Democrat Joe Biden said it was an honor for Americans to elect him president, adding that now is the time to heal any remaining divisions from the election campaign.
“I am honored and humbled by the trust the American people have placed in me and Vice President (Kamala) Harris. In the face of unprecedented obstacles, a record number of Americans voted,” Biden said on Twitter.
“With the end of the campaign, it is time to leave the anger and fiery rhetoric behind and come together as a nation. It is time for the United States to come together. And heal.”
In another Twitter message, Biden vowed to be the “president of all Americans”:
“America, I am honored to have been elected head of our great nation. The work ahead will be hard, but I promise you this: I will be the president of all Americans, whether they vote for me or not,” he wrote.
