 make progress. We have to stop treating our opponents as our enemies. They are not our enemies. They are Americans. They are Americans. The most prevalent emotion among the thousands of attendees that night was relief. As Biden and Harris spoke from Wellington, Delaware, the president elects home state. Delawareans in the audience, like Chris Chaden, said it was a unique experience to have one of their own in office. We're from Delaware, so it's quite a proud day to be a Delawarean and just a good day for humanity. VP elect Harris is the first woman, African American and Asian American to take second in command to the most powerful position in the country and arguably the world. For Delaware resident Kristen Dowdy, Harris' election was momentous. We've been waiting for a woman in the White House for a long time and we're on the right path. Mending the divide between Americans on both sides of the aisle became a major theme for Biden's speech and audience members like India Kennedy. She says it's time for change. At this point, I just want him to reunite the country. Just because we disagree doesn't mean we can't be friends. While Biden's supporters popped champagne bottles across the country, Sidney Abili and her family drank rosé from plastic flutes. I feel like the sun came out after the results came out and it's been a great day. Go Biden! Go Biden! Reporting from Wilmington, Delaware, for Boston University, I'm Will Andronico.
