Cities across the U.S. erupted in celebration and, in some cases, protest on Saturday after Joe Biden was projected to be the winner of the presidential election.
Supporters of President Trump gathered in Phoenix, Raleigh, Harrisburg and other cities to protest the projected win.
Kamala Harris was cheered as she said in a speech Saturday evening on becoming the first woman and first female person of color to be elected vice president, "While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last."
