I am proud of the coalition we put together, the broadest and most diverse in history. To my campaign team, and all the volunteers, to all those who gave so much of themselves to make this moment possible, I owe you everything.Īnd to all those who supported us: I am proud of the campaign we built and ran. To all those who volunteered, worked the polls in the middle of this pandemic, local election officials - you deserve a special thanks from this nation. You’ve become honorary Bidens and there’s no way out. Kamala, Doug - like it or not - you’re family. But once again, America has bent the arc of the moral universe towards justice. It’s long overdue, and we’re reminded tonight of all those who fought so hard for so many years to make this happen. She has dedicated her life to education, but teaching isn’t just what she does - it’s who she is.įor America’s educators, this is a great day: You’re going to have one of your own in the White House, and Jill is going to make a great First Lady.Īnd I will be honored to be serving with a fantastic vice president - Kamala Harris - who will make history as the first woman, first Black woman, first woman of South Asian descent, and first daughter of immigrants ever elected to national office in this country. Jill’s a mom - a military mom - and an educator. I would not be here without the love and tireless support of Jill, Hunter, Ashley, all of our grandchildren and their spouses, and all our family. It is the honor of my lifetime that so many millions of Americans have voted for this vision.Īnd now the work of making this vision real is the task of our time.Īs I said many times before, I’m Jill’s husband. To make America respected around the world again and to unite us here at home. To rebuild the backbone of the nation - the middle class. I sought this office to restore the soul of America. Who doesn’t see Red and Blue states, but a United States.Īnd who will work with all my heart to win the confidence of the whole people.įor that is what America is about: The people.Īnd that is what our Administration will be about. I pledge to be a President who seeks not to divide, but to unify.

I am humbled by the trust and confidence you have placed in me. We have won with the most votes ever cast for a presidential ticket in the history of this nation - 81 million.
