Fort Worth – Democrat Joe Biden is now the 46th president elect of the United States. He crossed 270 electoral votes, surpassing the 270-vote threshold needed to win. After more than three days long uncertainty, finally Associated Press projected Biden’s victory when he wins Pennsylvania.
Biden, in his brief address yesterday, urged the unity. “We may be opponents – but we are not enemies. We are Americans,” he said. He might face series of challenges like pandemic, social turmoil, and unequal economy when he walks in the White House as president in January.
