Joe Biden wins the presidency, unseating Donald Trump

Joe Biden is going to be the 46th President of the United States.

President Donald Trump’s term will end on January 20, 2021.

AP News, CNN, and Fox News all projected Biden’s victory after they determined that Biden will win in Pennsylvania. It has 20 electoral college votes. That puts Biden over the 270 electoral votes threshold for a victory.

AP and Fox News also said Biden won Nevada, which puts him further ahead over Trump.

Biden released a statement saying “I am honored and humbled by the trust the American people have placed in me and in Vice President-elect Harris.”

Trump issued a statement that Biden is falsely posting as the winner. He said on Monday his campaign will continue to challenge vote counts in court. He has claimed that there were illegal ballots.

Trump tweeted this morning that he “WON THIS ELECTION, BY A LOT!”

News reports from yesterday said Trump doesn’t plan to concede.

Biden received 74 million votes nationwide, which is the highest total that a presidential candidate has ever received in history.

Trump will be the first incumbent president to lose an election since George H.W. Bush in 1992.

Kamala Harris will be the first Black and South Asian woman to become vice president, and she will be the highest-ranking woman to ever serve in government.

Biden is 77 years old. He will turn 78 on November 20.

News videos show people celebrating in streets. There are also pro-Trump protesters.

The year 2020 continues to shock and change us as a nation. We had the coronavirus pandemic that is still raging in the U.S. today, then we had the anti-racist movement after the death of George Floyd, and we’ve had an election that unseated a president.

That’s all for now. Joe Biden is the president-elect.
