Joe Biden, Democratic presidential candidate, addressing the Americans from Wilmington in Delaware on Friday, said “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. We are going to win this race.” His running mate Kamala Harris stood nearby on stage, reported CNN.

Biden is inching closer to the White House while counting of votes continue in key battleground states.

He said, “We don’t have a final declaration of victory yet, but the numbers tell us it’s clear. We are going to win this race. Just look at what has happened since yesterday. Twenty four hours we were behind in Georgia, now we’re ahead, and we are going to win that state. Twenty four 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, and in fact our lead just doubled in Nevada. We’re on track for over 300 electoral votes, electoral college votes. And look at the national numbers. We’re going to win this race with a clear majority, with the nation behind us.”
