Biden is currently in the lead in Pennsylvania, Georgia and Nevada as ballots continue to count in each of the battlefield states. If any of those states won, they would win the presidential election.
The former vice president spent Friday at his home in Wilmington, Delaware, while waiting for the remaining votes to be counted. Throughout the week, he has urged his supporters to be patient and “keep the faith” as ballots continue to be processed.
“Democracy is sometimes complicated,” he said. “Sometimes it also takes a little patience. But that patience has now been rewarded for more than 240 years with a system of government that has been the envy of the world.”
