It's kind of complicated. This site explains it rather well:

NYC had its earliest sunset on the 7th. Here in Denver, it's happening around 4:35 pm each day.

But is the total daylight shortest on the 21st?
Here the sunrises and sunsets change in counterintuitive ways, but the shortest day is still the 21st.
Front-Ranger:
For quite some time, sunset here has been at 4:37 pm. You can set your watch by it.

4:33 here. This is the darkest week of the year.

In more ways than one. :(
Front-Ranger:
At last! Sunset is past 5 pm here in these parts. And sunrise is at 7:18 am.
Also, we may be headed towards the "January thaw" that we sometimes have. This morning, it rained for a bit.
