Before that, however, the electoral college will come into play. The states are given a certain number of electoral votes based on their population. They give all of their electoral college votes to anyone who wins the most votes in each state.
This is confirmed after the December 17th meetings, the BBC writes.
Later, the new US Congress meets on 6 January to officially count election college votes and confirm the new president.
