After winning the key state of Pennsylvania on Nov. 7, 2020, Democratic nominee Joe Biden clinched the necessary 270 electoral votes needed to emerge victorious over President Donald Trump. "America, I'm honored that you have chosen me to lead our great country," Biden tweeted following his win. "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." As for Biden's vice president, California Sen. Kamala Harris, she wrote, "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."
