In a tweet after the result was announced, Mr. Biden wrote: “America, I am delighted that you have chosen me to lead our great country.

Mrs. Harris, a senator, tweeted: “This election is about so much more than @JoeBiden or me. It’s about the soul of America and our willingness to fight for it. We have a lot of work ahead of us. Let’s get started.”
