Time magazine has named President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris its “Person of the Year” over defeated President Donald Trump.
Edward Felsenthal, Time‘s editor-in-chief, said Biden and Harris won the award for “changing the American story, for showing that the forces of empathy are greater than the furies of division, for sharing a vision of healing in a grieving world.”
Felsenthal shared that this is the first time that a vice president has been named a “Person of the Year,” by Time, despite all elected president’s since Franklin D. Roosevelt receiving the honor.
