“My fellow Americans, we don’t have a final declaration of victory yet, but the numbers tell us it’s clear — tell us a clear and convincing story,” Biden announced. “We’re going to win this race. Just look at what has happened since yesterday. 24 hours we were behind in Georgia, now we’re ahead, and we’re going to win that state. 24 hours ago we were behind in Pennsylvania, and we are going to win Pennsylvania. And now we are ahead, but we are winning in Arizona, we’re winning in Nevada, in fact, our lead just doubled in Nevada.”
“We’re on track to over 300 electoral votes, electoral college votes,” Biden said. “And look at the national numbers. We’re going to win this race with a clear majority, with the nation behind us. We’ve gotten 74 million votes. I’m going to repeat that, 74 million votes. That’s more than any other presidential ticket has gotten in the United States of America. And our vote total is still growing. We’re beating Donald Trump by over 4 million votes and the margin is still growing as well.”
“The purpose of politics is not unrelenting warfare,” he said. “It’s to solve problems, to guarantee justice, to give everybody a fair shot. And to improve the lives of our people. We may be opponents, but we’re not enemies. We’re Americans. Aand no matter who you voted for, I’m certain of one thing. The vast majority of the 150 million Americans who voted, they want to get the vitriol out of our politics.”
“We have to put the anger and demonization behind us. It’s time for us to come together as a nation to heal,” Biden said. “We don’t have any more time to waste on partisan warfare. And more than that, we have an incredible opportunity to build the future we want for our kids and grandkids. I’ve said many times, I’ve never been more optimistic about the future of the nation.”
