The vice president-elect of the United States, Kamala Harris, published this Saturday (11/07/2020) on Twitter a video of the moment in which she phoned her running mate, President-elect Joe Biden, after the main media projected that they will win the elections.
“We did it! We did it Joe! You are going to be the next president of the United States,” Harris said over the phone, before bursting into a delighted laugh.
The short video shows Harris outdoors, dressed in sportswear, with her hair tied back and sunglasses, and with a broad smile on her face.
Harris, 56, the daughter of a Jamaican father and an Indian mother, published another message on Twitter shortly before in which she assured that these elections were not just about Biden or her.
“It is about the soul of the US and our willingness to fight for it. We have a lot of work ahead of us, let’s get started,” the senator wrote.
Biden, who is scheduled to give a prime-time speech, also reacted for the first time on Twitter to the proclamation of his victory, and declared himself “honored” that he had been chosen to lead the country.
“The work ahead of us will be tough, but I promise you this: I will be a president for all Americans, whether they voted for me or not. I will live up to the faith they have placed in me,” promised the president. elect.
Major television networks projected victory for Biden and Harris shortly before 11:30 AM EST (16:30 GMT), when Biden extended his lead in Pennsylvania to more than 30,000 votes over US President Donald Trump.
Shortly before, Trump had proclaimed on Twitter that he had won re-election “by a long shot”, something false.
