After being declared the winner of the presidential race for the next president of the United States of America, Joe Biden delivered a speech in Wilmington, Delaware.
"I am proud of the coalition we created together and the widest and most diverse coalition in history," he noted. "Democrats, Republicans, independents, conservatives, young people, the elderly, urbanites, rural, homosexuals, heterosexuals, transgender people, whites, Latinos, Asians, Native Americans. I really have it. ”
Meanwhile Kamala Harris accepted the position as vice president honoring the women who paved the way for her moment.
"Defending democracy requires war. It takes sacrifice. Yes there is joy in it. There is development. "Because we, the people, have the power to build a good future," she said.
In a moment of reflection, Harris remembered her mother, Shyamala Gopalan Harris, who left home in India for California in 1958, at the age of 19. "Maybe she did not imagine this moment," Harris said. "But she believed so deeply in an America where such a moment is possible."
"While I may be the first woman in this office," Kamala vowed, "but I will not be the last, because every little girl who is following us tonight sees that this is a place of opportunity."
