Joe Biden is officially the president-elect of the United States, defeating incumbent Donald Trump in the 2020 Election.
On Saturday (Nov. 7), Biden pulled ahead in Pennsylvania, giving him the electoral college votes needed to win the presidency, after states worked around the clock counting ballots.
With these results, Biden’s running mate Sen. Kamala Harris also becomes the first women to be elected as vice president.
