As the presidential vote count nears the end of its second day, former Vice President Joe Biden urged his supporters to remain calm. "The process is working," he emphasized in brief remarks from Wilmington, Delaware.

Biden added that he and his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris, "continue to feel very good about where things stand," but that "each ballot must be counted and that's what we're going to see going through now." His remarks stand in sharp contrast to those made by President Trump, who tweeted "STOP THE COUNT!" on Thursday morning as his path to victory showed signs of narrowing.

"Democracy is sometimes messy," Biden reminded his supporters. "It sometimes requires a little patience."
