It took several days of vote counting, but we finally have a projected winner in the 2020 presidential race.

Former Vice President Joe Biden will be the 46th president, CNN projects, denying Donald Trump a second term in office. A victory in Biden's native Pennsylvania put the Democrat over the 270 electoral votes needed to secure the presidency.

Across the country, Biden supporters poured into the streets to celebrate his win.
