As of press time, the Associated Press and all major networks declared Joe Biden as President Elect in the 2020 presidential election.
In a history making election, over 145 million votes were cast for the two presidential candidates. Biden had run unsuccessfully for president twice before but emerged victorious in his third attempt.
His running mate, Vice President Elect Kamala Harris will be the first woman, first black person, and first Indian American person to hold the office of Vice President.
The Skinker DeBaliviere community showed up in force for this election, as many neighbors voted before election day, and long lines were witnessed on election day. World Central Kitchen donated a bagged breakfast, lunch, and dinner to all waiting in line or just passing by. Voters were patient and allowed those who were elderly to the front despite the lines. Missouri voters elected a nearly complete republican ticket with Mike Parson winning his first full term as Governor, and Mike Kahoe winning Lt. Governor, and Jay Ashcroft winning the Secretary of State.
