Photos of the day: The aftermath - Roll Call

Much of the Capitol complex was dirty and damaged on Thursday following the violent attack by pro-Trump rioters during the Electoral College vote count on Wednesday.

Congress reconvened their joint session after the riot and certified the election results for President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris in the wee hours of the morning Thursday.

Here’s the day after in photos:
