I will be a President for all Americans - whether you voted for me or not: Biden

US President-Elect Joe Biden has said that he will be a President for all Americans after he was projected as a winner.

Biden took to Twitter to convey his first reaction on November 7 and wrote, "America, I’m honored that you have chosen me to lead our great country. The work ahead of us will be hard, but I promise you this: I will be a President for all Americans — whether you voted for me or not. I will keep the faith that you have placed in me."

He has been elected as the 46th president of the United States. He served as Vice President from 2008 to 2016 under Barack Obama’s Presidentship. At the age of 77, he is the oldest President in the history of the US.

Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris also expressed her views through her Twitter handle and said that the current election was about so much more than @JoeBiden or her.

"This election is about so much more than @JoeBiden or me. It’s about the soul of America and our willingness to fight for it. We have a lot of work ahead of us. Let’s get started," she said.

Biden needed just 270 electoral votes to win but he crossed the majority mark and left his opponent Donald Trump behind. Interestingly Trump claimed himself a winner earlier. He had even tweeted, "I WON THIS ELECTION, BY A LOT!"
