They'll vote for Biden. Biden won the election. He's the President Elect.

We vote. The electors are pledged to our vote. And we voted a month ago. Biden won the election. So he's the President Elect.

From Wiki:

According to legal experts, use of the title "president-elect" is often informal, indicating the candidate projected to win in the electoral college vote. However, the candidate does not officially become the president-elect until "after the General Services Administration initiates the transfer of power by 'ascertaining' the election results and Congress officially counts the electoral votes on Jan. 6."[10]

Right, so do you see how that first sentence you copy and pasted explains that it is the correct term to use in all but the most ceremonial of technicalities?
