US President-elect Joe Biden is pledging to work toward unifying the country after a deeply divisive election. Incumbent President Donald Trump, however, still refuses to concede.
Votes are still being counted in some states. But a projected win in Pennsylvania gives Biden enough electoral college votes to take the White House. Major media outlets say Biden has won the state.
Biden said: "Folks, the people of this nation have spoken. They have delivered us a clear victory. A victory for 'We the people.' We have won with the most votes ever cast for a presidential ticket in the history of this nation -- 74 million."
He added: "I'm humbled by the trust and confidence you placed in me. I pledge to be a president who seeks not to divide, but unify, who doesn't see red states and blue states, only sees the United States."
His running mate, Kamala Harris, is set to become the country's first female vice president. She will also be the first African-American and Asian-American to assume the post.
Trump issued a statement after the media reported Biden's win. He said: "The simple fact is this election is far from over."
The president has been actively engaged on social media, tweeting unfounded claims of rampant voter fraud. Some of his messages have been flagged by Twitter as disputed or misleading.
A US presidential election traditionally ends when a candidate concedes defeat. But Trump has shown no sign he's ready to do so. His team of lawyers is pursuing a strategy of challenging the results in court.

Democratic candidate Joe Biden has declared victory over Republican incumbent Donald Trump in the US presidential election,.
Biden called for unity in a speech he made in the state of Delaware.
He said, "The people of this nation have spoken. They have delivered us a clear victory, a convincing victory. A victory for 'We the people.' We have won with the most votes ever cast for a presidential ticket in the history of this nation -- 74 million. I'm humbled by the trust and confidence you have placed in me. I pledge to be a president who seeks not to divide, but to unify, who doesn't see red states or blue states, only sees the United States."
Vote counting is still underway, but NHK's US partner ABC News projects Biden will win Pennsylvania. Combined with his earlier wins, it would give him more than the 270 electoral college votes needed to take the White House.
ABC News is also projecting Biden will win Nevada and its 6 electoral college votes. He is also leading in Arizona and Georgia, but a winner has yet to be declared in either state.
Trump issued a statement after media outlets reported Biden's win. In it, he said, "The simple fact is this election is far from over." The president has repeatedly made unfounded claims about the election process, especially mail-in balloting and vote counting.
He posted on Twitter, "The observers were not allowed into the counting rooms. I won the election, got 71,000,000 legal votes."
A US presidential election traditionally ends when a candidate who's projected to lose concedes defeat, but Trump has yet to do so. His campaign has launched a series of legal challenges, but it is unclear whether there is sufficient evidence to substantiate the claims.

US media outlets report that Democratic challenger Joe Biden is the apparent winner of the state of Pennsylvania in the presidential election and will become the next US president.
The television networks announced on Saturday that Biden is projected to be President-elect as he is certain to win more than 270 Electoral College votes.
Biden is expected to declare victory in his home state of Delaware later in the day.
During the campaign Biden criticized Trump, saying that the president failed to prevent the coronavirus from spreading across the country.
He pledged to respect diversity and work for unity of people who are largely divided after Trump tore the country apart.
In a statement issued after the media reports, he said, "I am honored and humbled by the trust the American people have placed in me and in Vice President-elect Harris."
He wrote, "With the campaign over, it's time to put the anger and the harsh rhetoric behind us and come together as a nation."
He stressed, "We are the United States of America. And there's nothing we can't do, if we do it together."
If his victory is confirmed, he will take office as the 46th president of the United States in January for the next four years and Kamala Harris will become vice president.
Harris tweeted, "This election is about so much more than Joe Biden or me. It's about the soul of America and our willingness to fight for it. We have a lot of work ahead of us. Let's get started."
Biden's victory will put an end to Trump's bid for another four-year term.
Trump issued a statement, saying that the election is far from over. He wrote, "Joe Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any of the highly contested states."
Trump also wrote, "Beginning Monday, our campaign will start prosecuting our case in court to ensure election laws are fully upheld and the rightful winner is seated."
Trump continues to make claims of fraudulent mail-in ballots and threatens to take his fight to courts although that could be a lengthy process to finalize the election result.
Biden will turn 78 on November 20 and become the oldest president to be inaugurated, renewing the current record set by Trump when he took office at the age of 70 in 2017.
Trump will become the first president in 28 years who fails to be re-elected. Former president George H.W. Bush failed in 1992.

Japan's Crown Prince Akishino has been proclaimed to the public as heir to the Imperial throne. It was the last in a series of ceremonies associated with the succession of the throne.
The Prince, whose given name is Fumihito, became first in the line of succession in May last year. That was when his older brother, Emperor Naruhito, ascended the throne after their father's abdication.
The ceremony to proclaim him Crown Prince was originally scheduled for April of this year. But it was postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Sunday's ceremony was attended by adult members of the Imperial Family and the heads of the three branches of government.
Emperor Naruhito said, " I hereby hold the Ceremony for Proclamation of the Crown Prince and as provided by the Imperial House Law, broadly proclaim to the people in Japan and the world that Prince Fumihito is the Crown Prince."
The Crown Prince then expressed his resolve to fulfill his duties.
Crown Prince Akishino said, "I am truly humbled to be granted the occasion of the Ceremony for Proclamation of the Crown Prince. I extend my deep thoughts to the responsibility as Crown Prince as I continue to fulfill my duties."
Prime Minister Suga Yoshihide delivered a congratulatory speech on behalf of the attendees.
Suga said, " Together with Her Imperial Highness the Crown Princess, His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince has long assisted Their Majesties the Emperor and Empress and Their Majesties the Emperor Emeritus and Empress Emerita and has earnestly carried out activities of the Imperial Family, such as visiting disaster-hit areas and promoting international goodwill. Through those activities, the people of Japan respect and revere Their Imperial Highnesses and how they engage closely with people. It is to our great delight that the Ceremony for Proclamation of Crown Prince is hereby held."
Due to the pandemic, the guest list was shortened. Some events were canceled, including a banquet, a ceremonial motorcade, and a chance for the public to sign their names in a book of well wishes.
