Joe Biden and Kamala Harris Have Won the U.S. Presidential Election!

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will soon become the 46th president and 49th vice president of the United States, respectively.

Trump's reign of corruption and ineptitude will soon be at an end. Earlier today, CNN, the Associated Press and other major news outlets called the presidential election in Joe Biden's favor...with Barack Obama's former vice president having won 290 electoral votes (thanks to battleground states Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin—with Arizona and Nevada's help) and Trump currently being at 214. While the race hasn't been called in Alaska, Georgia and North Carolina yet (as shown below), Biden is nevertheless 20 points above the threshold needed to be reached in order to secure the presidency. Woohoo!

What makes this election particularly special [apart from the fact the American people have spoken, and Trump's unorthodox (and un-American) way of governing the United States will not continue past next January] is me having the huge opportunity to meet Vice President-elect Kamala Harris last year! Click on this Blog entry for more details about that. It's so awesome that Harris has officially broken the glass ceiling in regards to not only becoming the first woman to be elected into the second-highest position in the Executive Branch, but she will also be the first female of African-American and Asian-American descent to do so too! It's a great day for the United States! January 20, 2021 can't arrive soon enough.

About to get an autograph by Kamala Harris (currently U.S. Senator) at the Barnes & Noble bookstore at The Grove in Los Angeles...on January 13, 2019.
