Democrat presidential nominee, Joe Biden, is on-course to be the 46th President of the United States of America as he has been announced as the president-elect by the media following a keenly contested presidential election. Counting is still ongoing in most states and incumbent, Donald Trump has embarked on lawsuits to challenge the results from some states, alleging election fraud.
Biden, who turns 78 at the end of this month, will become the oldest president when he is inaugurated in January while Trumps will join the ranks of presidents who lost after a single tenure.
Biden’s inauguration will take place in the middle of seemingly the worst public health crisis in 100 years, the deepest economic slump since the 1930s and a national reckoning on racism and police brutality that is still unresolved.
Many are ecstatic that he won the election as they see his win as a step forward to ending racism and police brutality in the US as well as a beginning of a meaningful response to the coronavirus pandemic, which has infected more than 10 million and killed over 240,000 Americans.
