In California, the Electoral College meets in the Assembly Chamber several weeks after the presidential election. The results are sent to the U.S. Senate, where the votes from all 50 states are tallied. Pictured above is elector Delores Huerta, who is holding up ballots for Barack Obama and Joe Biden on December 17, 2012.
Pride of place: A bust of socialist Cesar Chavez now sits behind Biden. He is a hero of the LatinX civil rights movement and founded a union which later became the United Farm Workers of America.
