We can breathe again for democracy. And celebrate @kamalaharris’ historic, but long overdue, achievement as first female, first South-Asian-American, first Black American elected Vice President of the United States. Today I am so grateful for the millions of people who voted for love and sanity and justice. I am so grateful for our children. And now I’m looking forward to being part of the necessary work we’ll have to put in to our communities to get over these painful times.

The ppl have spoken. Organizing & resisting for 4 yrs & it has paid off. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to Black voters, especially Black women.

Biden and Harris addressed their supporters from a parking lot in Delaware, where they thanked their supporters and promised to get to work, pronto.

"The people of this nation have spoken. They have delivered us a clear victory, a convincing victory," Biden said.

On Sunday morning, President Rodrigo Duterte, on behalf of the Philippines, congratulated Biden for winning the presidency in the US, presidential spokesperson Harry Roque said in a statement sent to media.

"On behalf of the Filipino nation, President Rodrigo Roa Duterte wishes to extend his warm congratulations to former Vice President Joseph 'Joe' Biden on his election as the new President of the United States of America," Roque said. — LA, GMA News
