Joe Biden will be the next president of the United States

Joe Biden will be the 46th president of the United States. All the major media in the country, such as CNN, NBC, ABC, Associated Press and Fox News announced in mid-afternoon on Saturday that the Democratic candidate had emerged victorious from his duel against current President Donald Trump.

Four days after the elections held on Tuesday, November 3, Americans have been able to find out who will lead the White House as of next January. The Biden’s win in Pennsylvania has been key, since it gave the Democrat 273 votes, surpassing the 270 needed to obtain a majority. Later it was known that it was also imposed in Nevada, which was a definitive triumph.

At the time of writing, Joe Biden would reach 279 electoral votes, well above Trump’s 214., which represents a 50.5% of the votes versus 47.7% of the outgoing president. In figures, 74,493,496 voters vs. 70,344,725, an advantage of more than four million, the greatest support received by a president in history from the United States.

A part of the votes from Arizona, Georgia, Alaska and North Carolina still have to be counted, so surely the final count will not be known for a few days.

Biden’s victory also marks a historic milestone, Kamala Harris to become the first vice president in history from the United States.

Millions of sympathetic Democratic and anti-Trump citizens have taken to the streets to celebrate. Cities like Washington, New York, Los Angeles, and Detroit, among others, have been filled with pro-Biden flags to celebrate Trump’s defeat.

In an official statement, Joe Biden has assured that he will be the president of all americanswhether they voted for him or not. He also said he was “honored and humbled by the trust you have placed in me and Vice President Kamala Harris.” The publication added: “In the face of unprecedented obstacles, a record number of Americans have voted, proving once again that democracy is pounding in the heart of America. It is time for America to unite, for America to heal. We are the United States of America and there is nothing that we will not be able to do if we do it together. ”

For its part, Donald Trump has refused to acknowledge his defeat. The still president has posted on Twitter: “I have won these elections by a lot.” He later reported: “Legal votes decide who is the president, not the media. Joe Biden has not been certified as a winner in any state.”

Although Trump may start a judicial career to question the victory of the Democrat, the truth is that few representative voices of his party are showing their support at this time. In Europe, in addition, the leaders of the main nations, such as Angela Merkel and Emmanuel Macron have already congratulated Biden for your victory.
