inquiring about employment opportunities in 2021.[35][36][37]

On November 8, the nonpartisan Center for Presidential Transition issued a statement saying "We urge the Trump administration to immediately begin the post-election transition process and the Biden team to take full advantage of the resources available under thePresidential Transition Act."[38][39] The letter was signed by several experts in presidential transitions:Joshua Bolten, PresidentGeorge W. Bush's former chief of staff;Mike Leavitt, former governor of Utah and Bush's Secretary of Health and Human Services;Mack McLarty, Bill Clinton's former chief of staff; andPenny Pritzker, Barack Obama's Secretary of Commerce.[39]

Andrew Card, the first White House chief of staff under George W. Bush, expressed concern about the delay, noting that "the 9/11 Commission had said if there had been a longer transition [in 2000] and there had been cooperation, there might have been a better response, or maybe not even any attack".[40] Four former Secretaries of Homeland Security,Tom Ridge,Michael Chertoff,Janet Napolitano, andJeh Johnson, called upon Murphy to initiate the transition, writing in a joint statement: "Our country is in the middle of twin crises: a global pandemic and a severe economic downturn. The pandemic will make any transition more complicated. At this period of heightened risk for our nation, we do not have a single day to spare to begin the transition. For the good of the nation, we must start now."[41][42]

Anthony Fauci, the government's leading infectious disease expert, warned the delay was "obviously not good" from a public health perspective, while President-elect Biden argued "more people may die" as a result of the delay.[43][44]

On November 23, after Michigan certified its results, Murphy issued the letter of ascertainment, granting the Biden transition team access to federal funds and resources for an orderly transition.[45] Breaking with recent precedent, the letter did not call Biden "president-elect", instead fulfilling her requirements under the Act without implying that he won the election.[46] In the letter Murphy called the Act "vague", recommended Congress "consider amendments to the Act" to improve the standard it sets for post-election allocation of resources, and described threats she had allegedly received pressuring her to act.[47]

Transition procedures

[edit]
Main article:United States presidential transition

In accordance with thePre-Election Presidential Transition Act of 2010, potential presidential transition teams are provided office space by theGeneral Services Administration (GSA). They are also eligible for government funding for staff; spending on Mitt Romney's transition team in 2012 was $8.9 million, all funds appropriated by theU.S. government. In order for the Biden transition team to formally begin working with federal agencies, access federal transition funds, and utilize government-provided office space, Biden had to be formally certified as president-elect by the administrator of the General Services Administration. After the media projected Biden to win the election, and as Trump refused to concede, the current GSA administrator, Trump appointee Emily W. Murphy, refused to sign a letter of authorization. She argued that she had seen no certification outside of the media that Biden has won, and was under no obligation to treat Biden as president-elect.[57][58]

Key responsibilities of a presidential transition include the identification and vetting of candidates for approximately 4,000 non-civil service positions in the U.S. government who serve at the pleasure of the president; arranging the occupancy of executive residences including theWhite House,One Observatory Circle, andCamp David; liaising with theUnited States Strategic Command for receipt of theGold Codes; and briefingsenior personnel about a new administration's policy priorities.[59]

Under existing federal law and custom, Biden became eligible to receive classified national security briefings when his nomination was formalized at theparty's national convention in August 2020.

The Presidential Transition Act was amended in 2019 to require the incumbent president to establish "transition councils" by June of an election year to facilitate a possible handover of power.[49][60]

Transition activities

[edit]

Establishment of the transition team

[edit]

Biden began to appoint transition staff in May 2020, chaired byTed Kaufman. Kaufman was previously appointed to Biden's senate seat following his resignation to become the Vice President.[61][62] Further staff were announced in September. The campaign had an estimated budget of $7–10 million and planned to have a staff of 300 people by early December 2020. Several working groups were set up in late September and early October.[63] Due to theCOVID-19 pandemic, much of the work was done overZoom.[64]

Biden launched his transition website at approximately 6:30 p.m. EST on November 4, a day after Election Day and before the final election results were in.[65]

Harris Senate transition

[edit]

Harris resigned her Senate seat on January 18, 2021, two days before assuming the vice presidency.[66] On January 19, 2021, California GovernorGavin Newsom announced that California Secretary of StateAlex Padilla succeeded Harris for the remainder of her term.[67]

Litigation

[edit]
Main article:Post-election lawsuits related to the 2020 United States presidential election
See also:Attempts to overturn the 2020 United States presidential election andTexas v. Pennsylvania

While the transition was ongoing, multiple lawsuits were filed to contest election procedures and results.[68] Most of these lawsuits were unsuccessful and were quickly dismissed.

COVID-19 Advisory Board

[edit]
Main article:COVID-19 Advisory Board

Before naming any White House staff or cabinet appointments, Biden announced that he will appoint a COVID-19 task force, co-chaired by former Surgeon GeneralVivek Murthy, former Food and Drug Administration CommissionerDavid Kessler and Yale University epidemiologist ProfessorMarcella Nunez-Smith, to replace the previousWhite House Coronavirus Task Force.[69][70]

Biden pledged a larger federal government response tothe pandemic than Donald Trump, akin to PresidentFranklin D. Roosevelt'sNew Deal following theGreat Depression. This would include increased testing for the COVID virus, a steady supply ofpersonal protective equipment, distributing a vaccine and securing money from Congress for schools and hospitals under the aegis of a national "supply chain commander" who would coordinate the logistics of manufacturing and distributing protective gear and test kits. This would be distributed by a "Pandemic Testing Board", also similar to Roosevelt'sWar Production Board.

Biden also pledged to invoke theDefense Production Act more aggressively than Trump in order to build up supplies, as well as the mobilization of up to 100,000 Americans for a "public health jobs corps" ofcontact tracers to help track and prevent outbreaks.[71] "Other members are Dr.Luciana Borio,Rick Bright, Dr.Ezekiel Emanuel, Dr.Atul Gawande, Dr.Celine Gounder, Dr.Julie Morita,Michael Osterholm,Loyce Pace, Dr.Robert Rodriguez and Dr.Eric Goosby."[72] Anthony Fauci confirmed on November 25 that he expected to begin working with the Biden transition team soon.[73]
