State officials react to longtime Delaware senator Joe Biden winning the presidency

Joe Biden started his career in Delaware politics in 1969. Fifty-one years later, he will head to the White House after becoming the first Delawarean to be elected president.

"All aboard, folks. Delaware is headed to the White House," Sen. Tom Carper said on Twitter, with a photo of Gov. John Carney, Sen. Chris Coons, Rep. Lisa Bunt Rochester, Carper and Biden boarding an Amtrak train.

Some Delaware officials, many of whom spent years working with or around Biden, are celebrating Saturday following the finality of the 2020 election.

"We did it," tweeted Coons, who served as a Biden intern in the 1990s. "This victory belongs to all of the volunteers, supporters, donors, campaign staff, and people who came together, in whatever way they could, to save the soul of our nation."
