JAKARTA - Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have won the election for President of the United States (US). In his victory speech, Biden revealed that this would be a new beginning for the US.

"I promise to be a president who tries not to divide but unify, who does not see the red states and the blue states, sees only the United States," said Biden as quoted by The Washington Post, Sunday, November 8.

Together with Kamala Harris, Biden won after getting a total of 290 electoral votes ahead of Donald Trump and Mike Pence who got 214 votes. That number has exceeded the threshold of 270 electoral votes needed - out of a total of 538 electoral votes - to win the US presidential election.

Biden himself said it was time for America to "unite" and get rid of anger. This was greeted with great fanfare by supporters who had gathered in Wilmington Delaware, at around 8:00 p.m. local time or 8:00 a.m. WIB in Indonesia.

Vice president-elect Kamala Harris expressed his victory in the presidential election with Joe Biden showing the democratic attitude of the people of the United States.

Harris thanked supporters for choosing him and Joe Biden. He said the US would enter a new chapter of life.

"And when our democracy is in this election vote with an American soul at stake and the world watching, you welcome a new day for America," he added.
