Joe Biden Elected 46th President of US After Pennsylvania Win
Democratic candidate Joe Biden was elected the 46th president of the United States to end all speculation.
According to CNN, Biden won 273 electoral votes. That means he will be sworn in as U.S. president in January next year. Biden defeated U.S. President Donald Trump, who got 213 electoral votes, to become the next president of the state on Saturday.
Joe Biden has so far won more than 73 million votes, says a BBC report. No president in America was elected with the votes of so many people. On the other hand, Donald Trump secured about 70 million votes. It is also the second-largest vote in the U.S. presidential election.
His security was strengthened by Friday afternoon following his win-win situation in the election. The number of security personnel around the house is increasing. His home and the surrounding area in Wilmington, Delaware state, was declared a “no-fly zone”. The US National Defense Air Space identified Joe Biden’s home area as a “no-fly zone”.
