Joe Biden, Democratic candidate for the US Presidential Elections, disclosed Friday night that he has already begun preparations for work as President of the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden gave the speech at Wilmington, Delaware. He emphasized his victory in the election, although votes are still being counted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘We don\u2019t have a final declaration of victory yet,’ he stated, ‘but the numbers tell us it\u2019s clear. We are going to win this race’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden further stated that he and his running mate were already meeting with experts in preparation for the White House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the speech, Biden was taking the lead in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada and Pennsylvania where Trump was previously leading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He stated that Americans had bestowed on him ‘mandate for action’ on the coronavirus pandemic, the economy, climate change and systemic racism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biden continued: ‘We\u2019re beating Donald Trump by over four million votes, and that\u2019s a margin that is still growing as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘One of the things I\u2019m especially proud of is how well we\u2019ve done well across America,’ he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He apologized for the slow vote counting process stating that he understood the frustrations of many Americans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He urged them not to forget that ‘the tallies aren\u2019t just numbers. They represent votes and voters, men and women who exercised their fundamental right to have their voice heard.’<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump, on the other hand, warned Biden in a tweet not to ‘wrongfully claim’ victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Joe Biden should not wrongfully claim the office of the President. I could make that claim also. Legal proceedings are just now beginning,’ Trump stated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
