Last night, gleeful Biden supporters packed the street in front of the Chase Center in his hometown of Wilmington, Delaware. They waited for him to get there and give his victory speech.
But hours passed as the dramatic vote count continued in the four states where Biden has a small but seemingly decisive lead over Donald Trump. The democratic challenger approached the final victory with slow but sure steps.
“Come see the written history”
– We came here to see written history. We are ready to take back our country. Biden is like a neighbor, he’s a warm and caring person who cares about everyone, says teacher Tammy Lundsford.
She took the children to the downtown Wilmington area.
– It’s been a difficult time, so getting something like this to wait means a lot, she says with tears in her eyes.
The drama continued when Joe Biden last night with slow but sure steps approached the electoral victory.
Trump’s wild accusations
At the same time, Donald Trump continued to launch outlandish accusations of election fraud and incite against the counting of votes.
The atmosphere at the White House last night was gloomy and upsetting. Donald Trump and those around him began to realize that the election was lost. At least the election was decided by vote, because Trump intends to fight for the courts to overturn the results.
Trump is in a “miserable state of mind,” according to media reports. The president will have an unusually short stub and is pressuring his lawyers to intervene in the electoral process in several states.
Trump won’t give up
“He wants them to stop the bill, he’s yelling at everyone to use their assets, their power and their money to stop the bill,” Omarosa Manigault, a former Trump adviser, told Sky News.
Trump shows no signs of giving up. He waits for the courts, especially the Supreme Court, where he himself has ensured that conservative judges are in the majority.
“The United States Supreme Court must rule!” tweeted yesterday.
Biden waits at home
Joe Biden expected the result at home in Wilmington. He radiated calm and seemed convinced that victory was near.
– I ask everyone to be calm. The process works, it is the will of the voters. No one else is electing a president of the United States, he said.
Last night, the security service sent reinforcements to protect Biden, as they always do when it is clear that there is an incoming president. A flight ban was also introduced in the area around Biden’s Wilmington home.
Roads are closed
Samantha Diedrick lives a few hundred yards from Joe Biden in Greenville, outside Wilmington. For her, the change is obvious: now she has to get past the police to let her in on her own.
– We were warned in advance. Some here are very upset, but I think right now it feels very safe. The big difference now is that the road is completely closed when Biden enters, but it is acceptable, he says.
Joe Biden led in four states last night while vote counting prevailed: Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada. His leadership in Pennsylvania, a state that Trump must win to be reelected, was more than 9,000 votes.
So the door to the White House was open last night for the 77-year-old political veteran Biden. He only needed a few more votes for her to open wide for him.
