Joe Biden was officially announced the president-elect of the United States Saturday (Nov. 7) after winning Pennsylvania, putting him just over the 270 electoral votes he needed to win the presidency.
Biden defeats incumbent Donald Trump in this historical election and, with this victory, Sen. Kamala Harris becomes the first women to be elected as vice president.
Latin artists including Shakira, Becky G and Prince Royce took to social media to reflect and celebrate. Shakira, who had urged her fans to get out the vote, posted, “Celebrating with my children this new phase of unity and healing that begins now with Biden as new president elect.”
